Ohio middle school student suspended for ‘liking’ Instagram photo of a fake gun

Liking a post on social media that indicated potential school violence.

Not sure which disturbs me more. SJWs equating the 'liking' of an airsoft picture to 'potential school violence', or how it is that said 'liking' comes to become public information.

These would be the same type of imbeciles, who would've used The Nuremberg Defense : "I was just following orders."

The administrators need to have their lives ruined. An example needs to be made of these fools. Zero tolerance, zero common sense policies like this probably foster more violence than they could ever hope to avoid.

Why the rest of the kids are not liking the same photo to prove a point is beyond me...

Pray this PC BS is addressed to some degree in next few years and begins to swing the other way. Problem is - this represents a public school system that has become populated by self-serving, liberal democrat robots who's only original idea involved putting butter on toast.


But it's probably not even REAL butter, but that crap they've been TOLD to eat.

The only thing we should have "zero tolerance" for is administrators that behave like that OH middle school.

400 feet is much more reasonable.


I would prefer the first one is dropped at 1000 feet, then you lower the helo so they can see what happened then take it to 400 feet for the remainder.

This also shows you how bad the media is. Questions not asked include:

How did the school discover this?
There was another person that "liked" the photo and whoever posted the photo in the first place. What happened to them?
When you look at the screenshot, several sites seemed to have blacked out a line leaving the word "ready." What is this about?

Recall I had a middle school student dumped into my SPED after school credit recovery class. When I asked what the reason was the answer went that during a weekend, off school grounds another student "thought" guy said he had a gun. Huh?

"the school has a “zero tolerance policy” for any inappropriate behavior, including “misbehavior” that occur off school property"

Inappropriate behavior - as defined by whom? The Board's behavior in suspending the student was inappropriate.

What happens off school property outside of school hours is none of their @!*& business.

I bet if some hackers got into that administrators google search history they could find some "inappropriate" material.

Insane.

The simple minded assholes who are responsible for the rule itself deserve a severe beating, in public, daily, for - I dunno - a month straight or something. Dumbfucks.
