Oh, the humanity!

Well, I guess this kid has learned a good lesson. He has learned to keep his mouth shut !!

Unfortunately he will be branded as a "terrorist" for the rest of his life.

He won't think it is fair,

It's NOT fair. After all,he didn't say he could get one and shoot up a school. At MOST the cops should have interviewed him to see if he appeared to be nuts and deserved watching,but he did nothing to deserve being arrested.

but he will have learned a valuable life lesson.

Sad,but true.

Unfortunately he will be branded as a "terrorist" for the rest of his life.

I like to think that sanity will prevail,and in a few months any record of him being detained will be filed away out of sight and access unless he is later arrested for shooting up some place.

The kid kind of sounds like an attention whore,so he can't really complain about getting all this attention.

Unfortunately he will be branded as a "terrorist" for the rest of his life.

How if you don't even know his name?

1) In an abundance of caution,

2) despite the fact that this student is a minor who cannot, in fact, legally purchase such a weapon,

1) Have you been high for the last 35 active shooter incidents? LameStreamMedia media automatically goes into ANTI-GUN LEGISLATION mode and the sane part of this republic scream... IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING, as an effort to cut down on these incidents. AND THATS WHAT WAS DONE HERE, asshole. Unless you like the idea of more gun legislation? Expect state, local and federal governments to do something.

2) As if we've never had a child, not old enough to legally buy a weapon, shoot up a school before. Gabriel Parker was just ONE. You never run out of YELLA BULLSHIT... in your quest to keep the simple government hating minds of LF permanently in fear or agitated with your endless fucking propaganda.

But the question is whether someone should face life-altering consequences for doing it. There was no harm committed. There was no real danger. The authorities involved understood that there was no real danger. The kid is being punished anyway.

Here we go again. If authorities intervene, we get ths crap. If they don't, then Holy Hell breaks loose -- "He said this and you did nothing!"

2) despite the fact that this student is a minor who cannot, in fact, legally purchase such a weapon,

This situation was no different than a kid being arrested for drawing a picture of a gun, pointing his finger like one or chewing a Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun - stupid liberal zero-tolerance policies that do nothing to promote safety in the classroom - rather it makes criminals out of otherwise law-abiding students.

According to Ledyard High School Principal Amanda Fagan, the student said "I could buy an AR-15" or something very similar. That's it.

The student made the comment during his first-period class. The principal was quickly notified, and she made the decision to call the cops even though it was clear to her that he was neither making a threat nor in possession of any actual guns.

In a message to parents, Fagan stressed that the student presented absolutely no danger.

It's not clear what the tone of the remark was — perhaps the young man was complaining that it's too easy to buy a gun.

IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING

"He said this and you did nothing!"

Typical liberal zero-tolerance policies - mention the word "gun" in any context and get arrested.

How long before we arrest kids for thinking about a gun?

FBI: "If they say something, do nothing."

breaching the peace

So this is how the 1st Amendment ends.

Not with a bang but a whimper.

stupid liberal zero-tolerance policies that do nothing to promote safety in the classroom

Neither do gun laws, regulations or bans. Which one (gun laws or extreme zero tolerance) would you like this country to take, asshole?

You do know that one or the other is coming? The scared snowflake sheeple will not sit around and do nothing, dumb shit.

So this is how the 1st Amendment ends.

Not with a bang but a whimper.

That writing was on the wall 75 years ago... when libtardism was instituted and installed in main stream media, entertainment and higher education... to PUSSIFY the sheep. A politician can manipulate weak people better than the strong.

Federal government: "If you see something, say something."

FBI: "If they say something, do nothing."

Federal government: "If you see something, say something."

FBI: "If they say something, do nothing."

DickTard: if you see something, don't say anything, we hate cops... why didn't the lazy Nazi thugs do anything?

There I finished it for ya

Neither do gun laws, regulations or bans.

Why aren't strong educational values more stringently required in order to purchase firearms?

Why aren't strong educational values more stringently required in order to purchase firearms?

Why don't you shut your big fat chalupa eating maw. Our constitution is very clear, WILL NOT BE INFRINGED. Even stupid people have constitutional rights.

This is America... where freedom comes at a cost. That cost is substantial... including the death of children in schools. We stop what we can, and MOVE ON. There is NOTHING that will prevent active shooter incidents... NOTHING. I suggest you grow some thicker skin and un-pussify. Your empathy is the biggest enemy freedom has.

WILL NOT BE INFRINGED

Are educational requirements considered "infringement" to the purchase of a firearm? You know, minor things such as: maintenance, care and storage. You know, little things like: handling, both in publick and private. Tiny things like: local and state laws affecting the use thereof. You know: insignificant points about ballistics, trajectory and handling. I am pretty sure these areas are not considered "infringement."

1) Are educational requirements considered "infringement" to the purchase of a firearm?

2) Tiny things like: local and state laws affecting the use thereof.

You ask a monumentally stupid question with 1

And then contradict your ignorant question with an ignorant statement, 2.

So, YES, dumb shit, legislating ecucational requirements, IS AN INFRINGEMENT.

the student said "I could buy an AR-15", or something very similar.

Or something very similar:

"I could buy an AR-15 and shoot up the school"
"I could buy an AR-15 and kill people"
"I could buy an AR-15 and go out in a blaze of glory.

legislating ecucational (SIC) requirements, IS AN INFRINGEMENT.

You suggest that I am asking stupid questions yet you ignore the tremendous changes in US society since the late 1700s. That is, back in the good ol' days (as an example) when the US was new and fresh with a spiffy Bill o' Rights, society was largely agrarian and having firearms for both personal survival and local business was a requirement to survive. Local, rural societies would often set up competition in firearm's shooting sports to enhance training and proficiency.

Of course, you will say ... that can not be since the NRA wasn't around but the fact remains, training and proficiency in the use of a firearm enhanced survival skills whether for personal defense or for the gathering of game.

Times have changed. Today, the whole nation has changed from 250 years ago. And we permit firearms to be sold and distributed without required education to support the basics of use and maintenance or local law requirements?

I am saying the basics of the Second Amendment for support thereof no longer exists. We need to replace the informal historical roots that no longer exist with formal education.

"I could buy an AR-15 and go out in a blaze of glory.

YES, do it!

Best opus yet, much better than Vic's.

I missed Vic's departure speech. I suppose I'll check it out when I feel like it.

Was it VxH or Pebbles that made him fly the coop?

It was probably 2Kon that was the last straw(man) with his "God's Penis" theory posts about the birth of Jesus.

Pebbles wants to murder people, or let them die a horrible death, because they support a woman's right to choose aka abortion. No thanks, that's Taliban zealotry.

I avoid the religious, theology stuff by choice.

It would be a sin for you to over-strain your brain on theology.

I avoid the religious, theology stuff by choice.

I don't ... I take it "head on" with FULL STEAM AHEAD.

And you condone murdering the most innocent... those that have no choice or say, an unborn child... while you defend a female that's old enough to spawn, that can make choices. This is why the libtard left has pussified our populace into weak minded sheep... and one of their ways to do that is to REMOVE CONSEQUENCES FOR ANYONES ACTIONS. Like getting pregnant.

Your pal, DickTard likes to do the same for criminal behavior

Then ban booze. Let's see what happens.

Shut your shit smacker... libtard.

How? Through a local snake handler that claims to have the power of the Lord or by adhering to Tammy Faye that claims the same dialogue?

Just ban Fred.
