Extreme Stupidity

I’ve chronicled many acts of stupidity on the part of school “officials” regarding their complete hysteria about guns. From stories about children chewing pop tarts into the rough shape of a gun, to children pointing their fingers at each other and hollering, “bang,” to kids drawing PICTURES of guns. And there’s the story about kids playing “cops and robbers” with toy guns within SIGHT of a SCHOOL BUS. But this tops them all. This teacher saw a 5-year-old child draw a picture that MIGHT have been a gun, and later point her finger at another child and cry, “pew. pew!” so the teacher took the child out of class and forced her to sign a “contract” not to kill anybody, nor herself. I’m sure the process was very upsetting to this child, even though she didn’t understand what it was all about. But I do know one thing: if she planned to kill anybody (remember, this is a five-year-old child), this piece of paper wouldn’t make any difference, at all. Just as people violate restraining orders all the time. Do these people take stupid pills regularly, or what? (KSN)
