Sorry Kiera, you gots white people problems.

Don’t expect media sympathy, or even objectivity.

So she actually created something of a scientific nature. Clockmed, not so much...

“On April 23, 2013, Kiera Wilmot conducted a volcano experiment in her Polk County high-school hallway.”

Ugh.... when I went to school rule #1 of the science fair was: NO VOLCANOS.

They’re not “experiments”, and they teach almost nothing about science. They’re just arts and crafts really.

IF these folks had been building bombs and the authorities did nothing, there really would be holy hell. I am not sure what the big deal is. These kids were stupid for not understanding their actions may reasonably be mistaken for something more sinister. The kids clock looks more like a bomb.

If this bright young lady were Muslum, she would be a superstar.

During my Sophomore HS year, my Science Project blew up 3 times, none intentional. Once at school during initial class demonstration (more of a bad leak), twice at home after “enhancements” for regional and state competition.

Had the 2nd home explosion happened at school, it might have tuned out differently. It embedded a Lexan Disk 8” diameter into a cinderblock wall of the basement. That might have ended badly in a room full of kids.

Among Lessons Learned, Pounds per Square inch become much more significant when moving up from a 2.5” turbine to an 8”.

Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion. I’m still disappointed it hasn’t been adopted by the renew energy crowd...

White privilege means having to adhere to standards of decorum, deportment, behavior, and performance with no special considerations.

Melanin-enhanced privilege means you can pretty much get away with any behavior, even coldly-calculated bomb hoaxes conspired with your politically activist family, and be rewarded for by the President of the United States and other (formerly) respected organizations.

I remember doing a science club demonstration of various types of homemade explosives and a flour mixture blew the lid off a paint can hard enough it broke two of the overheat fluorescent lamps. That’s a double violation right there! (And no, the EPA hazmat team was NOT called in!)

I thought I remembered her story. It was reported here on FR a couple of years ago. This story says it was a chemical reaction "bomb." She placed toilet bowl cleaner and aluminum foil in a water bottle and it "exploded" on campus.

This was not a science project, nor was it a volcano. It was also not done indoors, but outside on campus grounds.

> project for her science class

Ahmed Mohammed’s “invention” was not a project for science class. It was not a project for any class.

It was trolling.

Home school or find a private school that’s not run by A-holes.
