The conservatives who run America's alleged public schools must be the stupidest fucks alive.
Last month I told you about the suspension of a 7-year-old in New Jersey for drawing a picture of a water pistol. You'd think that embarrassment would've learnt schools a lesson not to issue such idiotic punishments over such matters. But no. The exact same thing is happening again already!
Now a first-grade student in Eagle Point, Oregon, has been suspended over almost exactly the same thing - this time a drawing of a stick figure brandishing a gun. The drawing was based on a scene from 'The Simpsons' TV series. The school somehow construed this drawing as a threat against 2 specific schoolmates.
I construe the school as a threat against sanity. If I had kids in that school, and if they were suspended over something like this, I would also construe the school as a target of a lawsuit.
They're suspending first-graders now over a drawing of a gun??? Considering I had to wait until 6th grade to get suspended over anything, that must be some gun!
