[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] A little boy got in serious trouble for bringing in a Lego gun from one of those TINY action Lego figures. The gun was maybe the size of a man's thumbnail. How on earth could anyone mistake that as a real gun? The school went WAY over the top on this, yes. The engineering teacher's word should have held. But to justify the idea of a tiny little toy gun or a pop tart gun, while panning this incident exposes the real reason why pop-tart guns matter - indoctrination.[/quote] I don't know about the Lego gun incident. I do know that the boy who got in trouble because of the poptart gun didn't get in trouble because people thought he had a real gun. [quote]"As much as the parents want this case to be about a 'gun,' it is, rather, a case about classroom disruption from a student who has had a long history of disruptive behavior," Nussbaum wrote in his opinion, which was dated June 26, the Washington Post reported. He asserted that the suspension came as a result of disciplinary problems the boy had, and not just because of what he did with the breakfast pastry. "[b]Had the student chewed his cereal bar into the shape of a cat and ran around the room, disrupting the classroom and making 'meow' cat sounds, the result would have been exactly the same[/b]," Nussbaum wrote, according to the Post.[/quote] http://www.cbsnews.com/news/examiner-recommends-school-board-uphold-pop-tart-suspension/ I just read about the Lego gun incident and agree, that reaction by the school was outrageous and I don't support it. [/quote] Yet these type of incidents continue without liberal outrage. [/quote]
