"Geez old student, a rather uncalled for rude response to a fellow freeper who is actually expressing the obvious idiocy of the schools admins. Why the overboard asinine attitude?"
Think about it for a minute: How is a school teacher or administrator supposed to know how to tell the difference between cocaine and powdered sugar? I'm speaking as a teacher, btw. IMHO, it was his opinion that was overboard and asinine. I'll ask you the same thing, since you seem to think all teachers and administrators should know the difference, how the heck do YOU know which is which? Obvious idiocy, indeed!
We're supposed to be experts on everything in the whold freaking world. Why don't you all become teachers, since you know so very much about everything? Heck, all I know is a little geography, and some history, and government, and maybe a little about being a photographer, and aircraft mechanic, and a few other odd little things I've done over the past 50 years. So far as I know, I've never seen real cocaine. I don't know too many teachers who have.
You expect us to be experts in law enforcement, too? Maybe after I finish my master's in special ed, I'll get something in criminal justice. Oh, wait, I need to get some more geography and history, and math, first... I guess it will have to wait a bit longer.
Think about it for a minute: Now that they KNOW it's just powdered sugar, why are they charging this little boy with a FELONY?
Obvious idiocy, indeed!
The point I was making was your comment: "Use your head for something besides a hatrack, okay?" was very mean spirted. I tend not to read anything else when I see attitudes like that on this formally more civil site.
"I've never seen real cocaine. I don't know too many teachers who have."
I never have. We had a bunch of kids crowding around something one time. They were all alarmed it was a "drug." It was a cold capsule. I wonder how many went home and told their moms and dads there were drugs at school.
