2 days of detention for making a bag of dirt???

Unbelievable.

[rockrr]

I guess we should take comfort in the fact that the school "officials" couldn't recognize the difference between a bag of dirt and a bag of pot ;'}

Paging James Taranto!

Is he a Freeper? Anyone got his handle?

[k2blader]

What is wrong with these people???????

[EdReform]

You won't believe this one!

Just damn!

"They said it would be on her school record as far as disciplinary that she made a look alike drug but I don't feel like that's right. Because she didn't do anything wrong."

Oh the horror stories I could tell this mother. She needs to fight this. Don't let it remain on the child's record. It can come back to bite you.

[fella]

So, now the educrats have "progressed" to this.

[SandRat]

These Teachers ar too stupid to tell the difference between Dirt and Drugs? Why are they allowed to teach?

[Theresawithanh]

I don't know that a 6 year old would even know what marijuana even looks like. Of course, I could be wrong, 'cuz kids sure know a lot more about things than I did at that age.

What a stupid situation. If I was that mom, I'd have fought the suspension.

When dirtbags are outlawed, only outlaws will have dirtbags.

Could President Bush just issue an 'Executive Order' to stop these cretins from ruining the children that must be in their care for six hours a day?

These 'save-the-children/world-do-gooders-teacher-Lib-fascists'; who imagine they are actually demonstrating intelligent adult behavior as 'teachers'/mentors. . . are instead, determinedly stealing childhood at every opportunity and making 'common sense' a modern relic.

Stop the madness - stop Liberalism and all it's celebration (if only of stupidity) before it is too late.

I've never used drugs in my life, and I wouldn't know a bag of grass from a bag of, well ... grass. The sensibilities of these teachers have obviously been formed by different experiences.

[thesharkboy]

I'm glad she didn't put rock salt in a bag. The penalties for "crack look-a-likes" have to be much more severe. Unggggh.

[SelmaLee]

This - coming from my own childhood school district...

I wanted to post what I think about this, but I am just too disgusted.

[TankerKC]

Who wrote this?

[mhking]

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[FixitGuy]

Teachers were just pissed it wasn't pot, after having tried to smoke it!

[Willie Green]

Michaela put the mixture into the bag, she tied the top with a purple ponytail holder and gave it to her friend saying,"here's a bag of dirt."

Well... at least the teachers didn't make Michaela's friend write a thank-you note.

[unixfox]

Sounds like the teacher is a dirt bag. She needs to be expelled. What a loony tune.

superintendent Stephen Borgsmiller

BWAAAAHAAAA!!! With a name like "Borgsmiller" the poor guy was doomed to be a superintendent.
