"The boy was questioned by the principal and a sheriff's deputy, who also wanted to search the family home without a warrant, Henkelman said. "He started asking me questions about if I have firearms, and [the deputy said] he's going to have to search my house. Search my house? I just wanted to know what happened."

So glad my son is out of school, because he can’t stop talking about taking the AT~15 out to the range last week.
I’m sure the ACLU is trying to contact the family as we speak.
Right?
I recall that a friend of mine and I in sixth grade used to conduct interplanetary wars during lunch hour with pencils and rulers on manila paper. We each drew our own picture, but would spar verbally about who had the upper hand in the depicted battle. To be honest, he was more creative than I was, and I would follow his lead for the most part. Of course, the ruler guided bullets were flying in these depictions, which seemed very realistic to us. The teacher surveyed all this with equanimity. She was very popular with the girls because of her proclivity for leading the class in singing popular songs such as TAMMY, which I remember in particular. She would let on that these singing sessions were some sort of daring clandestine activity. Nevertheless, she did allow us our space battles.
What’s curious is that if you replace the words “guns/firearms” with “Jews” in this article, how it would perfectly read like German history 1943.
As a society, it’s our own fault that these absurd situations continue.
It used to be that we knew the schools were full of libs. But the cops were (generally) on "our side".
I'm not so sure any more.
Stop wondering. It can't. That fork in the road's long been taken.
I saw Maryland in the story and clicked away. We have reached a level of evil where a little boy may be bullied for merely saying a word. A word. Think about that and wonder at what has happened to the adults involved to turn them into monsters.
It’s only a question of WHAT the fight will BE.
As long as we have our Constitution, we can rebuild.
That’s right. We have the blue prints.
Yup. The deck is definitely awash.
Our side knows it and will survive. The other side won’t know what hit them and most will drown.
We were there on a stopover. Went through Annapolis. Spent a few days there. Were wondering about living there.
Place gave me the creeps.
It’s a great place for what it offers historically, pre auto streets, the Carroll museum and the Naval Academy.
It’s a very old seaport. Wonderful
Right in the center of town, on the most prime real estate- top twenty in the country perhaps, is a beautiful contemporary building maybe 4 stories high. Gilded lettering. The Maryland Dept of Education building.
No no no.
I did not want anyone with that kind of greed and sense of entitlement pretending they would be in charge of my kids.
It was so much power. Like a live snake in the living room.
We high tailed it outta there after some good shopping and crab cakes and a visit to the O’Club.
Now when I see a story like this, and I see it’s from Maryland, I just think about how powerful they think they are over their subjects and how their subjects allow it.
Ca Reepy.
But, also, a theory of child development which holds some weight, is that boys need weaponry, and the mastery of it, at a certain developmental stage.
These libs do not have any business running things if they do not want to consider what they are doing.
Boys, when deprived of their toy weapons, will find something else, a lot like water seeking its level.
For instance, any movie or story worth anything has the protagonist gaining mastery over weapons (and transportation, money, bad best friend/brother).
It’s more than tattoos.
It is a VERY bad idea to teach young boys weapons are bad. Such a detrimental path for the feminists to take us.
Men, wake up and speak out. These little guys cannot easily overcome this psychological abuse. Besides, who’s going to defend the country ten years form now? These guys? The govt takes their weapons away when they want to learn how to use them and then the same govt’s going to teach them when they get drafted to boot camp how to shoot in 6 weeks?
No.
“Well, shoot granny. Uncle Jed and Ellie Mae are out rustling up some possum fer dinner and he’s gonna be recall pleased if I take the #7 buckshot out of it so yuhz dontz crack a tooth “
You are right. There will have to be a fight. The other side has been pushing and pushing. It will have to come to blows, or we are all slaves.
I am inclined to agree with fhayek. This one is headed for violence with somebody else’s hand on the throttle. We had this conversation a very long time ago, didn’t we, my FRiend?
Where did Barney Fife get the idea he could search the home?
Why complete any questionair? it can be used against you .???
I spent a few months in Maryland on a contract job before my present job. Spiritually bothersome stuff there... yeah. But I did join spiritual forces briefly with a Baptist church in Hagerstown. At once it appeared to be unusual since it was about 1/3 black people, with a white preacher who preached a conservative Protestant gospel. Normally that kind of a situation in liberal-land is about as stable as cats and dogs. They had Good Stuff going on at that church. Then the Lord called me to the Nashville area where there is even Better Stuff going on. The Lord is powerful here.
Don't you know that all the wars in written history of this civilization were fought with pillows?
