KYLE, Texas -- When a Lehman High School student asked for some chewing gum, another person misheard and thought the student said the word "gun," causing a scare on campus.

Other reports on the gum alarm include:

"Panic strikes school after student says ‘gum’"

"‘Gum’ mixup at Texas high school causes gun scare"

None report on whether the requested gum was a semi-automatic gum or assault gum.

Hopefully they suspended the gumman anyway. You shouldn’t even say words that sound like... you know.

obviously more gum control is needed, not to mention a ban on concealed carry of gum.

You just can’t shout “gum” in a crowded movie theater, either.

This country is becoming so pu$$ified. Today a woman was whining about Magpull taking over the lease in a building that housed a dance school and that they would be “selling automatic weapons so close to a school”. Sheesh, people are wearing me out.

Point for those that do not know Magpull does not sell guns automatic or any kind. The sell magazines, part and accessories.

What a bunch of idiots!

What are we teaching these kids? Cowardice, no common sense, and to snitch on each other? They are punished anymore if they think for themselves.

The USA is evaporating before our eyes.

When you have an entire generation that starts their sentences with the word, "so" .... and can't read nor write in script, and does everything, accomodated by the "school" electronically on a "device" .... can we actually expect children to understand the English language ?

Listen to high schoolers talk amongst themselves .... it is all slurred.

Let’s hope nobody at the school decides to rifle through the files.

Shouldn’t say words that sound like gun? What will they do in dental school?

Let’s hope nobody gets “discharged” or “fired” over this.

“What are we teaching...Cowardice, no common sense, and to snitch on each other? They are punished anymore if they think for themselves.”

That about sums it up. You need to pacify the people before you can rule with impunity,

Along the lines of kids being expelled for pointing their fingers, do kids also get expelled if they pretend to chew gum now?

LMAO

Our schools have turned into a national absurdity.

I still say, close down our schools, reorganize. Start the fall 2016 schedule with about 10% of the current teachers, and about 30% of the current curiculum.

Start teaching our kids the basics again.

Entities gone from school campuses:

The UN Agenda
Unions
Homosexual trawling
Global warming propaganda
The Anti US Leftist agenda
Islamic dogma
The idea teachers and schools own the children

Entities returning:

The Excellence of the United States
Emphasis on core education
The evils of Communism / Socialism
The importance of Capitalism vs the above
The Judeo Christian moral code
Wholesome family values
The Family unit and it’s sanctity over outsiders / most importantly teachers and the education machine

But Magpull sells gun things.

That's close enough. It's like the lady down the street that has a big sign in her yard protesting coal trains. "They cause cancer." I suppose, in her bleary little brain, she ties together black lung disease, coal and bad things.

2+2= Well, something.

Why, yes, she has a Coexist bumper sticker. How did you know?
