Why is that a bad idea? What common sense would dictate what this child has gone through?

A tiny modicum of common sense from the police or school authorities would go a long way here.

It's a bad idea because pretty much ANYONE with a little common sense could have predicted that there would be a realistic probability of a BAD outcome by bringing that to school. Even if it's just a little homemade clock project.

What common sense tells one that bringing an electronics project to school is a bad idea, exactly?
