Default How screwed up is New Jersey?

7 year old receives suspension for violating zero tolerance for guns in school rules by drawing a stick figure shooting a water pistol...

Unbelievable.

vc1111 supports letting the schools teach your children, I wonder what his response is to this kind of thing ?

Probably because his water pistol was not being used to water the flowers. It is the garden state, after all.[X(]

haha... I can recall a social studies class in which a part of one assignment involved drawing pictures of tanks and fighter jets. I wonder how long these New Jersey nitwits would suspend me for that...

I find it incredible that this seven year old drew the stick figure, gave it to another kid, and the other kid's parents then complained to the school. I've got a whole bunch of interesting adjectives in mind, but, I've been soundly chastised in the past for using one of the milder ones...

The only thing I ever drew that got me in trouble was an airplane. The nose art, which was a faithful reproduction, was not well-received.

I can understand a zero tolerance rule concerning the possession by a seven year old of an actual firearm at school. That makes perfectly good sense. But, this incident, it seems to me, violates the kid's 1st Amendment rights, since artistic expression is a form of free speech. I guess this may be an attempt to indoctrinate kids to hate guns, so that when "they" attempt to rid the Constitution of the 2nd Amendment, no one will care...

You are probably right. Start brainwashing them to think guns are bad at an early age. There is a 30% chance they will grow up to become a registered voter some day.

How about the kids getting suspended for haveing tylenol at school. A few here in Texas have been booted because of the zero tolerance drug rule.

Fine by me... But, I think the particular complaint here is with a local decision, not with a DOE decision.
