Criminal charges will not be filed against a student after allegedly saying a math symbol looked like a gun.
On Tuesday afternoon, Allen Parish Sheriff's Office deputies investigated an allegation of terrorist threats at Oberlin High School, according to the department's Facebook page. The investigation revealed that a student was completing a math problem and drew the sign for square root. Deputies say another student made a comment that the symbol looked like a gun and several other students made similar comments. According to investigators, the comment made by the student in question "could" sound like a threat when taken out of context.
Detectives also searched the students home and found no evidence that he possessed or had immediate access to any type of firearm. Investigators say there was no evidence that the student had any intent to commit harm to students or faculty.
"The student used extremely poor judgment in making the comment, but in light of the actual circumstances, there was clearly no evidence to support criminal charges," stated on the Allen Parish Sheriff's Office Facebook page.
The matter was turned over to the Allen Parish School Board for determination of disciplinary action.
Squeeze roots can be as irrational as the teachers these days.
Thanks for the much needed laugh. That was quite witty.
If this is a real story, yikes. And if they had found "evidence"? So what, but woe to him and his family if that had been the case.
It was a funny comment. Kids see humor where the real psychos see only malevolence [in their own mirrors].
You winz the Internet!
The radical symbol definitely looks like a gun, and there is no place for it in our schools. Banning the radical symbol would bring peace and harmony back to our schools and children.
Square, not squeeze — damn autocorrect.

I don’t know there was that cute girl at the airport who made the Texas Tech finger pistol hand sign and got hauled away for questioning...
No credit to me. It’s a phrase I heard a decade ago.
Maybe guns should now be call “female empowerment boom sticks”
And yet the school system and other authorities ignore the real threats! Unfreakinreal!

It won;t be long until we ourselves will have to take the gun to these liberal fascist f*cks.
One wonders just how insane they can possibly get. Insane enough to start shame killing people who say a math symbol looks like a gun? I’d say they are over half way there now.
Someone needs a serious tarring and feathering IMHO.
LOL.

Don’t make your Pop-Tart look like a gun.
The judge who issued such a warrant should be removed from the bench, and the law enforcement officer(s) who asked for the warrant should be fired.
Of course, if the kid and/or his parents consented to a warrantless search then they are not too bright.

Spot on.
“The student used extremely poor judgment in making the comment”
“The matter was turned over to the Allen Parish School Board for determination of disciplinary action.”
Insane doesn’t fit. Hysterical doesn’t describe it. Demented, stark raving mad comes close. I thought we had reached the limit of craziness when they bounced the kid who chewed a poptart into the imagined “shape” of a “gun”.
They’ve been putting kids in jail for years now, for “making a gun” with the fingers and going “bang bang.”
But they don’t do anything when a muzzy goes into a violent tirade and actually threatens humans. Nothing.
Insanity, until I find a better word.
They still teach roots in skrewl?
Welp.. Leftists did get a ridiculous Russian “dossier” into the FISA court.
You severely underestimate the problem. They are liberals.
