[Video] 8 Year Old Schoolboy Reprimanded For Thinking a Cloud Looked Like a Gun During Assignment May 22 2014 by Dan Cannon Share This Post
So I think we’re officially to the point where our public schools are punishing children for their imagination.
According to KKTV,
Second grader Kody Smith was assigned to go outside, look at the clouds, and then use his imagination to draw what he saw.
“Draw a picture of what you see in the clouds from your imagination and that picture is a gun,” explained 8-year-old Kody.
Because it was a gun, the teacher at Talbott Elementary in Widefield called him into the office, and then filed a behavior report. His parents say that’s too much.
So this kid is punished because he didn’t see an elephant or a unicorn or whatever else the school *thought* he should see when he looked at some clouds? Really?
This is just the latest example of the zero tolerance hysteria which has swept our nation’s schools.
Check out our article, The Plan to Disarm America Within Two Generations is Happening RIGHT NOW for more details on how these school policies will be the downfall of the Second Amendment.
I was in a supermarket a few days ago. I saw a young boy with a toy gun running around and pretending to shoot a friend. All I could think of was that he’d be in serious trouble if he did that in a public school. He was just a kid being a kid, but in the public schools that’s not allowed. You have to conform. How sick and how sad!
Couldn’t the time spent worrying about idiocy like this be better spent teaching important things? Like the meaning of the Constitution,the Bill of Rights,& more specifically,the meaning of the Second Amendment.....where it is age-appropriate of course.
Public School is now most similar to North Korean Re-education Camps.
He should have said that cloud looks like an aborted child.
I agree
So, YOU’RE the one that agrees, eh?
