white kid's clock:
muslim kid's 'clock':
added 'muslim feature':
- doesn't tell time, just counts down to 00:00 and 'beeps'
- comes with handy 'deadman's switch' to insure the 'beep' happens

Why is it that so much of the news and actions of Obola & Co seem like it's an April Fool's or from The Onion? Operation Islam Religion of Peace continues..

September 16, 2015 - 01:29 PM EDT Obama invites suspended Muslim teen to the White House By Jordan Fabian and Mark Hensch 9865 Shares
A Texas teenager who was suspended from school for bringing a homemade clock to class received a 21st century invitation from President Obama on Wednesday to visit the White House.
Instead of making a traditional phone call, Obama took to his personal Twitter account to invite Ahmed Mohamed, 14, of Irving, Texas, to show off the device at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
“Cool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House? We should inspire more kids like you to like science. It's what makes America great,” the president tweeted.
Obama’s invitation placed him in the middle of a story that captured national attention and sparked a conversation about racial and ethnic profiling.
Mohamed, who is Muslim, was arrested by Irving police on Monday and suspended from MacArthur High School after teachers mistook his clock for a bomb.
No charges were filed against the ninth-grader, who said he built the clock because he is interested in engineering and technology.
The story went viral on social media. By Wednesday afternoon, 730,000 tweets were made using the hashtag #IStandWithAhmed to discuss the story or show support for Mohamed.
The student's father believes his son was arrested because he is Muslim and named Mohamed. Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed, a Sudanese immigrant, added that the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks may have played a role in the incident.
Irving Independent School District spokeswoman Lesley Weaver defended the actions of teachers and administrators at Mohamed’s school.
“We were doing everything with an abundance of caution to protect all of our students in Irving,” she said, according to the Dallas Morning News.
But the White House disagreed. Press secretary Josh Earnest said “it’s clear some of Ahmed’s teachers failed him” and that the best teachers should “nurture the intellectual curiosity of our students.”
Earnest said Mohamed would be invited to attend Astronomy Night at the White House on Oct. 19, where he and other students will meet with astronauts, scientists and engineers.
The incident appeared to resonate with Obama, who has urged students to pursue education in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields and promoted diversity there.
“Our lead will erode if we don’t make some good choices now,” he said in a February interview with the tech news website Re/code. “We’ve got to have our kids in math and science and it can’t just be a handful of kids, it’s got to be everybody.”
Since his 2008 campaign, Obama has also battled false accusations that he secretly practices Islam. A CNN poll released Sunday showed that three in 10 Americans — and 43 percent of Republicans — believe Obama is a Muslim.
Earnest encouraged the public to use Mohamed’s story as a “teachable moment.”
“This episode is a good illustration of how pernicious stereotypes can prevent even good hearted people who dedicate their lives to educating young people from doing the good work they set out to do,” he said.
A number of other politicians and officials joined in the wave of sympathy for Mohamed, including Education Secretary Arne Duncan, who tweeted “we need to be encouraging young engineers, not putting them in handcuffs. #IStandWithAhmed”
“Assumptions and fear don't keep us safe—they hold us back. Ahmed, stay curious and keep building,” tweeted Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Ahmed brought the clock to school on Monday to impress his engineering teacher, according to the Morning News. But after its alarm went off in the middle of English class, another teacher inspected the device and reported him to a school administrator.
Mohamed, clad in a NASA T-shirt, was suspended for three days and led out of school by police in handcuffs. He has vowed never to take an invention to school again, the Morning News reported.
look closely at the handle.
is that cord a deadman’s switch?
Looks terrifying. </sarcasm>
Obama Exploits Ahmed Mohamed
Sounds like everyone involved overreacted, although the details of why authorities believed it was a bomb are still not clear. What is clear is that Obama’s exploitation of this incidence would make a vulture lose its lunch.
President Obama@POTUS
Cool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House? We should inspire more kids like you to like science. It's what makes America great.
You know you are a useful pawn for the advancement of the islamoliberal agenda when you get invited to the White House over something this trivial.
Nauseatingly, #IStandWithAhmed is trending on Twitter. You would think the police publicly crucified him, as is done to Christians in Islamic lands, so avidly are moonbats milking this inconsequential mishap for every drop of CAIR-endorsed jihadist propaganda value.
There have been 26,892 and counting lethal Islamic terror attacks since 9/11. But no worries; our fears are only due to stereotyping. Ahmed proves that Muslims are not terrorists but merely victims of political incorrectness. So let’s let our guard the rest of the way down and continue to import a quarter of a million potential terrorists per year.

did lil johnny pick up his 'engineering inspiration' from dad?
Holy crap! That’d raise my eyebrows a bit, no matter who it came from.
Ha! Comment of the day!!
RE: “Is that a picture of the clock in question?”
Holy Shite!
Has it crossed anyone else’s mind how funny that this incident:
1. Happened in the Obola-hostile state of Texas?
2. Involved a Muslim kid and family?
3. Casts favorable sympathy on the child of an immigrant?
4. Emphasizes importance of Obola’s STEM education funding?
5. Provides a perfectly timed segue from immigration fears, and may distract America’s growing distrust of Muslims in America, and Europe?
Wonder if this may have been another well coordinated CAIR “we Muslims are victims” publicity stunt?
If so, they’ve likely achieved current objectives to further pacify our citizenry while Islam in America marches on...
So what you’re saying is the white kid is too dumb to build a clock from scratch?
Crucial points, all -

and no deadman's switch would be required
Absolutely
Surprised the kids was sent off to school with something that looked like a film briefcase bomb prop, that he got it into the school.
Lots of trial run testing going on across the nation.
“Holy crap! That’d raise my eyebrows a bit, no matter who it came from.”
Thank the Good Lord for that.
Show up at an Obama speech with something that looks like that. See what happens.
If you listened to Daddy Achmed’s stinging fanatical longue lashing at the school officials who profiled his son you’d think he was a radicalized ISIS member. One thought did to me while he was running his mouth for what seemed forever - Muslim kids DO carry bombs right up to soldiers and then dtonate them; some much younger I might add. Maybe Achmed Jr. knows how to build digital cocks because Daddy Achmed builds bombs for the MB.
No deadman's switch was present.
“No charges were filed against the ninth-grader, who said he built the clock because he is interested in engineering and technology.”
“Interested in engineering and technology.”
And learning how to take off and fly, but not land, a passenger airliner.
“We should inspire more kids like you to like science.”
What does ONP mean by “kids like you”? Muslim kids? That’s rasist. Besides, teach a muslim to fly a plane he crashes it into a building. Teach him electronics...

Because The leftists are trying to intimidate the watchmen so we can be more easily killed.
