now he’s getting suspended??

i had heard he was disciplined ... but hadn’t heard suspension was on the table.

kids, just remember... if anyone pulls a knife or gun on a teacher ... DO NOT INTERFERE... you wouldn’t want to be accused of acting ‘heroically’

OUR BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY HAS GONE TO HELL.
Yes, I am just as much to blame as the next guy. I wasn't paying attention.
We know its over when crap like this is the norm. . . .

“I asked: ‘In the time it would have taken him to go get a teacher, could that kid’s throat have been slit?’ She said yes, but that’s beside the point. That we ‘don’t condone heroics in this school.’

Some people are too stupid to breathe.

Must have been a school outside the United States, because it contradicts the heritage of this great country.

Place the kid in another school.

And then publicly SLAM the idiots at his current school.

I'm sure the hero will end up in some “Sensitivity Training” class being taught by a specialist making 100K a year.

I think she meant to say, “we don’t condone academics in this school...”

I don’t know how it works in Canada, or much anywhere else for that matter, but in California, schools are paid per day for attendance. Parents could easily get the message across very quickly by simply standing in front of the school with their children and state that they’re not entering until the suspension is removed from the student’s record and school officials apologize for the incident.

Even if it’s just thirty parents, that is a significant hit to the school’s bottom line, and even the implied threat of this happening more than one day would move school administrators to change their ways.

Briar’s local tv news and newspaper should do stories about his heroic deed and then slap down the school. A reporter needs to not only interview the principal but the president of the school board as well. Parents forget or are too lazy to remind the school and the school board who elects them and writes their paychecks. Briar should tell the tv news that when he turns 18, he plans on running for school board to make sure bs like this stops.

As bad as this is, it’s a common attitude these days. Don’t interfere, don’t intervene, don’t try to stop anything yourself. You are not authorized to act in any way. Only the authorities are authorized to act. It is better to stand and watch a murder while dialing 911. Do not think. Do not act.

The commie Democrats are transparent. This is the liberal viewpoint writ large.

They will tolerate criminal perps while crushing people who defend themselves and others. They are not even subtle about it. Perps and other misunderstood yutes get a free pass. But don’t you dare defend someone against a perp or you will pay the price.

I am on my knees thanking the Lord I was born in the 1950s and not later when I would be subject to this communist idiocy.
