Link,

 

Girl suspended for bringing empty, read potentially dangerous, shotgun shells to school.

 

I don't know what to say so,

 

Must have been a liberal principal.

The principle obviously isn't a gun person if he thinks bullet casing can be as dangerous as a live bullet.  He may be... the only man in Iowa who thinks an empty shell is dangerous.

EXACTLY! An empty shell is no more dangerous than an unloaded gun! BOTH should be allowed in schools!

TORT REFORM: I am in favor of "settlement panels". Easy for the judge to look at a "best practice" settlement per offense. Who needs litigation when we can save time and money by cutting out the middle man through "comparative effectiveness"?

I figured there would be a post with your sentiment.  You can't just load a shell and start blasting away, however you can with a gun.  At what point during the day do you start thinking?  Right before you go to bed?

Common sense no longer exist in this country, just like when the 1st grader who brought hhis boy scout spork thing to school and was suspended.

Hold on Snow Leopard, imma let you finish, but Windows had one of the best operating systems of all time.

Don't try and decode my posts. I am being 100% honest! ALWAYS! An empty shell and an unloaded gun are both perfectly safe. Guns don't kill people, bullets do. An empty shell and an unloaded gun contain no bullets. Which gives them the same safety rating. I think loaded guns should be allowed in school anyway. Class clowns impede everyone's education. I don't think they'd be so quick to act up if they knew their classmates were packing heat!

Or how about just one that didn't know what he was doing?  Or should we start generalizing everything?

 

 

Principle bans hemp necklaces from school because he's afraid kids will get high = conservative?  It's happened before.

Um.. an empty shotgun shell is nothing more than a piece of brass and paper. Much less dangerous than a small rock or pointed pencil.

I actually had something similar happen to me when I was in  7th grade.  I'd been hunting with my father and grandfather over thanksgiving and left some 20-gauge and 0.22 casings in my jacket pocket.  The teacher saw me showing them to other people and confiscated them.. also called my parents.  As I recall my father laughed about it.

I suppose I can see where they are coming from on one level- since you are dealing with paraphernalia related to an activity where adult-level decision making is required.  I'm not sure I'd want my kids to take an empty Jim Beam bottle or box of Trojans to school for show and tell.

I've heard of kids being expelled for accidentally having a steak knife in their CAR, not even having it in school.

One time a kid's car broke down and he had to use his dad's pickup, who keeps a shotgun under his seat...somehow it got discovered and he got kicked out of school

common sense = 0%

case by case practical common sense = 0%

over reaction based on political correctness and media hype = 100%

result--- liberal thinking caused this.

how's that for generalizing?  that actually is 100% correct.

bring it.

I'm a liberal and I don't have a problem with empty shell casings in school.

 

Your generalization has failed.

 

You are unfairly projecting your backwards ideas onto another group.

Since liberal is the opposite of conservative, does that mean conservative thinking caused columbine?

 

See!  I can illogically deduce something also!

Lets use this argument that empty shells don't kill.

If we can bring in parts of firearms as long as they don't kill, we can also bring in empty guns. After all, you need both for it to fire.

Kid A brings in empty shells.

Kid B brings in the shotgun.

Enough said.

That's insane. If it was obvious she didn't have any intent on using them, then it makes absolutely no sense.

The rules in this country are merely being enforced for the sake of having rules; it's as if everybody has abandoned reasoning and intuition and left everything up to authority.

Does it make life easier for you when you label every single person you meet in either column A or column B? For a young person you got some pretty ass-backward thinking.

Actually, it's closed-mindedness and the overzealous use of zero-tolerance that cause this. Closed-mindedness and being overzealous isn't a liberal thing, nor is it a conservative thing. Both sides have these types of people, as proven by this and many other threads. It's just a "stupid people can't think outside of the limited little world they think they're the center of" thing.
