thats ridiculous, just like all aspects of life there have to be a little leeway...

like getting pulled over for doing 5 mph over the speed limit, what kinda of cop is goin to be the a-hole to write a ticket for 5 over? is it against the law? shure it is... is it bad for Public relations... well of coarse

she might have gotten one boy in trouble but i alot of people are going to be mad, she would have been better off to let it go. apparently someone is trying to make a point after all it made it to the news

I'd send that little dolt home too.

That gun obviously doesn't belong to that LEGO character. It looks like a GI Joe gun. LEGO characters have LEGO guns. Stupid kid, put the right gun with the right character.

Stuff has gotten ridiculous even in the 3 years since I graduated high school. A kid got kicked out of school for bringing a gun to sell to another student. It was in his truck not in the school. It wasnt even loaded and there were no cases or ammo anywhere in the truck. It has gotten ridiculous. I remember people bringing there shotguns, rifles, and bows to school all the time. I mean most schools around here get excused absences for the first day of hunting season and they cant bring an unloaded gun to school and it be in there truck. It is just stupid.

You have got to be kiddin me. When i was in school, the teachers used to have us bring antlers in after hunting season , we would then take files, and make our own stag handled knives. This country needs to start gaining common sense. I'm fortunate and glad that my old high school has reintroduced a rifle team ( in fact it's even a "lettered" sport the same as football), and that my daughter has made the team. I think the teachers as well as parents need to be allowed to discipline when deemed necessary, like it used to be not all that long ago.

You need to stand up and put a stop to this stuff, government doesn't have common sense, never did , that's your job to get these people kicked out of a job till they start doing the will of the people.
