6th-Grader Terrorizes Students With Horrific Drawing

A sixth-grader from Deer Trail, Colorado has been suspended for drawing an inappropriate picture. The drawing did not include any gun, but showed a checkpoint backed up by a SWAT team carrying flower pots while an unarmed drone hovered above.

The suspended girl, whose name is kept secret at the request of her family, said she “just wanted to draw something about social justice, the environment, and the glory of government.”
“Although I sympathize with the girl’s family, we cannot let a child terrorize her schoolmates.”

An editorial in the British newspaper The Guardian virulently attacked the school’s decision. “We understand why schools would prohibit drawing images of guns,” wrote the editorialist, “but drawing representations of angelic things that serve only to protect people should be encouraged, not banned. Whom can you trust if you can’t trust the politicians and bureaucrats who rule over us?”

The NSA, which had probably been watching the school’s computers, issued a press release barely an hour after the incident. It quoted the reaction of its president, Gen. Keith Alexander: “It is discouraging that our government is sometimes viewed more as a rogue element than the national treasure it is.”
