EEVBlog - Hobbyist Arrested For Bringing Homemade Clock

NicoleBee says...

I'm sorry, I don't know what to tell you. I asked for some further information about your other message, and got arrogant ranting in return. I do have access to the news. I'm especially interested in what you said about the dad and how he is supposed to figure into things.

That was pretty dismissive.. Are you saying that you don't have access to news? Or . that you only exist in Videosift and need to have everything spoon fed to you?
Are you still arguing that this was just some random Muslim that was picked on by an oppressive state!!
I am saying that there enough facts available for me to say that this is a deliberate action to create a response.

Oh, okay then. Thanks for joining in the discussion.

Sorry for the confusion Nicolebee, I tried to respond to a comment by newtboy that was a response to you, so I lumped you guys together for my comment.
I didn't send you sources for my "claims" because I thought that in the 24 hours since I made my "claims" , that this story has been pretty much been proved as a hoax. I think you can just read the news and see that this is a false story driven by other motives. Its obvious that in the next few days everyone is going to distance themselves from this story. You should probably get ready to let go yourself. This was a well executed trolling.

I don't understand. I asked you for some information related to your claims. Do you have any or not? It's entirely possible this was what happened.

You both seem to be trying very hard to ignore the obvious.
This was a stunt , the kid is a pawn, and you were duped . Its hard to admit that you jumped on the bandwagon, but you should learn when to tap out.

love you guys. TTYL

It seemed to be made clear quite quickly that the clock parts were largely if not entirely stock, and from the look of it I would agree with that. That is mostly what's being seized on right now. I don't know what that means about his intentions, and really, from the guessing and assumptions one way or another, it does not seem that anyone else does either. I guess we'll find out.

Was he circuit bending? Was he simply putting an old clock in a new case? Did he fix it? Was he trying to provoke a reaction? Time will tell. I'll leave the speculation alone, because it's getting pretty ugly.

it is interesting to see how this is playing out.this poor kid is getting used to promote narratives for people who really do not care about this kid,and it appears..he may not even have invented anything.

he probably just did this to impress his teacher and..wow..did things get out of hand fast.

on the one hand you have an authoritarian state who is petrified of brown people pissing themselves,and on the other you have people using this for political expediency to further a narrative.

and all ahmed wanted to do was impress his engineering teacher.(my assumption)

That would be unfortunate if it turned out to be the case. Any citations for us to read up on suggesting such a thing?

and.. now we know , the kid is a troll , His dad is an activist and probably controlled the kid, or the kid is just a good learner (no one said he isn't smart) and trolled on his own.
Obama is inviting the Muslim troll to the white house, maybe Barrack wants another Nobel prize .

When you have a pile of loose electronics, whether it's something you've salvaged from another device or components on a bread board, and you want the assembly to be something close to mobile, where are you going to put them? In a case of some sort, something you have laying around.

It could have just as easily have been mounted in a shoebox. This little beat-up case was just what was chosen. The reasoning behind it being chosen is only what you put into it based on.. Well, whatever is going through your mind in regard to the matter. I only see convenience at first glance, not some nefarious intent.

Also, note the size of the AC/9volt plugs in comparison to the case. I'm not sure it qualifies as a 'briefcase', really.

Why'd he choose a briefcase to stuff electronics into?

If you were a airline security agent, (I mean YOU actually had the job) and that slid through the xray machine, what would you do?

The only reason he thought it was cool to make a briefcase clock is because of the whole "*giggle*, see!!! Terrorist alarm clock! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, cuz you know, like, my name sounds terroristy?? get it? get it ???" situation with his name.

This compares to the kid who got in shit for chewing his pop tart into a gun shape and going "pew pew" at classmates, in that Billy the Pop Tart Kid was a complete clusterfuck from the adults perspective, and this was a clusterfuck started by a juvenile joke gone bad (and then went clusterfuck).

Bomb Clock Kid is a victim of racist overreaction, not complete stupidity.

I want Microsoft to send the Pop Tart Kid an XBox.
