Kindergartner suspended for thoughtcrime

[Donnelly]

If any one should be suspended, it should be that principal for abusing his authority,

Why, just the other day I was in the store and picked up an item, but soon thought better of it and returned it to the shelf... without paying for it.










I expect JBTs at my door any minute.

Holy ! I've had a knife in my pocket every day since I was 9 years old. I guess I'm public enemy number 1!

I think that you have to think about using the knife ( in any way, such as thinking about putting it in your pocket).

OH GOD, I just thought about you thinking about a knife. Flee to the safe room!

They had to pull all letter "K" encyclopedias from school libraries as they contain a picture of a knife.

So now we have to tell our kids and our grandkids that the responsible adults in their lives will probably punish you for doing the right thing....but go ahead and do the right thing anyway? Liberalthink is so exasperating!!

Isn't "Liberalthink" an oxymoron, as in the world would simply implode. I...i didn't think about the world imploding...no officer...no.....I swear!!!!!

On a second note, the principal DID think and DID suspend that kid. So in his rational (if it could be called that) he is doubly guilty as he admitted he was wrong to suspend him because graduation is Friday. Also BS, graduation day shouldn't be a reason to punish or not. Just a slimeball trying to save face and be "generous" since the 5 year old was graduating.

If I got penalized for everytime I had a "wrong" thought, I wouldn't have a job anymore....I'd be in jail soooo many times, oh crap....shouldn't have said that now

it would be funny if it weren't so sad.

I think it's cool the parents pressed until the principal was forced to issue the apology he was so dead set against giving

And it was still a half-a**** apology. "I wouldn't have suspended him if I knew it was graduation day".

A) Not really a decent apology.
B) I guess it's expecting too much of the principal to know when graduation day is.
