KYLE, Texas -- When a Lehman High School student asked for some chewing gum, another person misheard and thought the student said the word "gun," causing a scare on campus.
School officials investigated the concern while students were held in their extended class periods.

Will this student garner a White Hut visit like clock-boy?
This happened in Texas?
This is what happens when you have idiots teaching morons.
Was this gum purchased from a licensed dealer? I typically conceal carry my gum so I don’t have to share with everyone.
They sure he didn’t say “Gub”?
When I was in school it WAS the GUM that was banned....
Student asks for gum, all hell breaks loose. Clock boy brings in prototype bomb, hailed as a hero worldwide.
When there are too many alerts, the folks stop taking the alerts seriously.
What would happen in an airport if you said “careful, that bag has my gum in it”?
Arrest for terrorist language.
We are screwed.
LOL, that’s the one! I have a gub!
Even if they did, that dance school would be the safest one in town.
Those that the (small-g) gods would destroy, they first drive mad.
Notice this isn’t something (large-g) is at all asking for. The people are doing just fine in asking for it themselves and He’s granting permission to the maddening spirits to accommodate.
Virgil Stockwell failed bank robber “Marge, come here, what does this say to you?” “This is a robbery, give me all the money I have a gub” lol lol I always wondered if Woody Allen came up with that gag by accident on a typewriter while he was writing the script because the letter N is next to the letter B on the keyboard
Yes. Get used to it.
I sure how the government comes out with a list of banned words so that we will not scare the pansies that don’t understand reality.
I wonder how many volumes it will be?
Extremely harsh lighting should be introduced into the schools so that students and faculty can be lighted from every angle at all times.
This will prevent them from being frightened by their own shadows!
P.S. My dad belonged to the Gun Club in High School.
No one was scared and no one got shot.
Schools will now criminalize the word “gum” because, like Pop-Tarts, it’s close enough...
I was on our High School Rifle Team (sponsored by the USMC) all 4 years of high school; we brought our weapons to school every day for practice (yes, live fire) on the school range.
No body ever got shot, no body ever freaked out, none of the students or staff ever wet their pants, or wound up in the terrorized fetal position as far as I know.
Course that was back in the 60’s, different world I guess.
We brought ours to school and left them in unlocked and windows rolled down vehicles parked in the school parking lot. All the principal or cops would say is, “Nice piece.” We also carried picket knives and had a can of Skoal in our back pockets.
Lawzy, Texas is lost. I’m ashamed. Too many uber libs from UT and Austin have migrated out to Kyle.
