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.

I was just pointing out that the problem of guns in schools is more of an inner city problem than a "foolish retarded right wing redneck" problem. I wasn't saying it's because of liberals, I was just pointing out that it's not necessarily because of conservatives. But if you feel better blaming a political party, who am I to stop you. Blame political parties, blame parents, blame the schools. In my opinion, if a kid is bringing a weapon to school, the kid is to blame. In the rare case of a young child who doesn't know any better, then I place the blame on the parents. But most of these cases are kids who are old enough to know that what they're doing is wrong.

I blame the parents.
Where were they?
What were they doing?
How did THIS get past them?
Were they just ignorant?
The Columbine idiots for example, how the HELL did the parents miss that these kids had a freaking arsenal?
Too busy cheering on war and praising Bush?
Too busy hugging trees and being war protestors?
Who the hell cares? They screwed up somewhere.

I don't think Columbine was an inner city problem.
guns + schools = a problem anywhere~

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.
