I used to take a shotgun and hunting cloths to school and then a couple of us and our Biology teacher would go bird hunting after classes.
My old Junior High had a shooting range located under the school pool. We used to have shooting classes after school and have competitions using 22LR.
I think the leftist school apparatchiks collective heads would explode if those things still happened today.
As an aside: school violence was nearly nonexistent back then.
What if this Eagle Scout had later died because he needed that knife which he had surrendered? What would the school board say then? Would they have expunged his record then?
Academics are nearly always the stupidest people I meet.

0 tolerance/0 IQ
“Zero tolerance” is a vile destruction of the educational process that has severely damaged millions of students who are crushed by it, and millions of teachers administrators that enforce it. It’s purpose is to kill morality and rational thought, and replace them with unaccountable decrees from a faceless wall of rules and totally indemnified, “untouchable” teachers and administrators who have gone mad with power.
The abdication of teaching responsiblity and denial of consideration of mitigating factors required by due process called “zero tolerance” is one of the greatest scourges ever inflicted upon a population. It is enforcement training of nothing less than the programming of mindless obedience to political correctness totalitarianism, and has transformed teachers into vicious, punishing hypocrites.
Talk to a public school teacher lately you haven’t seen in awhile? You’re in for a treat.Their arrogance has been so bloated by their wielding of this punative, sadistic, completely protected tyranny they actually strut, and refuse to respond to critical discussions even with an adult. Why? Because they don’t have to justify themselves anymore... and they’re drunk on the power.
I have always believed “zero tolerance” could be struck down as an acceptable school policy on a number of grounds, with a big enough federal legal effort. It contrasts wholly with every purpose of education - it’s defenses are mere sound clips, and the curriculum itself even violates it. For example, these are the people who are also teaching that the rule of law regarding immigration, for example, should be justifiably broken - and that is far from the only “zero tolerance” hypocrisy that could be used against them and their openly leftist political agenda.
The whole thing makes me sick like few other subjects. Public school teachers and administrators are wildly out of control - they are running true gulags in America, and in raping the hearts and minds of the students, they’ve lost their own, all while screaming that they have the moral high ground. They’re hideous, and besides the district, they themselves should be personally sued into the ground for their abuses.
We have zero tolerance for weapons here in the Chicago Public School system.
Oddly enough, students keep getting shot to death.
This decision says far more about the Lansingburgh Central School District Board of Education than it could ever say about Matthew Whalen.
Zero tolerance = Zero intelligence
It seems to me that there is no need for “administrators” or “school officials” with a “zero-tolerance” policy. A thin little policy manual administered by the janitorial staff should relieve all that staff overburden.
Yuri Besmenov warned us. Our nation is now utterly and completely “demoralized”! Next step: Destabilization!
Yet...Conservatives consistently fail to have a rational plan to RE-moralize the nation!
Hint: That RE-moralization plan better include shutting down every government K-12 school in the nation. That plan better include getting every child into a conservative private school!
Unless we raise up generations of citizens who can defend their faith and our nation's founding principles our nation is lost! We are facing a centuries long Dark Age. YES! It is that serious!

Click on the keyword “zerotolerance” and you’ll get hundreds, if not thousands of similar stories from all parts of the country.
To be a teacher or administrator in just about any public school, one must have education beyond a four-year college degree. With so much education, why are so many teachers and administrators so lacking in common sense?
INSANITY...
Zero tolerance is just an excuse for not thinking. Liberals cannot make moral judgments so every misdemeanor is a felony and every felony a misdemeanor.
