Didn't you just say last night you believe in punishment....and that you think the 10 yr old who got a week at the silent table for eating his pizza into a gun shape and waving it around in the air should have had a bigger punishment?
Either you are for the Totalitarian Nanny State or you are not.

Champions of discipline there!
Who knows, maybe the kid with the "pizza gun" was making fun of another kid who happened to have influential parents.
Just read the article... and the kid's punishment is pretty benign. He only has to sit at the silent table for about a week. After all, the semester is almost over.

I'm an agent of the state. A dam good one. A family man, an honest man, and a hell of a tough guy. I bet you wouldn't tell me that in a bar?
I would. Provided you left your handgun at home, your shotgun in the locker, your ar-15 in the squad car, your tazer on the dresser, your badge up your ass, your buddies at home, and your mouth shut after taking a savage beating. Of course you'd have to do somethin to piss me off first.edit on 21-12-2011 by MaxJohnson because: (no reason given)
LOL!
Don't have a tazer or an AR. (Not a cop, just work for state.) Do have the shotgun, and an AK, and I NEVER leave my handgun at home, but I promise not to get it out of its holster. I've never once unholostered it, or even mentioned that I have it in dozens of fights. I can't guarantee anything about my buddies, they are a rowdy bunch, but they will enjoy watching me for awhile, especially if I happen to be losing.
Now as far as pissing anyone off. Never intentionally done, but never too empathetic to sensitive souls either, so that is a possibility.
Never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal.

Which is exactly the reason why family members dont get to decide punishment and why we have separation of powers. Im not condoning what happened and I certainly dont blame the family for being pissed. All I did was give the most likely reason the family was kept away - its a crime scene.

BTW, I dare you people to tell Mr. King's legacy that he was incorrect too.
