Someone is going to have a few bucks for college or bb guns.

That is absolutely ridiculous....

"School administrators agreed to lift the suspension after speaking with Zachary’s parents."

I bet that was a fun conversation.

Since the kid simply expressed his thoughts without actually saying or doing anything, wouldn't this be considered "thought police"? The level of infringement here off the charts imo, and the actions of the administrations should be immediate termination. Proper action, if they were sincerely concerned, would be to pull him aside and talk to him about what part he liked whether it was just the gun or the fact the caption read "ready" since that is a little open for some interpretation.

Oh, I'm sure it was. And maybe the suggestion of a lawsuit was discussed. Stupidity apparently doesn't take any days off. LOL.

This is what liberalism does to America. Normalcy is villified while the actions of the mentally ill are celebrated.

if it were my kid, I'd transfer him to another school. What a ****ing joke.

I just saw it was an airsoft gun which changes what I said before. That is absolutely moronic and should be a violation of his rights.

The kid needs to get with his classmates and have all of them "like" the NRA,S&W, Colt, Winchester......

Sigh. I'll refrain from a pussification of America rant. What a joke.

What the **** is wrong with this country anymore? How can this even lead to a suspension? Has nothing to do with the school. I want to know who the pussy was he even reported this.

 

[BrunotheBoxer]

I'd be buying that kid NRA tshirts to wear to school every day.

 

[R.D.P.]

How did the school become aware of the fact that he had liked that photo in the first place? Sort of an important fact that's not covered. Are they actively monitoring the social accounts of all their students at all times?

I would have to work very hard not to lose it during that conversation.

I think I would try and get them to admit fault, then I would sue them. Only way these **** will learn to stop doing this crap.

Where is the ACLU when you need them?

Hahahahahaha...

 

[PaxtonShelby]

Remember all the idiots who you went to high school with? Most of them have jobs now...and they are still idiots.

You just have to love the times we are living in........

The first call I would have made would have been (completely serious) to my Jewish lawyer. He's proven his likeness of money to me a few times to which I am thankful.

cases like this are really scary, you have to wonder what line won't be crossed by those with power. Every day when I go into work I remember that just because I can do something it does not mean I should. When you loose commonsense and perspective its time to do something else. Hope the family gets some money from the school district and the people in charge have a long talking to.
