I'm as pro second amendment as anybody, but I sure as hell wouldn't want my son's teacher taking him out of state to buy ammo. I'll buy his damn ammo!
I'll wait till I hear the particulars before I start choosing sides.

Of course, it's OK for teachers to drive students across state lines to kill thier babies.
If it wasn't for Mass. being on our Northern border, Konnecticut would seem REALLY liberal!

The report did not mention in how the LAW got involved in this issue. Uh maybe their parents told the law.
I know the whacked out gun nuts(i.e I have a right to own a nuclear weapon) will be howling, but that teacher was stupid and I am glad he was arrested.

Massachusetts Teacher Arrested for driving three teenage students to another state to buy bullets.The leftists shouldn't get too upset yet.
They could have been buying them for a partial-birth abortion.
Then it would be alright again.

Teacher's Aide Arrested On Firearms Charges
Ammunition Allegedly Later Used In Drive-By Shooting WORCESTER, Mass. -- A teacher's aide in Worcester's public schools has been arrested on federal firearms charges for allegedly driving to New Hampshire with three students to buy ammunition that was later used in a drive-by shooting.
Thomas Currier, 53, was arrested Thursday on a charge of being a felon in possession of ammunition. Currier pleaded guilty to armed robbery in the mid-1970s and served almost two years in a New Hampshire prison.
Currier, a teacher's aide at an alternative public school in Worcester, drove three of his juvenile students to New Hampshire on about Jan. 10 to purchase ammunition which was subsequently used in a shooting in Worcester on Feb. 2, federal authorities said.
"It is unconscionable that someone who is responsible for teaching and mentoring young students would transport them across state lines to purchase ammunition," U.S. Attorney Michael Sullivan said.
Currier will remain in federal custody until a detention hearing scheduled for Monday.
If convicted, Currier faces a maximum of 10 years in prison.

Re #e
They say they mellowed out these days. But Massachusetts is still the land of puritan zealots, who call themselves liberals these days. One can change the flavor of dogma. But it is the fanatic imposition of such dogma which gives them the pleasure.

Beautiful! The teacher's aide was a gang banger tutoring his charges in the fine arts of thuggery.
This is not a hill that pro-2nd amendment folks want to die on.

Why does that not surprise me? Someday, when we are all issued little 8x10 cells to live in, then, then you will finally be happy and at rest.

I shouldn't let this suprise me after learning that Sean on "Survivor" is a teacher.

What if it was as simple as crossing a bridge? Or going a few blocks? State borders are so arbitrary, most are just lines on a map.

But Massachusetts has no problem with teachers driving students across state lines for an abortion?
To: areafiftyone
My how the story has changed!
1) He's not a teacher, but a teacher's aide.
2) He's a felon
3) the ammo was used in a felony
