Several Martinsville High School students say teachers stopped their calls to 911 while a fellow student was choking, because cell phones aren't allowed on campus.

Witnesses tell police the victim was rushing to finish his lunch before leaving the cafeteria, because you can't bring food outside. That's when they say he started choking, went into cardiac arrest, and died at the hospital.

Good thing there are some reasonable, modest, common-sense, do-it-for-the-children regulations in place at this institution. People's lives depend on it!!

Well, the cell phones aren't allowed because the kids text message answers on tests. (And they just might record a Liberal teacher's rant as well!)

On another note, one of my daughter's classmate's mother is dying, so she illegally carries her cell phone. A call about the mom's condition in the middle of science class yesterday ALMOST got this girl suspended...until my daughter reminded her teacher that Zero Tolerance is Intolerant. (Yes, she got that from me, but I am a PROUD mom that she was able to say it at 13!)
