But that would have required thought regarding her actions.

We're not there yet, but...

In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do, and say
Is in the pill you took today

sieze her parents property.

Please don't give them any ideas!

[Philip_the_evangelist]

There ARE more appropriate ways of responding,

You mean like, take away the inhaler, send her back to class, and ask a parent to go to the school to talk to the principal about an appropriate low-key solution.

Surely you jest!

"'Zero Tolerance' rules were made to eliminate thought from the schools..."

And it's working!

No thinking shown here; progress is being made, for sure.

She should've said it was RU486 in liquid form. She'd have a medal from Planned Parenthood today.

[2Jedismom]

She'e obviously a dangerous felon!

Oh my...I used to share raisins soaked overnight in whiskey with my best friend when I was a kid. You don't think they'll take my jedis away if they find out, do you? ;-)

She'd have a medal from Planned Parenthood today.

It does make me wonder at the school administrators' reaction had she been distributing condoms to the boys.

[Rebelbase]

Consideration of Felony charges against this kid is way overboard and out of line.

[realpatriot71]

It is my patriotic duty to snitch on you. The CPS is on it's wy to your home as I am writing this message. For the good of the children of course!

When are parents going to wake and learn that public schools are the most dangerous places for their kids to be today? Zero-tolerance policies have destroyed common sense and school administrators don't give a damn if they destroy your child's life in the process. This incident should have been solved among the parents, the girl, and the principal. You may think that your child will get away with a juvenile record, but what if he or she wants to attend one of the military academies? They go through your record with a fine-tooth comb and they have access to juvenile records. If you don't want to take a chance that your child may wind up in the legal system one way or another, don't send him to a public school with zero-tolerance policies. TOO MANY STUPID PEOPLE (SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS) HAVE TOO MUCH POWER TO DESTROY TOO MANY YOUNG PEOPLES' LIVES.
