I'm pretty sure that "Religious Daggers" are used for ritualistic killings of some kind. Now I ask you...what could possibly go wrong? Toy gun leads to Florida boy's expulsion - CNN Child Still Expelled for Toy Gun - a Year Later | NBC Miami Six-year-old faces expulsion over toy cap gun
I think I'll have crosses and other religious symbols engraved on some hand-grenades, making them Holy Hand-grenades of Antioch...thus they will be allowed anywhere due to their religious status....a few to the kids, a few to friends, offer them to the neighbors...after all they are no longer dangerous with those references to religion...
You can fuck somebody up with a crucifix, too, which symbolizes being tortured to death by Roman Centurions, so why not allow a dagger? The dagger is a symbol to fight evil, the crucifix symbolizes the ordained submission to evil. I hate to point this out, but the consumption of Monsanto products is a form of ritual killing...called slow humanocide. I'm sure the lunchroom at this school has no qualms about serving the children poisoned food, or allowing them to drink toxic water, and the school doesn't mind teaching them the Dick Cheney history of America, so they have no real reason to care about tiny daggers. The kids are suffering from greater threats, why aren't the parents and school board worried about that? General Mills is still just up the road, be very, very, afraid...
I wouldn't have a problem with it if it didn't go against all of the stupid 'Zero Tolerance' rhetoric spewed haphazardly in this country (which I disagree with because I could kill someone very easily with a pencil). But whatever.
Ehh dont like this really. You cant pick and choose who the rules apply too. Who gets sued when this kid gets in a fight ( detroit schools) and the other guy rips the necklace off and stabs the dude with his own necklace knife. Do detroit schools really need to start allowing certain students to bring weapons to school lol?
"The decision by the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools reverses a ban put in place in December after a fourth-grader at a Canton Township elementary school was found with a dull, 3- to 5-inch kirpan." Oh no some kid brought a tiny 3-5 inch DULL knife to school. Are you really that worried about this? Just make him have one with a round tip, problem solved. Now he can't go around stabbing people even if he wanted to. I can't believe this actually makes the news. Are some people really living in fear of tiny dull knives? There's guns everywhere in your country! Just to be clear, they're worried about some kid carrying this: while millions of children in your country have easy access to semi-autmatic handguns. They just took a very tiny story and turned it into an article with a scary title.
A kid at my school had one of those but it wasnt even sharp, I doubt his is either. Its amazing how people overreact over things they know little about. Kinda like when that Sikh was killed because some idiot thought that he was a muslim right after 9/11.
ya that was what i wondering is if it is dull if it is i don't have a problem with it. If they are gonna live in America they should compromise and wear a symbolic dull knife if not tough shit no knife.
I never knew anybody who had access to a handgun when i was school. Now that im an adult i only know three people that own a semi autmatic handgun. Where is this easy access? Exagerate much?
lol. Do you guys remember the kid who got sent home for wearing an american flag t-shirt on cinco-de-mayo (not even close have no idea how to spell it)??? liberalism rocks!
Do you not believe that there are at least more than a million children in America that live in a home where a gun is kept in a drawer or any other poor hiding place? I never said all American children can go into daddy's room and grab his gun. Exaggerate much?
that's part of the problem honestly we are dealing with cultures that can't 'check their religion at the door' when dealing with our secular institutions, so under the guise of multi-cultural tolerance we are supposed to just put up with it. So i can't say i blame anyone for being sick of it we fucking bend over backwards for everybody else
Even though they're not the nearly the worst religion in the world, wearing a knife like that is like saying, "Dont' fuck with me, I'm a Sikh!". I don't think it's appropriate for public school.
That's what it may say to an American who has no knowledge of his religion. That's not at all the meaning of his knife. It's a symbol of his inner struggles. Of course this doesn't necessarily mean it's appropriate for schools but I just wanted to point that out.
When I was in 6th grade the kid two lockers down from me got busted with a .45 in his locker. Ever since then Ive heard of people bragging about bringing guns, and plenty of people getting caught with guns. It might not be easy access in some areas but it defiantly is in the city.
