I'm not much for weapons, and I do work at a "Peace Academy", but I really got steamed when my school adopted a "no Superheroes" rule, and I can't even wear any of my Superhero shirts or my Spider-Man shoes to work anymore. They can't even dress like Superheroes for Halloween! Now that's just the limit!!

At some point in history, we gave up rational thought for zero tolerance policies in a lot of areas of life, not just schools. This is another reason why zero tolerance doesn't work.Expectation is the death of discovery.Comment

Well, when the kids come in Superhero costumes, not too much is said, (although they send notices home to discourage it). But the TEACHERS have to set the example and not wear superheroes.Well, Evel Knievel still has a cape, and I used that costume again last year...HAHA! I told my boss that if they adopt a no Star Trek rule, I QUIT!

Oh it gets better... the talk now is to have every student fingerprinted. No really. I'm telling you friends this country is taking some seriously wrong turns.Comment

Not really "crazy" IMHO. If there was an actual object acrtually involved, then we must consider there are many adult crimes
that action could be analgous to. A suspension to enforce a "no weapons" type rule seems harsh but appropriate in a lot of these cases."No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris MannixComment

On one hand, its breaking down all our personal rights as law-abiding citizens... on the other hand it'll become so easy, normal and commonplace that one will eventually forget there was a time when fingerprinting was an arduous process that took place during late-night hours in junky police stations with gobs of ink everywhere."No. No no no no no no.

Just yesterday a lady pointed out another aspect I hadn't thought about when it comes to all of these evacuations and lock downs... She has a handicapped some that use special crutches to get around so needless to say the mass exodus of students is less than safe for this kid.
Seriously, what do we do?Comment
