Title: Wooden Drill Guns....TOY GUNS a dangerous Weapon?!??!!!???
Post by: airwolfe1 on February 11, 2009, 04:30:44 AM
How F-ing stupid!! Our country has lost all sense of reason!! Suspending an Honor Student in her Senior year? This could destroy her future. What college would be interested in a student who has a past suspension. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!! I'm just as f-ing pissed off as you Michael!!!

Zero tolerance leave no other choice but to follow the letter of the law. Zero tolerance leaves no room for intelligent decision making.  ???

But it was not a gun..... It was not used in a threatening manor..... it was not perceived as being a real gun.... it should not fall under zero tolerance

Don't forget some others:

"r" ( as pointed out above);

"k" have you seen knife ads with the blades out;

"q" "g" 'a" "p" "b" "e"  all look like nooses;

"z" "s" look like whips;

"v" for victory puts one persons accomplishments above anothers;

"t" a cross and we must stay away from religion;

"n" the first letter of the "N" word.

Please be cautious in the use of c, f, h, i, j, m, n, o, u, w, x and y, because they are in the minority, and we don't want to hurt they're feelings.

an you fo inn o m  (thank you for listening to me)

I just got to here the show today ( Driving to work )



MB,  Well said mate   could not of said it better my self  exept I would of had trouble holding back the language ;)
if I ever get over to the USA  I NEED to buy you a Beer Mate

I hope the censorship police are not here  ;)

I don't blame you for being Pissed off

the way knob heads are in this modern Fagatised world we are in where a lot is scaird of there own shadow.
or are not willing to stand up for what is right incase they
1 offend  incert minority here
2 do not have the Balls to speak there mind
3 bunch of left wing tossers that want to complain about everything and think that there way is the best and only that way (FFS)
4 want to control every aspect of everyones life in the name of "it is best for you"
5 what ever i have missed out


it is the same if not worse over here

what really saddens me is the lack of bulls people have to stand up to people like this
or the likes of PeTA, Greenies (Democrats hehe ) or any other Oxygen thieving organisation   and the Media just runs with the BS that they spill out




one thing you are also 110% correct on mate is about sending letters / emails or going in and seeing them. 
we MUST be polite and curtis  however get our point, if we are to go on like I just did it just makes us look like those serio typical gun nuts.


( I will also send an email to the Administration if you have any email address)

Quote
To the Administration of Cherokee Trail High School

I am saddened to hear that Marie Morrow has been suspended

from my understanding she was suspended for having Military Drill Practice equipment in her car that was Parked off Campus grounds
and was suspended as they were deemed dangerous weapons.  I can not understand how Drill Practice Props are considered to be dangerous weapons.

this is appalling,  Miss Morrow is a pillar of the community and should be applaud for getting out there by being apart of the Douglas County Young Marines
you may not know that the Douglas County Young Marines is a group dedicated to teaching leadership and life skills.   something that will no doubt make her an exceptional student for your school  in a time when discipline in a lot of people is lacking.

the school should be proud to have a student in Miss Morrow,  she is a roll model for other students not going down the track of expelling this student, which will reunion her chance to finish school and then stop her from getting in to Merchant Marine Academy



I urge you to reverse your decision and re-instate  Miss Morrow back into the school

Regards
Phil 

or something like that

also if anyone wants to use that or edit it for there letters please feel free to  ;D  and let me know what you think

There seems to be a lack of discretion and common sense when it come to zero tolerance policies.

Let's get the name correct. 

It's not 'zero tolerance' it's 'zero intelligence'!

Zero tolerance policies are a good idea, 52% of the population is not capable of making a rational decision.
