Now, refresh my memory... Exactly how many HUNTING GUNS have been confiscated in our schools recently?
Other than the "air" pistols and paintball guns, I can't recall Cabela's ever offering 9mm's, Saturday Nite specials, Magnums, Uzis or and machine guns.
I think that the "zero tolerance" rule is referring to the teachers level of common sense (or IQ's). Did they speak WITH the student and find out about the magazine? Did they bother to inquire where he got the book from (so they can charge that person or establishment for child endangerment or other crap like that)? I do agree that there is a conflicting approach that officials have in regards to the violence that children are allowed to be exposed to.
Here's an interesting thought....
Our children are exposed to sex, swearing and violence at such early ages, and then the same society that authorized this exposure has the audacity to turn around and start restricting access to these same experiences. If the children were not allowed exposure to most of the crap on tv these days, they would never know what they had been missing. Guns in school would be a rarity, not commonplace.
Thanks for the rant.
