Quoting: Earth Daughter They made an example out of him so the rest of the kids will think guns are horrible. And if mommy and daddy own one, then it's a horrible, shameful, family secret. Next step, get the kids to rat out mom and dad. Yes they are!!!! |

It is perfectly normal for children to have a fascination with its perceived cultural ideals. Most children express this into artwork in some way from an early age. I find it both depressing and heartwarming when kids make doodles of guns, bombs and explosions upon receiving their first pack of crayons. This thread might glance off of this topic, but this ^^^ is what matters. I didn't read the story, but I'm sure its about turning that fascination with guns into a fascination with enforcing, obeying, and submitting to order and justice. |

Spirituality is the opposite of religion, religion is a substitute for spirituality. Spirituality is a direct connection to Creator The Most high. Anyone who inflicts pain on others will suffer themself from that pain. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 31625978 Panama 03/03/2013 05:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Day after day reading articles like this underscores a need for school board reform. Parents with commonsense need to take control. Quoting: R&y Also get the feds out of education. Education is a local issue that should be determined by the citizens and not by a bloated federal bureaucracy with no accountability. The Horace Mann teachers union is also responsible for the deplorable state of education in the U.S. My mother was a teacher so I got plenty of updates on asinine education policies from the 50's to the 80's. I was a member of various unions for about 30 years and in the past unions have done a lot of good for workers, but most of them have become as corrupt as our corporations and politicians. Yup, before the schools were federalized, this sort of thing never happened. Back when schools were at the mercy of their local communities for their funding, they went out their way to avoid upsetting the sane majority. Back then they could not get away with this crazy crap, because they knew the people would voice their displeasure by voting no for the school bond. |

It makes no sense unless they actually ARE being run by drooling idiots. No public school for our family - ever. Back to private schools or homeschooling as a last resort. The die is cast.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 35428193 United States 03/03/2013 06:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This mentality is just so retarded. Who came up with this nonsense??! Just when is it OK to expose the children to guns? I mean you have to teach them history. History and guns are pretty much tied together. Guess we cant teach them history. My kindergardener brang a note home from his teacher cause he was play acting and "exposing" other children somehow to the very idea of cowboy type of shooting. Give me a break. Transformers toys blast eachother...of course they are going to emulate. Somehow this type of behavior censorship seems to me to be just mindless ignorant fear, and the sheep just let it go on, with stupider and stupider and more rediculous examples that are way beyond reasoned thinking. Oh but it's OK that recruiters prowl the High Schools to sign up kids for the ultimate in gunplay. |
