Reading crap like this is like hitting my head with a sledge hammer: it feels good when I stop. Oy!
They would have freaked if they saw some of pics taken when we had our local NG unit come to the Jr. High with all the fun toys and the rifle range on HS property…even the woman over the yearbook took a great pic of my shooting with a training device that made it into the yearbook
Or when a classmate of mine in Cicero Illinois (1968) brought an actual Manlicher-Carcano to debate class to prove that Oswald could indeed have racked the bolt three times in the allotted time interval of the Zapruder film.
The administration should be shamed out of their jobs.
“The administration should be shamed out of their jobs.”
Complete lack of shame is a requirement for a Progressive…
Shame from a progressive? The only shame a progressive feels is to deny that “white privilege” keeps the minorities poor, uneducated and in jail.
The only shame a progressive feels is to fly an anerican flag to show pride in ones country and ones culture.
The only shame a progessives feels is to say that there is an absolute right and wrong and to feel shame in violating those wrongs.
The only shame a progressive feels is to say that there are no victims. That each person that is an adult is responsible for their own actions.
The only shame a progressive feels is to say that there are evil people in the world and that the only cure for their evil actions is a lethal response, whether on a personal level, or as a national military action.
To a progressive, there is no shameful action, since the ends justifies the means.
Having interacted with quite a few, I have to disagree!
They’re ashamed to be male
They’re ashamed to be white.
They’re ashamed to be American.
And they insist that YOU have to feel bad about it too.
(Note that they’re not ashamed to be successful, rich, or that they have armed guards)
faceplant.
Just say no.
Poor kid needs to leave that shite “school”…this is right up there with finger and pop-tart “guns”.
A shining example of the Liberal insanity that exists within schools!
Hmm, should have been better instructed in trigger discipline before the photo was taken…
Oh…I think he has it right this time.
After reading that story, I feel like I should go to the hospital and have my blood tested for derp poisoning.
And these are the people in charge of educating the next generation?
I sure am glad I made the jump for the rest of that one sentence.
Poor Canada. They are so screwed. Here is Stephen Crowder and Dana Loesch with more:

And the young man learns what from all this? Nice going there education system.
They expose themselves…
Context. This is why it’s important to get the facts before taking any kind of action.
Like Australia and England…. They are subjects, not citizens. Big brother indeed.
This kid needs an invite to the white house!
Maybe Sig Sauer can hook him up with a gift basket.
An invite to the Obama White House, requires one to make a clock out of clock parts, have family ties to a radical cleric and a history of doing “pranks” at school.
An invite to the Clinton WH just requires a checkbook…
Or big tits, if it’s the 1990s Clinton White House
A checkbook gets a night on the Lincoln Bedroom, the other gets a “personal” tour of the Oval Office after hours starring “little willie.”
I was gonna go with “A private showing of Free Willie.”
Clearly the only solution to this problem is to ban kids. No kids, no kids holding guns.
In all seriousness my real complaint about that picture is that that firearm isn’t sitting in my safe right now.
People get all the government they pay for…
Fortunately, that’s not really true, because it’s inefficient and bungling, and oftentimes subsidizes (out of one department) what it speaks out against (from another department).
I am very glad we don’t get all the government we pay for, because we pay for an awful lot of it, something like four trillion dollars of it, and that’s just the federal level.
Sorry, no. They don’t necessarily get what they pay for.
But when it comes to local school boards, they get what they deserve.
You can grow a pair and run for school board yourself, or you can sit back and let the inmates run the asylum.
Little surprise here, unfortunately. How Zero tolerance policies, or laws, are not thrown out on constitutional grounds pretty much explains the direction( and destination) of this country, regardless of which party in in power.
Meh. From what I understand after reading the article elsewhere, the kid had some sort of stupid comment on the pic. Without any context, I still think the district overreacted a little, but not to the extent most of the posters here do.
Even acknowledging my pro-2A standpoint (granted, this is Canada), I just don’t get what the problem is here. He has a school logo on. OK. He’s carrying a rifle. OK. So what?
There’s nothing menacing about his pose or expression. There’s no threat toward anyone specifically or even generally. I’m seeing a legal rifle, as far as I know of Canadian law, and a teenage boy, which I assume is also still legal in Canada.
As far as the school knew at first, this was completely innocuous behavior, off campus and unrelated to the school. That this ended up having been photographed at the school itself, during a school-sanctioned is the story’s hook, but even that shouldn’t matter. There’s no crime or violation of anything here.
What an embarassment on the school’s part. The decision maker there really ought to stare deeply into a mirror and repeat until it takes: “This is who I am. This is what I’ve become. I NEED TO MAKE SOME CHANGES.”
I’m actually wondering, are para M249s “legal” firearms for Canadian citizens? From the story, it was actually brought in to school for some Canadian Armed Forces day. Which is actually cool in itself, seeing that even here in America, I can imagine plenty of snowflake teachers and parents freaking out if a Marine or Soldier brought in the same weapon into a similar school function.
Why does the school have access to his facebook page (parents, get with the times, help you kids protect their own privacy)?
Why is the school wasting time looking at kids’ facebook pages?
