This is what it has come to, in the US and to a slightly lesser extent Europe. Wrong name wrong ethnicity. Arrest of 14-Year-Old Student for Making a Clock: the Fruits of Sustained Fearmongering and Anti-Muslim Animus https://theintercept.com/2015/09/16...s-15-years-fear-mongering-anti-muslim-animus/ Someone explain how can this cop be this ****ing ******ed. "“police spokesman James McLellan said that, throughout the interview, Ahmed had maintained that he built only a clock, but said the boy was unable to give a ‘broader explanation’ as to what it would be used for.”" Didn't have a broader explanation for why he made a clock for school project and wat the clock was for, like telling the time? How dumb are US cops This is proof that "i am doing nothing wrong so I dont have to worry" is a fallacy. You do not judge if you are doing anything wrong, even making a clock for school is a crime if you are Arab in some places. A spate of arrests of teenagers in the UK on terrorism offences Can one not see the direction we area headed in. This is anyting but an isolated event More nonsense from ******s with authority "But even now, “police say they may yet charge him with making a hoax bomb — though they acknowledge he told everyone who would listen that it’s a clock.”" Here is the 14 year old would be terrorist, NASA T on n'all. ****ing shameful, police state please log in to view this image
I just wonder how the police got involved, did they see him walking down the street and just think he looked suspicious or was he doing stuff that aroused the suspicion eg posting joke pictures on facebook of his project so that it looked like a bomb? Is there any back up from school that it was for a prearranged project? etc As usual there is more than one way to report a story and I just think there is more to this than the cops just suddenly deciding to arrest him.
I once got in trouble at school for making a clock out of a potato. I was always late getting in school assembly in the mornings, one of the teachers( he was from St helens)got bored of caning me for it and told me "if you want to get into school on time you need to get up at 8 0'clock" Got home and had to make one out of a watch and a spud, and he wasn't happy when I brought it in to school with me. And gave me an extra 6 whacks with the cane for being a cheeky ****.
I know right, Student of 14 makes clock with electronics.. I automatically think hey well done you. Like wtf. what is worse is he was arrested for it, the cops should never had arrested him. reportedly the cops said I know it would be him, when he was shown to them. As in "I knew it would be the arab".
According to PNAC the civil rights group the FBI and police have been terrorising Mulsims to spy on their communities and when they refuse they get harrassed no end. There was one who recorded the calls from the FBI that I listened to, the agent actually threatened him with his life
Just seen it on the 10 o'clock news. No matter how you cut it, it was fcking stupid And you know just how stupid it is when Obama is trying to do a charm offensive with a tweet to the lad I always see irony in every day bull5hit. Students with guns have killed more people in American schools, and yet a kid with a radio gets arrested
I found it. This guy did nothing wrong, he was being forced by the FBI to spy on Muslims. He refused The audio of the call is at 7 mins and a transcript is on screen. Video Transcrript please log in to view this image He's literally advising the guy, if you dont do what we say, you'll get taken out.
Just seen some that about obama, I wonder if obama would have tweeted and invited him to whitehouse if he was white?
Because there is some really bad ass fear mongering going on in the US and in the UK. Quite a few children have been arrested in the UK this year under terrorism laws Dude I will tell you how bad it is getting, in Farmington and New York they are installing new street lights that record people and even analyse voice stress levels. I **** you not. Orwellian nothing to do with terrorism and everything to do with total surveillance and control of the population
When armed cops show up to get children, you gotta say something, ffs. We should never stand for that. Or do you wait until it's your turn. Remember this kid thought he was doing nothing wrong. Mind you its special case over there, 6 cops show up to close down a 6 year old girl's lemonade stand and start shouting at the girls. They are animals
This photo, is cops raidng an organic coop because they were selling unpasturised milk. Are they ****ing for real, in the video people are screaming in fear in the place, ludicrous please log in to view this image http://www.treehugger.com/corporate...-organic-raw-milk-co-op-guns-drawn-video.html You literally are in mortal danger dealing with cops over there for even such trivial things as a broken taillight..
Just seen that it was the teachers who were concerned that it may be the infrastructure of a bomb, it also appears that he had done it to impress his teacher so it wasnt as if school had asked him to make it or knew why he should have that sort of stuff. This kid seems to be a pretty bright geeky nerd, now lets honest he wouldnt be the first geeky nerd to bring something dangerous into school (how many shootings in last decade?) so you can maybe understand why school would be a bit nervous about it no matter what his ethnicity.. I knew of two incidents when I was a teenager, one was a very bright lad who did the almost script written blowing up the shed with his chemistry set and another not so bright chap who blew off a couple of fingers with a homemade weedkiller bomb. So whilst its still pretty bad the story is maybe not quite the stupid racist police line that you like to perpetuate.
Everyone was ******ed to react, but he was blatantly on the WUM "Yeah I'm just making a clock. What's the most convenient design? Probably a briefcase with a large LCD display and wires all over the place." Obama and Zuckerberg are idiots too. Him being mistreated does not make his **** clock "cool".
