Howabout instead of thanking a liberal, thank the foolish retarded parents of the kids running around with guns in schools? You know, the red neck right wing idiots who let the tv teach their kids and didn't kick them out the door and make them LIVE.

Liberals have nothing to do with this.
Parents have everything to do with it.

I've never had the opportunity to use the word ludicrous, but that is the only way to describe the actions of the school administrators for allowing something like this to happen.

I bet you that most of the idiot parents are libs. Don't think conservative parents would let their children look like those Columbine kids . They would have had their asses whipped.

Then there was the story today of a student that tried to rob HIS OWN teacher with a knife. He wanted money to buy the new "Grand Theft Auto" video game. Now that's definitely a parental issue.

I think a 5 day suspension is way too much considering the age, but the reaction of some of you is quite silly.

For a school to have a zero tolerance policy towards firearms, something I'm sure you'd all agree they should have, you can't make a provision just because the round was spent.

Next thing you'll be arguing that a backpack full of spent rounds or a bag of gun parts should be ok in school, because on their own they aren't a threat!

Spence, I agree to part of what you say here. I feel there should be a zero tolerance policy in schools, but only for bullets. Guns are fairly harmless without bullets, unless you pistol whip someone with it. But, by the same token, a stapler can do some serious damage if you whack someone hard enough with it.

And likwid, get a grip. Not all bad parents are redneck right wingers. I work in a bad neighborhood and see bad parenting almost every day. No rednecks here, though. In fact, I see mostly Obama signs in the windows. And the guns in school problems are probably worse in the inner city neighborhoods, which traditionally are not real conservative.

I certainly wouldn't call a typical terribly off inner city family liberal either.

Ok, so now you have to let the teachers stop the fourth graders and check their guns for ammo?

That's what I mean by silly. There's no wiggle room when there's a zero tolerance policy. Why can't you bring an unloaded gun on an airplane? Think about it...

Apparently everything is about politics to you.
I'm not even going to waste my time on this statement.

Funny how most southern redneck retards are conservatives huh?
