11 year old gifted boy pot leaf, not a pot leaf
So, where is the invite for this bright young child to come to the white house? Where is his Tons of shit from Microsoft? He's been permanently damaged (unlike the boy in this story, who at worst had a little scare from cops, but even that is still in question). Why is he still being punished?
So yeah. If the police did treat him badly, that absolutely needs to be brought to light, and those officers disciplined. That is not acceptable.
But the teachers reactions were not in the wrong, as far as anyone's story goes, even the boys. This kid is basically being rewarded for being a minority who "MIGHT" have been mistreated by police. Everyone grab your weapon and pick a side though, amIrite?
Batrachomyomachy. Look it up.
I agree, Aurora. Our country has some weird priorities sometimes. He's getting all these offers and all this free stuff just because he's a brown kid who got wrongly accused of a hoax bomb. I mean, I'm sure he's really smart, but if it weren't for the narrative, this would all be nothing.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
