Ahmed Mohamed's Clock 'Sure sure doesn't look like any clock I've seen...'

Following-up from last night, "Ahmed Mohamed and the 'Islamophobia' Clock (VIDEO)."

See the comments at the letters to the editor, at the Los Angeles Times, "Readers React, Ahmed Mohamed: The kid with the funny-looking clock":
I guess it's “damned if you do, damned if you don't.” Ahmed's clock sure doesn't look like any clock I've seen.

In fact, it looks like an incendiary device. What if the school officials, wanting to be politically correct, ignored this unusual invention and it turned out to be an explosive? Thankfully it was only a clock, and thankfully the school was wise enough to check it out.

I doubt that Ahmed's ethnicity or religion had anything to do with how he was treated. Please don't let accusations of racism overshadow security precautions.

Ahmed has shown the most maturity so far by his response to events that went out of control.

Plus, from Kyle Smith, at the New York Post, "How Ahmed's clock became a false, convenient tale of racism."
