Why only water? Why not ban the whole school kitchen (If there is one avaliable to the students)...you can burn your hands on the owen

Another thing, why doesn't they ban the playgrounds on schools? I just saw a show in tv the other day, where they mentioned how many kids gets injuried per year, just for playing on the playgrounds by the school


Back to topic...

Normally I hate such things as bullets, but just for wearing ONE bullet as a neclase, I can't see no reason to give a student a week hollyd...I meen to suspend a student for a week

There's an easy way to solve this if you are Jewish (you weren't clear on what faith you are)...simply say that the bullet is from the aforementioned war in Israel and say it's a symbol of Jewish struggle. Then hint that if he doesn't let you wear it, you'll see to it that he is labeled a "Racist anti-semite". It'll work like a charm...

Those who voted yes are probably either a) doing it to inspire the kind of posts that question their motives, b) doing it out of spite, c) headteachers in similar schools

Im back in school! =)

I went to see the principal today with my parents. I also had the teacher who I was helping, and my physics/mechanics teacher(I had him for a mechanics class this year, and for physics this year) come with me.

Heres how the conversation went(im paraphrasing):

Parents: WTF?

Principal: Your son brought a deadly weapon to school.

Parents: No he didnt, its not a functional bullet.

Teachers: WTF!? Ves(Im not posting my RL name)is a great student and hasent done anything before!

Principal: We have our policies......

Parents/teachers together: Its not even a working bullet, look at it notice the big hole on the side, the lack of a copper coating(or whatever its called that is on a bullet which gets taken off when fired), it couldnt be fired in a real gun.

Principal: (Who at this point realized mabey this wasent a good idea) What do you mean its not a weapon?

Crowd: Its not a functional bullet.

Principal: *gets Deer in head lights facial expression*Oh then thats okay.....if Ves had explained that to me in the first place this wouldnt be a problem .

Myself: I told you that already.

He went on about how this isnt a violation itself but borders on it.....he said he'd make an exception for my case, put me back in school(damn heh), and take it off my record. He mentioned that in the student handbook every student gets every year, that in it next year in the section on weapons they would mention that you cant bring in non functional weapons either.........

The American public school system is a fascist entity, I hope sue them.

EDIT: I got suspended for three days in 6th Grade because I made my fingers into a gun and pretend to shoot at my locker. And that was in 1992.

you should have gone on the news. we all would have supported you and made it into a huge political issue, used it for our "stepping stool" and then I could have had the world at my fingertips, muahahaha!!

umm... but it would have been funny to see it on tv, kid suspended for wearing necklace with piece of metal that principal couldn't identify. principal: "I thought he was a terrorist"

You got suspended for that??? What would happen if you had made your fingers into a machine gun instead? Would that be a week suspension...or a year

They should have given you a warning before they expelled you, that is for certain.

But yeah- the whole zero tolerance policy is too much.

Looking forward to seeing you on the news!

Lawsuits this lawsuits that. Sue him sue her. Sue everyone.

Kid shouldnt have been suspended, but to say he should take legal action is a joke. One of the biggest things wrong with this country, people think suing is the solution to everything.

Yes, I'm sure most of us feel that there are too many lawsuits, and the setiment in this thread might explain why.

I saw a lawsuit in the paper the other day from a pitcher in little league that was sueing Louisville Slugger ( a maker of baseball bats, for you non-americans,) For making an improved bat. The pitcher claimed (his parents and lawyers really) that the improved bat put the pitcher at risk becase a batted ball would get back to the pitchers mound faster. EXCUSE ME. The kid doesn't get his glove up fast enough and the remedy is to sue the bat maker?

Something has to be done.
I hope the judge penalized the plantifs for wasting his time.
