This type of zero tolerance is obnoxious, especially when the three black students who could have killed the younger white boy in the schoolbus beating got merely a couple of years probation.
We seem to have a chicken society here today. Atrocities with guns grab the screaming headlines and the silver screens. Defensive uses get the quiet treatment.
To be fair though... To gesture like you are going to kill doesn’t matter as to exactly how the killing would be carried out. Gesturing like a guillotine or a stabbing would be on a par. It ought to get looked into if the context is not immediately clear, and if appropriate reprimanded, reminding explicitly whoever did it that life isn’t cheap. But maybe it was just some kid reporting on what happened in a horror movie. Kids often do things like that without being malicious. Context matters so, so much.
The **point** of this anti-gun zero tolerance is to raise up a nation of Peter Pans ( especially white Peter Pans) who are utterly incapable of defending themselves, their families, the nation, their freedom, and **especially** our Constitution. And...A nation of citizens who will go to the polls and gut the Second Amendment. All it takes is one to two generations.
That is the goal. That is the point.
By the way, am I the only one noticing that young men between the ages of 15 and 30 are acting more and more “swishy”?
