PRINCETON, N.C. (WTVD) -- According to law enforcement officials, punishments are not the same for students and school administrators who commit crimes on school property in Johnston County.

One day after a Johnston County high school senior was expelled for having an unloaded gun on campus, ABC11 learned administrators only suspended an assistant principal at the same school for a similar incident last year.

Repeal the disastrous federal law that has put us in this insane situation:

That would be the sane non-violent approach. I certainly hope it happens. Unfortunately, I have lost faith in a majority of Americans, and a few more nudges it won't be non-violent.

He should have just kept his mouth shut. He should have known who he was dealing with, numb from the neck up liberal zombies who can’t use common sense. He should know that this is the day when honesty is punished and bad behavior is rewarded.

The kid did the right thing. He didn't knowingly bring a shotgun to school. He realized it afterwards and tried to correct the situation. It seems Cole is gaining quite a bit of fame in this and a bunch of liberals are being made an example. Support the kid, ruin the lives of liberals. That is justice.

He's also charged with a felony according to the blaze.

I think some pressure needs to be placed to drop the felony charge.

The District Attorney is Susan Doyle. She is elected to a four year term. When is she up for election?
