A Great Reason Why We Need To Think Before We Pass Laws

[blaxshep]

Yeah, you obviously have no clue what five year old children are like, since you think that nothing a little girl could ever do with a pink toy gun could EVER warrant disciplinary action from her teacher. Jesus, you're so ****ing clueless. Give it a rest already, you just want to get outraged about something, go find something else. You are utterly ignorant of the facts, and you are making a fool of yourself.

Wow, are you ok? Did some mean bully come after you with a cute little pink soap bubble gun when you were 5?

 

[Mycroft]

I am really glad I was 5 years old over 50 years ago and not today. I had hours of fun playing cowboys and indians and pointing my cap pistols and rifle at my brothers and my friends and "shooting" them dead.

LOL!!

Have you ever seen a kid pretend to get shot and die? It's funny as hell.

Poor kids nowadays don't get to have that fun.

Apparently some people incognitio were traumatized by that childhood play. We obviously need a big government agency to oversee these children playing.

I think we need to have all pink soap bubble guns registered and have a ban on assult soap bubble guns immediately before some kid get a soap bubble in the eye.

The last line applies to your responses to this thread more than to anyone else. You are no 'Libertarian' based on what you are posting. Not even close.

Nonsense. You have no ****ing clue what it means to be a libertarian. It means stay out of business that isn't yours. This is a school disciplinary issue, nothing more nor less. A true libertarian knows that the moral imperative is to keep out of such private matters, not use the legal system as a bludgeon against school administrators who were only trying to do their job.

I didn't know it was the school board administrators job to be the cute little pink soap bubble gun police.

I saw somewhere that it was a Hello Kitty bubble gun, so the POTUS may have the authority to ban the import of them there Japanese assault weapons......

At the very least we need to run background checks on these 5 year old terrorists.

Ah... out of control anger, yet another example of how you are nowhere near being a libertarian.

You don't have the first ****ing clue what it means to be a libertarian. You can try to do this Emperor Palpatine routine but it won't give your bull**** argument substance. You think I'm not a libertarian explain why or shut the **** up already.

Uncontrolled rage tied together with the typical left wing 'you don't know, only I know' logic. Yeah, nowhere near libertarian. Not to mention you couldn't explain why a libertarian wouldn't support a decision like this school made WRT the event.

Seriously, dude...any school administration that reacts to a little girl playing with a toy by suspending her and calling her a terrorist isn't doing their job very well and they need to be called out on it by people with common sense.

What's next? Banning "My Little Pony" because a kid may get trampled in a pretend world?

A 5-year-old girl was suspended from a Pennsylvania kindergarten after telling another girl that she was going to shoot her. The weapon she was going to use was a pink toy gun that blows soapy bubbles.

Mount Carmel Area School District officials questioned the student without her parents present, deemed the girl a "terrorist threat" and suspended her for 10 days, according to attorney Robin Ficker, who was hired by the family to fight the suspension.

The incident happened on January 10 as the preschoolers were waiting in line for a schoolbus, Ficker told news website PennLive.com.

The girl, who has not been identified, said something like "I'm going to shoot you and I will shoot myself," referring to the toy. She did not have the bubble gun on her person at the time.

School officials learned of the conversation and questioned the girl for over 30 minutes the next day, Ficker said. After the talk, she was suspended for 10 days, branded a threat and required to be evaluated by a psychologist, he added.

"This little girl is the least terroristic person in Pennsylvania," he said.

The punishment has since been reduced to two-day suspension, the attorney said. He also argued that the girl's permanent record should be expunged, and that she should be offered an apology.

Ficker said he was hired because the girl's mother read that he had handled a similar case in Maryland. In that case, he represented a 6-year-old boy who was suspended by an elementary school for pointing at another student with his fingers folded like a gun and saying "pow."

School authorities called it a "serious incident," and said the boy "threatened to shoot" the other student.

Gun-related violence at schools is a painful issue in the US after the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. The shooting claimed 26 lives, including 20 children, shocking the nation and triggering a heated debate over tighter gun control.

How stupid! A "serious" incident. Give me a break! A 5-year-old is practically still a baby and doesn't know about political correctness! I find these incidents to be so maddening!

Kids need to know that threats are not acceptable behavior. There is nothing in the tiny bit of information about this incident that indicates that it is an incorrect action on its face. It could be an innocent kid playing with a bubble gun or there could be more to the story than you know. Were you there to hear the context of the threat? If not then shut the **** up about it.

"the context of the threat" Ha-Ha! A THREAT from a little girl FIVE years old! How would go about making me shut up? Your "behavior" is not acceptable so I am going to have my grandughter shoot you with a soap bubble. Run for your life. (She's four years old)

Well, does being libertarian mean I swear and tell people to shut in my empty, shallow posts to fill the void known as lack of substance? You're a real tuff one when it comes to typing. Your avatar perhaps reflects your IQ........Homer

Perhaps the best reason why we need to 'think' before we enact anti-gun laws is because the ideological movement is all predicated on lies and misinformation. Turns out the shooter in Newtown used...Handguns. The Aurora Colorado shooters 'assault weapon'...jammed less than a third of the way through a magazine and he went on to shoot 70 people using a shotgun and a handgun. The Giffords shooter...handgun. The VA Tech shooter....handgun. THE VAST majority of gun violence that occurs throughout the country? Weapon type is irrelevant because they use any and everything they can but for the most part? Handguns.

Oh...but that's not the mantra, is it? The mantra is "high capacity magazines! Assault weapons! Military style weapons. Eeeevil looking rifles.

They don't care about the facts...they want to ban guns and will dance in the blood of dead children to accomplish their goals.

Send the little terrorist to Gitmo!

It is a matter of political expediency; first you establish precedent by a "popular" ban (that takes away nothing), then ramp it up incrementally adding bits and pices to it. The hope is that the existance (unchallenged) of the first "reasonable" bans will establish precedent for the further bans. If a limit of 10 rounds is good, just and Constitutional, then why not 5 or even one? If it is OK to charge $140 for a CCW permit then why not $1400? The principle is exactly the same, so then the argument must shift only to the number/cost of the permits, not the basic idea of rights permits.

The trick is to use (incremental?) evolution, rather than revolution (all at once?), to accomplish the goal of increasing gov't power and reducng individual rights. Of course, the rich and powerful will be spared, as ususal, and will be granted all of the permits that are required to remain armed/protected (they view it as only another annoying tax increase), it is only those that must decide if they would rather eat and pay rent or take a gun class and pay for a gun permit that are limitted to not daring to take their gun off of their property, as it may then be legally taken from them and used as just cause to fine/jail them.

 

[blaxshep]

It is the rich that use their unlimited wealth to buy circumvention of the constitutional rights to begin with so of course they will be exempt.

If we really want to protect the rights of the people we need wealth control. there is a point where success ends and power of corruption begins.

And of course, we have seen the OTHER tactic as well...when you are in a rush to pass worthless anti-gun legislation, claim it is 'for the children' and then make the issue be about anyone that OPPOSES your moronic anti-gun legislation and not the anti-gun legislation.

Oh yeah...and use the words 'compromise' and "common sense' and 'reasonable' a lot when you are promoting your moronic anti-gun legislation.

Terrorist!

Reason enough to pass the Patriot Act. I shudder to think what she'll be like next year!!!!!!!!! God Help Us!

"Childred threatening to kill other children"!!!??? FIVE YEARS OLD!!! You should apply for a position at that school, you would fit right in. Perhaps you could push for an infant prison cell to be built.

Timeout of 3 days with bread and water and hard labor? :lamo
