Yes, ever since the first man Adam [NOT Bill Clinton] took of the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge between Good & Evil and ate of it. Just for the record, Eve took the fruit, Adam was just the poor guy who got nagged into eating it by his know it all wife.

This the ONLY time that I would wish to be an attorney, and a good one at that. I’d offer my services in the quest to totally screw, crucify, eviscorate, and bury each and every one of the public school idiots that perpetuated this farce. Education degrees...indeed. Perhaps they should study something a bit more complex...such as basket weaving.

What’s the punishment for having an NRA logo sticker on your lunch box?
Sooner or later, these kids are going to realize that the only way to be counterculture is to dress nice and be conservative.

Use the Lefties’ weapon against them. Sue the administrators personally and the school corporately for emotional distress caused by abuse of power. Even if the suit does not succeed, the threat of being sued and having to defend themselves might push the head-honchos to send their underlings to reeducation camps to learn how to use discretion when implmenting “zero tolerance”—zero tolerance without intelligent implementation becomes abusive. But, of course, that would cost the parents time and money. It’s a shame that even turning the Lefties’ weapon against them can only be done at great cost and expense to the victims.

For `show-and-tell’, Elk City (OK) Elementary school, I took an SKS rifle with fold-out chisel bayonet, and a Viet Cong flag that my father liberated somewhere around Kontum.
Everyone thought they were really cool. Today I suppose they’d whack my pee-pee . . . the `tards.

Oh, the horror. When I was a kid, we had toy guns, and used to play war in the woods and fields. I can't imagine what the penalty for that would be today.

Belief that an inanimate object is somehow so inherently evil that a mere sketched image of it can harm someone has got to be a mental illness. I have no clinical experience in this but I would imagine the cure would involve a gradual introduction to the object.
I would stress that anyone this ill is highly unpredictable and a great deal of caution should be used when introducing them to dangerous objects such as motor vehicles, firearms or sharpened pencils.

Let’s see. Can they suspend me if I mail them a drawing of a gun and say, “Guns protect the freedom of idiots like you.”

how to use discretion when implmenting zero tolerancezero tolerance without intelligent implementation becomes abusive Discretion and zero tolerance are mutually exclusive.
The schools tell the teachers/administrators that they won't back them up if they don't enforce zero tolerance and DO use their own discretion, so the teachers err on the "safe" side of being absolutely stupid.
