Family: Ahmed Mohamed, clock-making teen, transferring to another school
CNN ^ | 09/18/2015 | Ashley Fantz and AnneClaire Stapleton

~SNIP~

In middle school, Ahmed said, he had been called "bombmaker" and a "terrorist."

"Just because of my race and my religion," he said, adding that when he walked into the room where he was questioned, an officer reclined in a chair and remarked, "That's who I thought it was."

"I took it to mean he was pointing at me for what I am, my race," the freshman explained.

Ahmed is not going back to MacArthur -- he's transferring to another school, his father Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed said. The family has not yet picked a new school for Ahmed, he said, and is exploring options inside and outside of the country.

Another cooked up episode to create an opportunity to accuse others of “Islamophobia”.

The more I read about this the more I think daddy had a big hand in “testing” the reaction of the school and local law enforcement. We all know how schools are locked down now. And almost impossible to get in to.
Schools are a target. We all know that most are gun free zones. This includes any cops that may patrol large schools.
The fact that Obama wants him in Washington just boggles the mind.

I agre. I doubt that anybody ever said anything like that to him, and I also think the “clock” thing was a set-up. Any kid of any race or supposed religion who brought something that looked like a bomb to school would have been nailed on the spot. And he and daddy know it perfectly well. So does Obama.

“UPDATE: Kid admits forethought – knew it was going to be “suspicious”….”

All the students at his old school understand the bomb threat evinced by young Ahmed. They KNOW it was a feint.

All the school staff know they were set up. They'll never trust this kid again....

So the fact that his old man stood up to a nutcase like Terry Jones is a strike against him?

100% islamic agitprop.

this is why CAIR and Obama knew about it so quickly.

one of the stages of islam when it reaches a certain percentage of a local population is to engage in provocative actions against the majority.

All muslims are terrorists, some are just more extreme than others. You cannot be a muslim without agreeing to the terms of the muslim agreement which is you must be a supporter of terrorism. The muslim user manual is pretty clear...

The groveling to political correctness by the Irving police chief and school district officials has been nauseating. Whatever overreaction there was on their part was understandable and trivial compared to the milking of the story by this wretched family.

Americans have been traumatized by muslim violence for a long, long time, we have right to be suspicious of them. If they don’t like this country they can leave, the sooner the better.

Thats not going to happen.

I mean, imagine the reaction if this kid did turn out to be a bomb maker and ended up blowing up his school. There have been too many people at too high a level of power and celebrity that have come out in his defense. The shift in their credibility would be tectonic.

I’d really like to see a more detailed description of the clock than we’ve had. Was it really just the clock internals removed from the clock casing and remounted inside the pencil case? Or were there modifications? It looks like the LCD display was wired into a motherboard that came from a different source.

immediately after 9/11, we all kept hearing over and over again how life as usual had to go on... else the terrorists will have won.

7 years into our long national Obama nightmare, it’s hard not to believe that the terrorists have in fact won. this country is deliberately being islamicized. once they reach a certain population %, their tactics will switch to being constantly provocative to the majority. this is all pre-planned and coordinated. we are at war and this is an invasion, only the DC ruling elite refuses to recognize it or talk about it.

Have a source on that middle school history of his?

I mentioned in a thread yesterday that an early story on this had the cops saying something like “we figured it would be you” when they showed up. Indicating some prior history.

Which couldn’t be made public for privacy reasons.

Nope. Just Ahmed himself claiming he was called a bomb maker in middle school.

And you’re right. I don’t doubt for a minute that there are school records that cannot be released that show little Mo here has had prior incidents.
