1) The engineering teacher could have possibly 'defused' (snicker) this entire situation. Mo showed the clock to the engineering teacher first, teacher told him cool clock, but don't show any other teachers. So, he knew the potential was there. Why not say hey Mo, this could really freak out the librarian, let me keep this (or lets take this to the principal and I'll explain what we have here.) Mo's a smart kid, he'll understand. Crisis averted.
2) Mo did follow the engineering teachers' advise by keeping it in his backpack, but the little fvcker, while obviously smart, evidently doesn't have enough common sense to turn off the alarm on his clock. It was beeping from his backpack in English class. After English class, he showed it to the teacher to explain the beeping.
3) I can't fault the English teacher for being concerned. Explosives come in all shapes and sizes. While the case is described as a pencil case, based on the electrical plug, the case looks to be the size of a small laptop. The case could potentially be lined with explosives.
4)If the admins and police were so damn concerned by it, why did they keep it in the school for so long. Take it out in an open area, and let a bomb squad investigate.
5) Mo should have called for the engineering teacher to bring some common sense to the situation. The teacher should have had plenty on common sense in reserve after not using any in item #1.
6) Those of you slamming Kkott are over reacting as much as the adults in this situation. You're just on the other side of the spectrum. Never let a crisis go to waste boys.
7) Not sure what will fvck up Mo more, the actual event, or the media attention and the politicians and other high profile peeps using Mo to advance their agenda.
