Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

Perhaps they are trying to catch problems early on - before the kid becomes a mass shooter later. Perhaps this particular kid has brought focus to guns before? We don't know all the details here.

Probably a gun totin bible thumper republicant kid in whose family it is considered a "right" to show the gun as a means of ahem, self defense. Which we all know as weapons of mass destruction.
Anyway, the point isn't that the average liberal is this crazy, but rather that this craziness is just the natural extension of liberalism.
Umm, of course it's school administrators, who else would ban things in schools? But that's not the only commonality, the other commonality is liberalism.

And of course, teachers unions, like any other labor union, are well-known for their political neutrality.

Originally posted by phank View PostIn any case, as presented, this case sounds stupid. There doesn't appear to be any official school sponsorship or support. Now, if the rest of the story, omitted for some reason, is that the school denied the same opportunity to a group of wiccans, then we might have something substantive here.Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Originally posted by Jedidiah View PostSupport for the Constitution as written, not as liberal folks are trying to get it changed to. See all the false information in some of the official textbooks. And no, I will not link to them. I am sure you have seen some awful stuff, but it may not have seemed awful to you.
I'm asking this because I know conservative public schools exist in large numbers and want to know how you define a school's political ideology. That way I can better address your disagreement.

Originally posted by Psychic Missile View PostCould you be more specific? If you were to walk into a public school, how would you know whether it was liberal or conservative?

Originally posted by Jedidiah View PostThis specific case a conservative school would say as long as we are not involved it is okay. Another example I have seen lately was a school teaching a paraphrased version of the 2nd amendment specifying that only state militias were covered by that amendment. A conservative school would offer the actual verbiage of the amendment and invite discussion. These are just a couple examples.

Originally posted by Psychic Missile View PostThose are still pretty vague. Let me get to the point. Would a conservative school allow for an explicitly Christian placard to be hanged on its walls? Would a conservative school teach abstinence only? Would a conservative school open its sports games with prayer? Would a conservative school teach creationism or intelligent design? How did liberal ideology manage to slip into schools in rural, conservative areas? The idea that all public schools are places of liberal thought is not only ludicrous but borders on conspiracy theory.
A public school should not support one religion over another, as is being done in one North Carolina school. In that case it is support for Islam and no comment on Christianity. A public school should teach sexual morality as opposed to do what feels good, sex should be learned at home. A public school should allow purely student organized and led prayer to open games. YEC is not science, nor is ID. Liberal thought is not pro liberal socially or economically. Liberal thought should allow equal freedom to ask any question that comes up, and those questions should be answered without bias.Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
