    Is this the road we are going down? Kids can't even have imaginations anymore?

    Wow. What the hell.

    Every single kid at our school would be suspended today. Cops and Robbers, Cowboys and Indians, heck even Red Rover would warrant a suspension. The leaders today need to get a grip and stop punishing natural human behavior.

    Thought Police. Just the thought of throwing a grenade is as dangerous as actually throwing one.

    This is why hard and fast no tolerance policies are a fucking joke. We pay public officials to use their brains and make reasonable decisions. This is certainly not that.

    HS theatre production of West Side Story was nixed at a PA school last fall because it depicted a knife fight. The idiots are in charge folks.

    This is absurd and outrageous.

    Radical liberals/progressives have infiltrated government, media, academia, and law. This is exactly what happens when that happens. It will get so bad and so ridiculous, that ultimately the people will rise up and get rid of these idiots. In the meantime, I guess we just shudder at their idiocy.






    PS --- ban imaginary grenades :D :D :D

    I'd be so pissed if this were my kid. I would raise a stink to the administration for sure. I have a 9 year old son that loves military and police. I can't imagine him being suspended for playing what normal boys play. But, I think my school has more common sense than this.

    No doubt school authorities already had him on Ritalin to treat his depression.

    No they won't. Just about everyone is disgusted with Congress these days, but it's always someone else's Representative or Senator. And the end result is that the same old folks return. The electorate is pretty foolish in this regard.
