Its called homeland security law. You can be charged for any infraction they make up. The system now is geared to create a record in there database to follow you for life.

My son has been disiplined for ' looking mean at another person ', and for ' mumbling that aggravates others ', etc. ANY two bit silly thing is not a matter for the cops and Homeland Security!! Amazing..simply sickening. If this is not proof positive of an impending police state, what is?

Gone are the days where a teacher would see a quality in a student and work on that.
Gone are the days where a student feared the teacher and principal( fear as in respect) because they knew if they got out of line the punishment would be swift.
Gone are the days where if you got punished in school that was the least of your worries, you were more worried about what Dad or Mom would do.
Gone are the days of common sense and good judgement because teachers and principals can't make decisions anymore because our government does it for them by way of thousands of pages of rules and laws written by men and women with bigger agendas.

when i was a kid which was about 10 years ago, i think, i and a group of friends were taken straight to the principle's office for...well..from what i remember was sort of mafia-play. we would pretend we were part of the mafia, totally innocent stuff of course, we hardly knew what mafia was at the time but we got these ideas from movies and what not. all i did was just make hand gestures of guns pointing at each other pretending to be in some kind of gang fight. the teacher spotted that and got angry and since i was the one who spearheaded this, i was the one who was confronted by the principle. anyway punishment was to stand in front of a wall/corner in a kindergarten class to humiliate us.

Your post (and the links) make no sense?
Those pictures are not of anyone pointing their finger to pretend they are shooting someone.
Maybe Im missing the point? The point - har har.
