The whole purpose of "Zero Tolerance" is so educators in positions of responsibility never have to take any responsibility.

He probably said KABOOM, which, of course, made the entire administrative staff wet their pants.

“The whole purpose of “Zero Tolerance” is so educators in positions of responsibility never have to take any responsibility. “

A male friend recently retired as a 5th grade teacher. He said, “Oh, my goodness. Kids played finger guns all the time, made bang noises and pretended to shoot each other. If we’d played by those rules I’d have sent every kid to the office for suspension. Ridiculous.”

Proving once again that school administrators are morons. No wonder our next generation is so screwed up that they will have to be wards of the state.

Notice also that they are training kids to turn in their classmates.

Actually I have the exact opposite opinion. I blame the educators 100% for acting stupidly in this case.

Remember, zero tolerance problems keep people in authority positions from actually thinking and making a judgement.

Knowing them, no wonder they love zero tolerance policies: no thinking, no judgments.

I remember drawing that exact same picture dozens of times in school! It’s the quintessential bomb.

Should be better labeled as “zero intelligence” policy.

Drawing a picture is considered outrageous behavior, but indoctrinating kids into worshipping The One is perfectly OK.

Zero tolerance = zero common sense

Looks like a pretty good picture. Kid could have a future as a graphic artist. Rocky and Bulwinkle ride again! . . . What’s that? Oh, you punished him, crushed his spirit and his hopes and dreams? Oh, I see. Great job school administrators. Sleep well on that.

“He has autism. He has an official diagnosis. They know that he communicates differently. It’s obvious when you communicate with him that he doesn’t speak the same way and communicate and think the same way as typical children,” the frustrated mother said.

I feel for her, but this suspension would be sheer lunacy if her son didn't have autism, too.

God forbid some poor kid in art class doesn't draw an apple or a pumpkin just right.

Yeah well, our guys are being taught zero intolerance for violence. Those little muzzies are being taught to strap on bombs, and kill infidels......someday they will meet.

Hey! They had no choice; bombs used to really look like that. The kid could grow up to be a grenadier. Or a dragoon. Then you would all be sorry.

I still have a drawing my son did in about the 4th grade, depicting a gun-toting robber stealing money from a man on a public street. The masked thief is grinning, but directly above him a cliché torpedo-shaped bomb is about to fall on him. I thought it was hilarious, but today that drawing - a gun AND a bomb - would probably get my son expelled and forced into mandatory psychological counseling. (By the way, my now-31-year-old son is doing just fine, working for the Seattle Seahawks, and he has never shot or bombed anyone.)

showed his drawing to some older students at Hill Crest Middle School in Greenville. They reported it to school officials.

IMHO....that is the larger problem. Indoctrination and wussification phase complete. These 'older students' will now be able to report to the FEMA re-education camps with proper docility.

These public schools - do they still have history textbooks? Assuming they do, are there any illustrations of various conflicts from history? Any paintings of the battle of Gettysburg, maybe, or perhaps “The Shot Heard ‘round the World”? Do any of these illustrations include depictions of actual weapons, or is everyone holding flowers and other inoffensive items?
