Are you suggesting that dark skinned people with bags or electronics are somehow not only a threat, but are attempting to instill terror in others???
haha good one..... you must be trolling for stars.
The ONLY thing I'm suggesting is that it looks like a bomb...... just playing with Jadestar thoughts.
No, once again, lack of explosives = not a bomb. How many times do I need to repeat myself???

I noticed something about this kids "home made" clock, it is not "home made" at all, it is very much a cheap walmart large LED alarm clock he dissembled and then mounted, poorly I might add in to a case. fubar.ga...
You will notice the 9 volt backup batter connector (anyone who owns an alarm clock knows this is so you don't have to reset the darned thing is power goes out), the surface soldered ribbon to the LED display, the transformers inclusive wiring from the AC power cord to convert this to 12 volt DC system. The is kid is as about as much a "genius" as I am jesus.

I think a picture is worth a thousand words. Only a sympathizer would call what the kid made a clock.

I "sympathize" with any 14 year-old kid who gets arrested at school for showing initiative and gets attacked in response. I am sure that *IS* what UnifiedSerenity meant, correct?
Mohamed Mohamed, Ahmed’s father, told WFAA-TV of Dallas-Fort Worthon Thursday that the teenager would no longer attend MacArthur High School and that the family would explore other education options, including home-schooling.

Good decision, Mohamed Mohamed. Educate him at home.

The boy made a Explosive-less bomb...
Let's look at the components he used, shall we?
1.) Digital Clock
2.) Pencil case that resembles a Suitcase
3.) Circuit boards with a lead connector that attaches or connects to a source
Conclusion: The Boy Genius made a freaking bomb and now his friends and family are staging an un-armed invasion of the world!
Am I wrong?

Yes.
You are wrong.
You are basing your premise on a wholly bigoted position.
Whatever happened to kids being kids and being curious and building things? I know I built stuff when I was a kid. I was always messing with electronics, taking things to pieces etc. I had several electronics kits.
When did your society decide that such things stopped?
Heres an interesting story
White kid builds nuclear reactor and Homeland Security offers help

Is that kid a potential terrorist?

So by all means then, slap the cuffs on the 9th Grader.
