Someone please alert Dianne Feinstein so she can add ‘photos of assault weapons’ to her legislation ban, because apparently we’re worried about those as well:

Just ridiculous. Now photos of guns are threatening or offensive? Wow, and this is in Arizona too.

The new "Norm". If It Looks Like a Gun, Then It is a Gun; No Exception! Oh, the Insanity of it all!

STOP THIS INSANITY! I think we should put armed guards on every school bus and in every school! One way door into the school and bullet proof glass on windows. I don't care if the kids have to walk thru a metal detector. Whatever it takes, but taking out some kid with a dumb picture of a gun...??? REALLY??? And a child was also suspended for making a gun out of lego's. Let's take out this kid with the pic on his laptop while Chicago continues to unload lead like confetti. The smart people are not at the top in this country.

They're attempting and probably succeeding to some degree to indoctrinate a whole generation against firearms. Pretty soon they'll airbrush all the muskets from the painting of Washington crossing the Delaware.

can the family of the said student sue the school administration for violation of one’s right to freedom of expression? if so then the parents should be cajoled and supported into suing the school so as to teach a lesson to these liberal/progressive thought police infesting the academia that conservatives will not take it anymore lying down but there will be a price to pay for any more of such infringement.

No pics of guns but it's okay to dispense birth control and morning after pills without the parents knowledge or consent! I'm glad my son is out of school.

I bought my son one of those popping cork guns at Knotts Berry Farm last night. Instead of enjoying the funny popping noise and how much fun he was having all I could think about was the cavalcade of ridiculous suspension stories we keep reading about. Sign me up for the Revolution, I'm so sick of this cr@p.

The school system thinks that their interpretation of the First Amendment is the correct one in the little self-righteous Marxist/Positive Law bubble that they slime around in.

Au contaire mon ami.

We shouldn't have to challenge these miscreants in court all the time. We should just fire them and start over again. Oh wait....teachers unions.....

Sieg Heil b_tches.

Yeah, but it's just hunky dory to allow these same students to go to violent Hollywood hypocrite-made films all day long. These people are idiots.

This has become a very sensitive subject and although many, or should I say most, of the school incidents, like a child pointing their finger like a gun, are stupid, and should be ignored, kids using a school computer should be told not to do this. This is also about common sense. I don't agree it was a suspension worthy incident. I know we can't trust most teachers to explain this to students so parents should. If a child wants pictures of guns at home on his computer fine. Just because there was over reaction to even the most innocent actions by children at school doesn't mean we should cause un-necessary worry which something like this could. I've heard over an over if only they'd acted on an early warning sign something bad may not have happened. I don't think that was the case here but it does seem provocative when you consider the strain many schools are under to avoid anything that could lead to violence. Let's face it their damned if they do and damned if they don't.

The PC society leads to a litigious society that leads to overreaction which leads to the shutdown of speech and expression which leads to fear, anger and frustration which leads to us becoming Sharia compliant or turning on our neighbor.

Just like Obama and Marxists want us to be.

From WND: "2 cautionary tales of gun control" by Joyce Lee Malcolm, who documents how, after a school massacre, the U.K. banned handguns in 1998. A decade later, handgun crime had doubled".

you know and that you LIE.

Why isn't anyone else outraged that the kid put a picture of a communist flag on his laptop? I wonder if he has a Che Guevera shirt in his closet and his dad is ignorant to that too. Really, really sad that people are oblivious to Communist symbols.

PatrickHenrysBody
PatrickHenrysBody

Which country's flag is that? It doesn't look familiar to me. It must be an old one because I don't recognize it. If it's the flag of one of our enemies, I'd like to know which country the flag represents. I believe he just thought the AK looked cool with the background provided and decided to use it for the wallpaper.

Octavian Jones

It's the Yugoslavian flag. The country we bombed to stop attrocities against Muslims in 1999 ... an undeniable fact that the Islamist world conveniently always forgets when ciriticizing our views towards them.

The red star is a symbol of communism. A major pet peeve of mine when at Fourth of July celebrations and people decorate using red stars, the color of the star on the American flag is white, not blue, not red ... white.

PatrickHenrysBody
PatrickHenrysBody

Ah, okay. Thanks Octavian Jones. I don't believe the kid knew which flag it was or the history behind it. If his dad knew, he obviously sure didn't educate his son about it.

Can the school compromise on this one? If the kid points the gun at a picture of a fetus, that will show he is pro-abortion and all will be cool again.

PatrickHenrysBody
PatrickHenrysBody

A picture of a gun pointed at a fetus in a pool of urine with a crucifix in it would be acceptable as well. Maybe even the symbol of Islam would be allowed as well.

But if he points his picture at a picture of Maobama is that an attempt on the Chairman's life?

He would get suspension for the gun picture, and incarceration for terrorist threats against the anointed one. His parents sent to reeducation camp for wrongful indoctrination of a minor and child abuse.

This is just another example of the uber-politically correct thinking and behavior that has permeated and is harming our society today. If he would have been suspended for using his own computer to put the desktop wallpaper on, that would have really crossed the line. Perhaps he was ignorant of the policy regarding school computers. It certainly appeared as if he just didn't realize what the policy was, anyway. I'm glad the school changed the punishment, even though I feel a suspension was still too harsh.

Now the kid knows. He should be ok if he puts pictures of condoms and the morning after pills for the wallpaper, or maybe a Gay Scout leader gleaming with adoration at Obama.

This is what happens when the communistic MSM and DOE are allowed to successfully demonize inanimate objects while simultaneously removing God from the schools and culture.

If we only had a way to know when people thought about guns, we could start a prison camp for those right wing thought criminals.

Guess a picture of a bullseye is out of the question as well. Was pin the tail on the donkey also judged a forbidden game because it was offensive to liberal Democrats?

It would be cool if EVERY child in every school across America posted guns on their computers and FB pages, pasted guns on their notebooks, wore Tshirts with guns and pointed their fingers and went, 'bang-bang' all recess long.

Imagine the leftists going all faintified with the vapors.

But I'm sure that if he had a picture of Stalin or Mao on his laptop, the school would be just fine with that. Disgusting.

John Smyth

Libertyship46 - Thanks for clearing that up. Now I know why kids in school are taught American History of unions, gay and lesbian culture, community organizing and not about the how and why this nation came to be. You dare not mention guns were used to secure our independence and freedom, and you would be expelled for having a picture of a Continental soldier with a weapon. It's just too scary and politically incorrect. But, without those guns, we'd all be speaking German today!

But he did ... he had a picture of a communist country, Yugoslavia. Kid should have been smarter to understand what he was glamorizing on the computer. Yugoslavia is a country that committed masacres. The rad star is what Che Guevera wears on his beret. General Patton has white satrs on his helmet the same like on the American flag.

And every friend of mine, male and female knows that if we're out in public and I start taking jewelry off like my watch and shove it in my front pocket to be prepared for a fight or threat headed in our direction that I've identified.

Funny, how once you're taught to keep your eyes open for potential threats, you NEVER stop that practice. If you're with me you don't need to watch outboard. Just keep an eye on how I'm behaving.

Yep, those are the signs of a dimwitted liberal. Now, when I get angry, or close to the point of violence I tend to go silent.
