The school and police arrested him on suspicion of a hoax bomb. Is your opinion that their stated reason for arresting the kid was just for fun?
Well, no. Ahmed has admitted to prior suspensions, a family friend admitted to prior suspensions, and several media outlets have reported on his prior suspensions. The specifics within his school records are private but the suspensions themselves are not a secret. Everyone knows about the movie projector incident and the bubbles in the bathroom incident. His father could give permission for those records to be available but he hasn't....and won't....because it would support everything the "other side" has been saying. Do well-behaved kids who follow the rules get regularly suspended? Not where I'm from. Every single one of Ahmed's comments regarding the teachers, other students, the administration, and the police motivations have been subjective. No problem with any of that, I see. And it's the police. If one chooses to be an asshole and not cooperate with the police, you take your chances. Nonsense. His sisters set up the twitter account. The entire family stood there during Ahmed's initial press conference. They have accompanied him at every appearance, meeting, meal, you name it. I guess you missed the part where they said they will sue. Cool places? Lol. There isn't one place he's been that I personally would find "cool".....particularly where he is today in Qatar.
Yes, and there is a damn good reason why he was never charged and was released that very same day. Just because the police arrest you for something doesn't make it so, my friend. And to answer your question, no I do not think they did it for fun.....I think they did it out of ignorance and because they thought they would "make an example" of him.
I'm glad you actually wrote this down. I want you to think about what you are saying makes him a trouble maker.....he was blowing bubbles in the bathroom. Bubbles. Like in a pink bottle with a little plastic ring cap that you blow soapy water through to make bubbles. Yep, sounds like a future killer if I've ever heard of one. The other incident was because he was attacked by kids who were calling him "ISIS boy" and he chose to fight back. What was he supposed to do? Just take the ass whipping in the name of not offending white people? Give me a break. His father will not release his records because it is his child for Christ's sake and he doesn't owe any explanation to morons like you who expect the worse from he and his family. Why should he indulge you? Who the fuck do you think you are? Bull shit. Furthermore, jmg was the one who used second hand information about why the kid was arrested and I called him out for the subjective nature of the statement that he was passive-aggressive. You are extrapolating what you want from our conversation to suit your feeble argument. Stop it. Sure the family stood with him, they are his family. Let me reiterate that he is 14 years old. Were they supposed to send him out there alone? He cannot drive, he cannot travel alone so why in the hell wouldn't they be with him. You are now officially grasping at straws and you need to put the shovel down and stop digging this ridiculous hole for yourself. As to your pictures, you can tell that this kid and his family really hate America.
Those photos do kinda support the idea that the kid and his family enjoy publicity. Perhaps even more than the kid likes science and tinkering.
you do understand they were invited there, right? how does going some place where you were invited and having your pictured made with the execs make you a publicity hound?
Kids enjoy attention! What a shock! Todays kids take 200 selfies trying to find the right one to post online. Take a look anywhere online, amigo. You have never seen so many narcissistic, self-absorbed egocentrics in your life. There is a large and disturbing generation of them.
Exactly, which is why the kid made a hoax bomb. He knows he can get insane attention from the white folks who want everyone to know that they are definitely positively not racist for sure not one bit all and don't you forget it.
