"Oh my god! A kid drew a g*n! Call the police, call the swat team, call CPS, kick him out of school to save us all!!!!"

And that is why we can't have nice things anymore.

So way back during the 2016 election, I was finishing up some mandatories for my trade degree. The teacher made a pretty relevant point about how the upcoming president would have a large impact on this particular subject, as there was a lot of federal fingers in that particular frosting.

Someone made an outrageously stupid, but harmless comment about changing the subject before this turns in to another (recent school shooting).

About 10 seconds later there are police in the room. We were sent out for a break while the police talked to that guy, and ultimately walked him out of the building, and they sent us home for the night.

And then he was back at the next class.

Kid was expelled under the zero tolerance policy for drawing a gun

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Expelled? Arrested.

I'm not sure about that. What was their skin tone?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 12 hours ago

Doesn't matter if they're neurodivergent.

The person said that they arent sure they can defend the answer for much longer. The protection will fail

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 11 hours ago

Well that's a D for defense.

[–] ghostface@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

He didn't even call in air support, can you really claim it was defended???

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 32 points 21 hours ago

Would also accept a series of comic panels from a training montage where Answer learns to fight so it can defend itself.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Really, their answer should be rigged to explode in case the defenses get breached.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 3 points 14 hours ago

Well the defense was clearly not holding very long so...

[–] Atlusb@lemmy.world 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

If I was making this I would give them a small % of the points for defending.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 12 hours ago

If you were making this, it'd be dumb to grade your own work like that.

What is that- double strand? Weak.

B-

Edit: For the uninitiated.

I hope that this is a true story
