You can't blame this on their zero tolerance policy, either.


But Lansingburgh High has a zero-tolerance policy, and when school officials discovered that Whalen kept his knife locked in his car, he says, they suspended him for five days — and then tacked on an additional 15 after a hearing.

Blame it on the statist douchebags who voted at the hearing. They should all be fired. They just like to punish people like that so that they can continue to have a reason for keeping their job.

I don't know if abolishing public schools is the right answer, but I certainly don't argue against it.. mostly cause of crap like this.

I don't know what I could do, because technically ... I did break the rules, and I'll accept that punishment," he said

If he thinks that way, he deserves the punishment. If he does go to Westpoint, I'm sure he'll be more than willing to attack US Citizens because, "Those are the orders. They must be right."

But on his honor to do his best, how is he going to protect his country without even a knife?

The fundamental problem is that there are schools operated by the government.


And I am an Eagle Scout myself.

1. Even if you're doing business with the government. it pays not to park on government property. Walk the extra block.

2. Even if you're doing nothing wrong, do not cooperate with the government under any circumstances.

If you think they are there to help you, you need to lay off the meds. They are there for one purpose only: To stuff you into a one-size-fits-all mold that doesn't fit you--or anyone else who ever lived.
