Ruby 2.3.4 does not catch Argument error when comparing DateTime with String, while Ruby 2.1.5 catches it and return false.

[Hanmac (Hans Mackowiak)]

@derekzwy it is fixed in Ruby2.4.1 and active_support 5.1.1

it looks like the bug does happen in your active_support version.
Try to update to a newer one.
