Becky, you summed it up. School policy and its administrators has outweighed common sense in this matter. -ZL

IM so sick of black mofos putting the whole race issue in every damn thing.

Niggers can now be a black president, from another country even, niggers own TV shows, Radio shows, churches, etc. You get to run your own Events etc. One would think that would be enough.

This is why the N word is in effect cause of some of you ignorant mutha fers.

Yes, a White kid ACCIDENTALLY shot his kid sister. ACCIDENTALLY!

He didnt bring the gun to school. Kids are killing each other, blowing up sh*T, shooting up schools. its common sense.

Its a default charge.The judge is not going to leave it as a felony.The attorney is simply making a scare tactic for the kids in the schools.

SO will you niggers stop being negative idiots, Do your research and stop getting your info form the half asses news and blogs. YOU ARE DAMN IDIOTS!

This girl has been expelled, will be tried as an adult on felony charges…Meanwhile, there are terrorists out here bringing explosives on trains with the intentions of creating harm and we do nothing.

America, we are going to kill ourselves. If we continue to make all the “other” people in America, the bad guys, while ignoring white Americans, then we’re going to be a culture plagued with violence from white rage.

It’s really sad because I believe we will self destruct if we don’t stop using divisive politics and justice to divide the people in America. We’ve got to stop

I was an A student back in the day and I did stupid things like that all the time – at home and occasionally at school Did I know what would happen when I mixed HCl and Al, of course.

Did I know what would happen when I lit a match – of course! Did I know what I was doing when I designed, built, and used a circuit to charge/discharge capacitors at 300 V to make a coil gun – naturally! Dry ice pulse devices?

Improvised rocket fuel from potassium nitrate and sugar? Damn right I knew what I was doing and I enjoyed it. With and without supervision, I did all these things and didn’t give a damn what the rules were (or my teachers who helped me after class) – because I was in school to learn and I wasn’t going to let school get in the way of my education (apologies to Twain).

Many years later, I’m working in space mission design and still in school getting my PhD in physics.

It’s precisely dumb things like this that inspires students to get into STEM, even if they don’t know what they’re doing. If I saw my kids bringing together all sorts of household cleaners I’d make sure to teach them the science behind it and some basic safety and let them have a blast – literally.
