So not the school’s authority extends to outside school hours on private property? I would get a lawyer to explain that no matter how “concerned” they were, they had no legal authority to do anything.

The City codes referenced in this case are as follows:

City Code 38-3, primarily section (d) “ Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section, it shall be unlawful for any person to discharge any firearm, spring-propelled rifle or pistol, from, on, across or within one hundred fifty (150) yards of any building, dwelling, street, sidewalk, alley, roadway or public land or public place within the city limits.”

Airsoft guns fire a 6mm plastic pellet. The more expensive ones are CO2 powered and can cause some pain and maybe damage if shot in the eye. The spring powered ones are much cheaper and don’t have much velocity.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918-1956

That pretty much sounds like a ban on BB guns or even toy guns like the one in the story. It would be hard to find a place in the city limits that did not fall under one or more of those categories.

RE :”Okay if he had brought it to school I would understand but he was playing on his own lawn? How dafuq is that any of the school’s concern?”

I get annoyed when the Maryland school buses turn on their flashing lights, indicating all cars on both sides of road must stop moving(by law), while the bus itself is still moving.

It makes no sense to me.

A few years ago an Ice Cream truck came in my neighborhood with a hand sign that popped out saying stop as if it was a school bus, I just ignored it.

Too much demonization of zombies in movies.

Eating brains is their ‘orientation’ , part of their being.

Stop the slurs on zombies.

(pdf file, right at the top)

The problem is that a school bus stop is legally school territory in Virginia. The principal is notified, who must notify the superintendent, who then may contact the police.

It doesn’t matter if the student was on private property when he fired on students at the bus stop.

Yes, I agree that they are stretching it, but in this case, with several legal contrivances, like the airsoft gun being a “gun”, the letter of the law is on their side.

In a sane place, this would be handled as a school disciplinary manner, but the state of Virginia is weird about guns.

Ever kid in that school in his grade should whip one out in a show of solidarity.

What are they going to do, suspend them all?

LOL. How asinine. I bet most people abide by it out of ignorance.

When are we going to stand up for our rights? It seems that the man who stood up against COMMON CORE is correct. WE ARE A BUNCH OF CATTLE. We have forgotten, that we are a free people, and we have rights, guaranteed to us by the constitution. Yet we stand there with our thumbs up our @$$, and do nothing. I guess these people are correct. All they have to do is make an example of one of us, and we scurry and hide under our beds. YOU DESERVE THE GOVERNMENT YOU GET.

“He said the gun was for shooting birds and pointed up at geese flying over. I was both warmed, he is a real boy, and afraid for him. Being a real boy is going to be dangerous.”

Dont worry. I’m sure the geese cant shoot back. ;-)
