This is so over the top I wonder if these two have ahistory of headbutting. Also, not defending the educrat’s thuggish behavior, Iknow gangs in the Yakima area have used rosaries as gang identifiers. Does anyone know if Latino bangers have started to do the same in the Spokane area?

This is ten miles from me; I have concluded that at some level the Rosary-necklace was intended as a gang symbol. However, the principal’s alleged threatening of actual physical violence (with the knife), if it occurred, seems to surpass the boy’s act in notoriety. I am a Catholic and pray the Rosary daily but would never think to hang it as a necklace.

>>>The principal said the original order would have made it impossible for him to do his job. <<<

I would think the fact that he is a moronic bully already makes it impossible for him to do his job.

I wonder what would happen if he threatened to cut off a muslim student’s head scarf?

I doubt if they have butted heads, robowombat. It is PC run amok in the NW. A rosary is certainly not jewelry. To some, it is a talisman of faith, love, hope--all good things. Does this school system, or the PC flakes who run it object to caps for jews, scarves/headcoverings for religions these things are a talisman/symbol for?

Establishment of a religion--I don't think so.

Now for those spacey systems that make the students dress the part and become, say, Muslims for a day to "understand" that religion, yeah!--that is Waaaaay beyond the pale.

Ki-Be is near Tri-Cities, not Spokane.
Plenty of gangs though.

This seems more an anti-religious beef than anti-gang.
Wrong crowds complaining.
(or usual suspects not)
