The middle finger is protected by the First Amendment. Had that been the case the ACLU would be on it like a duck on a junebug!buffalo_speedway_tx wrote:seniorshooteress, I agree where is the common sense? This zero tolerance stuff needs to be eliminated and replaced with rules that don't make "bad kids" out of "kids just being kids".
You have to wonder if the kid would have used the middle finger they would have considered it threatening the teacher with a "dagger"...........or "something". In fact it reminds me that I use to have a nun in Catholic grade school who used her middle finger to point to things on the black board.

Re: Student suspended after finger gun incident
I used to shoot rubber bands off my finger and my hand was in the deadly finger gun position. I never knew I was a terrorist!

Re: Student suspended after finger gun incident
I was going to make a joke about sending out neighborhood patrols to seek and snuff out young children playing C&R or C&I to make sure none were using the deadly finger into gun threats. I guess they're already doing that. I am now assured that the world has gone completely crazy.Ol Zeke wrote:I had to go and dig it out, but I saw this similar case of a Kindergartner in Grand Rapids Mich. last month.

I guess if this kind of insanity is reaching Texas, it might be time to look at closing the Northern Border.
The girl should have just produced a baton and said she's heading for a polling place after school!
