When I read this, I almost fell out of my chair laughing. I showed this to other teachers in the teachers lounge of this rough NYC high school, and they broke into peals of laughter as well. We had just come in from an extended fire drill in the 6 degree wind chill factor weather outside. Why would we have an extended fire drill in such weather? Because some idiot student sprayed the third floor of the building with pepper spray, and we had to evacuate. I had trouble breathing, as I have asthma. Outside, a tiny Indian girl was having such a severe asthma attack that she had to be taken away by ambulance. All so some dumba@@ kid can have 30 seconds of selfish fun.
I could just imagine an intruder coming into a NYC school and having to face down rows of students sending forth a barrage of beans, corn, and tomato sauce. Right?

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

To tell the truth when I was teaching (retired last June)we were told to sit on the floor in the classroom, and remain quiet.
Being a science teacher, I can assure you the first person to enter my classroom would have gotten an HCL bath right in the face.

The teacher had a good idea.
If the kids throw cans, they will draw fire from the gunman, away from the teacher.
The theory is that not every gunman will have enough ammo for everyone.

Just wait until someone is KILLED by a ‘canned good’.
Then they will cry for the banning of cans! They can then classify them as “assault weapons”.

...and there are STILL FReepers, ON THIS SITE, that send their kids to schools like this - probably a MAJORITY of people reading this.
SICKENING.

Arming kids with cans that can be used as weapons gives them a sense of empowerment, the school said. Isn't that what they say about gun owners? Unless the little tikes have arms like Nolan Ryan, it just maybe is a false sense of empowerment. Of course, if you are Crocodile Dundee or Charlie Lang you are good to go.

I guess the first place to look for the center of ignorance would be our so-called education system. Funny they aren’t born that stupid, they actually go to school for it.
