Tim, Re: < Zero Tolerance Takes Toll On Students> The world is full of morons in places of responsibility. And it's full of other morons who'll defend their actions. ". . It turned out 10-year-old Aaron Godec and six other fourth-grade boys were being suspended for the rest of the day for pointing their fingers like guns during a game of army-and-aliens on the playground. . . Ken Lane, Colorado deputy attorney general, says the occasional overreaction to student mischief is outweighed by the benefits of keeping schools safer." Sure wouldn't want the kids finger to 'go off'. Was it loaded? What finger was he 'shooting' with? Maybe we need a 'permit to carry' fingers now? God help you if you put your fingers in your pocket. Then it'd be a concealed weapon. ;-] tgptndr
