I cannot resist. If they outlaw horses,
only outlaws will have horses.

Apparently the right answer was things like Rob a Bank or hijack a snack truck or have sex in school. It is high time to abolish government schools

If the horse had just been GAY.... I dunno, he looks like a fairly happy horse in the picture.
Or is that not what you meant. :-)

...the 1100-pound horse, named Pierre, would never hurt a fly. The horse in this story is obviously a gelding and therefor the school is discriminating against differently sexed equines. In addition, the fact that this young lad by using alternative transportation was lowering his carbon footprint.

My dad rode a horse to school every day after he milked the cows and delivered the milk. But that was west Texas in the 40’s.

Government schools are a fascist gulag. The real question is why so-called conservatives incarcerate their children so that they can be indoctrinated by the lunatic left and rendered the academic equivalent of hewers of wood and drawers of water (yes, even in those really speciaql suburban dists. Actually, those district probably do the most harm)

This is another prime example of how difficult it is to get rational decisions from dumb ass school administrators. Unfortunately the schools of education at our universities are the garbage dumps of the universities. Most have the lowest ACT scores of all the schools in same universities. They just do not attract the highest cards in the deck.

“My daughter got suspended a few weeks ago for giving the wrong answer on a hypothetical psych question about “what would you do if you could get away with it and there would be no consequences?”
The school was just plain stupid. There are no “wrong” answers to such questions on any psychological test that I am aware of. The whole point of such questions on such tests is to elicit uninhibited responses. To punish a respondant for their honest answer invalidates the whole exercize.

Agreed. The subtext is “Everything is prohibited, unless we have given permission.” Many conservatives have deep recesses of their minds that the left has colonized.

I watched the video and am surprised he wasn’t expelled - he had a sword strapped to his side.
When they said he got suspended figured that was the reason, not because he rode a horse.
