Are you being deliberately obtuse? The two who carried out the Columbine attack also laid bombs around the school too.
I read that he's been offered tours of Google and the Mars Rover facilities thanks to Twitter. Good on the lad. This anti-terrorist hysteria is getting silly, I'll bet he has a bright future ahead of hiim... if he doesn't spend it all in Gitmo.

Not going to bother arguing with you. It wasn't done by a 14 year old with his homemade digital clock.
Not only that, the cops had intelligence on one of the perpetrators of that shooting. Guess hey must've had intelligence on this 14 year old too then?

Maybe people should learn how to tell the difference between a load of wires and a screen and an explosive device before calling the police who cuff a 14 year old boy.

Would the average American teacher have bomb detecting skills?
I have no idea what a suitcase bomb looks like personally.
Child suicide bombers are a thing in this day and age unfortunately..
I still don't know why a clock needs to be in a suitcase, sounds like a prank gone wrong to me and the kid is playing the innocence card.

looks like a suitcase.
Because most/all of the killings in american schools have been orchestrated by muslims?
Oh wait, no, they were all done by white Americans...
But then humans are terrible at analysing risk properly.
Are you retarded?
"Hmm, I think that might be a bomb, please show it to me so that it can detonate in my face".
If something is suspicious, you stay away from it!
Common sense says that maybe the Engineering teacher the boy was going to show the clock to should have been asked to checked it out?
The clock was mounted in a suitcase because with any such circuits the wiring can easily break/disconnect if the pcb's are not secured somewhere while transporting.

They didn't think it was an actual bomb though, otherwise they wouldn't have waited half the day to ask him about it and involve police.
The real issue here is the undue amount of suspicion he was treated with, as well as the concerning and wholly insensitive attitude of the police both during and after the fact.

Can you tell the difference? Or more importantly would you want to make that judgement considering the potential consequences?
Personally I've no idea what a real bomb looks like, I've never seen one. But maybe that's just me?
Perhaps it was correct that the police attended if the teacher genuinely thought it was a bomb, but upon realising it was in fact not a bomb and was just a clock made by a bright pupil, that should have been that.
The fact he was arrested and suspended is absurd.
