Your comment is a great observation.
Now tell me again how we are going to save the Republic? The one I grew up in is no more.
What can be done for him? How did it even get to this point, where / who was his legal representation (I wonder).
This simply *isn’t right*, from beginning to end. But here it is.
Same here. I think about the Boy Scout knife that I carried in my pocket daily all throughout my school years.
When I was in H.S. every boy had pocket knife in his pants at school, that was in the mid 60s.
You know what the “kid” is REALLY “guilty” of?
Believing in self-defense, with the best means at hand.
Leftists HATE the idea of people that can defend themselves, and for several reasons.
The dependent sheeperals look at someone who can defend themselves as pointing out how shamefully dependent said sheeperals are.
The “ruling class” leftists hate the idea of someone defending themselves from thuggery - BECAUSE THEY INTEND TO USE THUGGERY on people.
Also the illegal search under the 4th means the evidence (knife) is inadmissible.
Unless he signed consent to search as part of enrollment. He may have.
I had teachers ask to borrow my Buck folder on occasion. Graduated 1987.
Zero tolerance? Zero intelligence.
A whole bunch of little Nazis need to have their asses kicked (literally) and told to leave this *good* kid alone.
Spot on regarding the anarch-tyranny reference. Pournelle has referenced that frequently over the years in his blog.
The judges need to be named and added to an “enemies of the Constitution” list.
According to this 12/xx/13 news story, he was asked and granted permission for the search.
Mistake #1.
I hope the kid hires the junk-yard-attack-dog-meanest lawyer in Ohio and, literally, sues everyone in sight who GROSSLY VIOLATED his Constitutional Rights!
Somewhere, somehow, someway, we have got to put a stop to the police state!
If nothing else, at least this poor kid is going to learn a lot more about his government a lot faster than his peers.
I carried a pocket knife just about every day of my school career (still carry one every day BTW). I wasn’t the only one either. Most boys did. There were plenty of fights in school, yet no one ever thought about pulling out a pocket knife to stab someone.
I may sound like an old fuddy duddy, but between this type of stuff and video games I am so glad I am not growing up today.
After so many of these ridiculous incidents WHY HAVENT ANY REPUBS PROPOSED LEGISLATION TO PREVENT THIS?

Ashtabula area; have ya’ll heard anything about Jordan Wiser’s situation? We really need Quinn and Rose...
For the same reason they don't suggest repeal of the NFA or GCA, or seriously fight abortion, or seriously try repealing Obamacare, or seriously attack the debt — if they did any of that, they couldn't use that issue to scare up more votes.
