Public Education has become merely a massive jobs program and political support network. Otherwise, its a form of child abuse.

Whats-a-matta wid you, he’s Italian!

[familyop]

Well, there’s some public corruption. Maybe the A.G. should have a look.

[PlateOfShrimp]

And just like that...

The Onion, Monty Python, The Babylon Bee, and the Zucker brothers became irrelevant.

According to Trooper Logan Brouse. . .

. . .who has an I.Q. lower than a 6-year old. . .

What does it say about the “victim”, that he or she can be victimized by a 6-year-old?

[P-Marlowe]

This is a joke right?

What, did he point his finger like a “hand gun”?

Bang.

[P-Marlowe]

Is there a statute of limitations on "violent hand gestures". We used to run around the school playground when I was a kid pretending to shoot each other with "hand" guns.

Bang!

[VanShuyten]

Could be snowflakes reacting to a pop tart chewed to resemble a pistol, or the 6 year old could be a real Lord of the Flies type named Damien.

I don’t blame the cop for being scared. The kid was more than likely smarter than him.

[Gene Eric]

Another examples of the micro-socialism plague spreading across the Country — ignoring the clear-n-present threats while ‘probing’ 6 YOs for reported acts of terroristic hand gestures.

Bust every public union — they’ve gone insane.

A 6 year old can not commit a crime, period.

BTW....back in my Cowboys and Indians days, I killed countless Indians, maybe thousands. Should I be worried?

I'm guilty too. What will they charge us with? Virtual genocide?

[LegendHasIt]

Lunatic cops.

Now they will probably put him on massive doses of Ritalin, groom him for about ten years and then send him out to commit real terrorist acts.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

A 6 year old can not commit a crime, period.

Nope. At that age they are considered acts of God or acts of nature depending on the state.

Technically they can not even be charged with acts of murder.

#15. Only if you believe in ghosts!

Hey, there is probably a study that shows every mass shooter had a history as a six year old making violent hand gestures. After the law enforcement failures in Florida, Penn State police are not going to be accused of missing the warning signs.
