'Stick gun' gets 5-year-old suspended from North Carolina school
http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/03/29/stick-gun-gets-5-year-old-suspended-from-north-carolina-school.html
Caitlin Miller and several of her classmates were playing make-believe last week on the playground at McLauchlin Elementary School in North Carolina.
One of her friends was pretending to be a queen and another was pretending to be a princess. Caitlin was their protector. And in order to protect the Royals, she armed herself with a stick that resembled a gun.
Within a matter of minutes, the 5-year-old was snatched up by a teacher and sent to the principal’s office – accused of a heinous offense.
More PC stupidity! PC needs to die! :mad:

IMO:
* Parent who can find a way to do it should send their children to private schools or homeschool; we did the latter, K-12;
* The PS system is so rotten with SJW bullies and educational malpractitioners who are protected by unions and educrats that it's irredeemable.
I don't have any solutions to the obvious facts that: 1. many parents cannot afford to homeschool or pay private school tuition (no-strings government-paid tuition to Christian parochial schools is when-pigs-fly unlikely); 2. there are not enough private schools "out there" to accommodate them if, magically, they could.
There are many good teachers and admins "out there". I know some. But the sad fact is that it takes just one year with a SJW bully and/or educational malpractitioner to screw up the education of an entire classroom full of children. And unless that SJW bully and/or educational malpractitioner does something so horrible as to be arrested, they'll screw up another classroom full of children the next year, and the next, and the next ... . Even a good school full of good teachers and admins is in constant risk of SJW bullies and educational malpractitioners being transferred in.

I'm friends on Facebook with my old English teacher. She isn't very much of a liberal. She posts things like this.
