    Wear a gun related shirt to school and go home. Simple.

    You're not suppose to wear alcohol branded clothing or anything either.

    Well aside from his beliefs, that situation is 50/50. I do think it's a little extreme to take a walk down the road with a rifle. If I was the cop I would have been worried approaching him. The arrest was uncalled for.

    The media is to blame for false perception over reality. There's nothing unusual about someone walking down a remote road with a rifle. If he was wearing camo with a 12gauge on his back, nobody would have noticed. The type of rifle is what intimidates people. The perception of said rifle is far from the reality of it.

    That guy getting stopped because of his appearance is about the same as a black guy getting stopped for wearing a backwards hat. Neither are in violation of any law, but the perception is misleading.

    BS.

    It has nothing to do with the type of gun.

    I do indulge in facts. As a matter of fact, while tracing the real story down, the police officers said he refused to take his hand off the loaded gun. Something realclearpolitics conveniently left out of their story.

    More biased drivel. If that was the shirt in question, I wouldn't want my son dressing like a trailer trash hillbilly to school either. And it sounds like he put up a fight with the administrators as well.

    This is also part of the indoctrination process. "cool kids" like blankcd describe a shirt supporting your 2nd amendment rights, one of the rights this country was founded on as "dressing like a trailer trash hillbilly". Funny thing about it, he's a part of the most racially sensitive groups.

    Yeah, he "put up a fight with administrators" about the same as Rosa Parks put up a fight with bus drivers.

    I don't think that word "indoctrination" means what you think it means

    And Im sure I don't have to explain to you the difference between this and civil disobedience.

    I like this new side of you where you actually reveal the type of person you really are rather than the politically correct version you pretend to be. The real you looks at a typical southern white guy and thinks " trailer trash hillbilly "


    Indoctrination is the process of inculcating ideas, attitudes, cognitive strategies or a professional methodology (see doctrine).[1] It is often distinguished from education by the fact that the indoctrinated person is expected not to question or critically examine the doctrine they have learned

    Where are the young kids being educated to think critically concerning the shirt in question? I didn't see anything to suggest that they are being taught why they shouldn't wear it, only that it was not allowed. If they aren't, then the term indoctrination could be used, could it not?

    It's not really the schools place to teach kids how to dress, is it? This is a failure on the parents behalf.

    The west virginia state flag has guns crossed on it. That particular high school has a statue outside of it of someone holding a rifle. Pardon me if i would question my son wearing a 2nd amendment shirt being appropriate.

    Only to you delusional bleeding heart liberals are guns an abnormality in society.

    I agree that it is the parent's place. It's sad that the school even has to address it.
    That point we agree on.

    If the school isn't teaching about it though, in regards to this case, then technically, it does fall under indoctrination. I'm not making an argument that indoctrination is good or bad, just that technically this could fall under that term in this case, and cases that are similar where teaching is not implemented along with the practice.

    The school shouldn't be teaching the kids what to wear and what not to wear at all. The rules are in place, its my job as a parent to see that he follows them. I wouldn't want my son wearing my political ideologies on his back either. If he wants the shirt, fine, but he doesn't wear it to school. Dress like someone who's in school to learn.

    If you want to use the word indoctrination, the parents indoctrinated him to think its ok to wear a sleeveless tshirt with guns and a political ideology on the front of it to school.

    I don't disagree with you on this.

    Just remember though - if a kid is wearing an anarchy, Jesus, or "gay rights" t-shirt, the same rules should apply.
    Gay Ohio Student Sues Over Right to Wear T-Shirt - ABC News
    http://www.change.org/petitions/tell...nding-students
    Michigan School Reverses Student's Suspension For Wearing ""Anarchy"" T-Shirt | American Civil Liberties Union
    Canadian Student Suspended for Wearing Jesus T-Shirt

    It's really sad that administrators are more concerned about what the kid is wearing, rather than what he is learning.

    I think when you register your car you should have to list the path your vehicle travels routinely and whenever you go beyond that path you should have to get a permit. They should also use the progressive snapshot to monitor the driving behavior of all drivers and maybe one day be able to remotely limit a car's ability or shut it off if the driver does something that warrants suspicion or wonders off his path. it would save lives and assist the police in tracking fugitives.

    imagine if South Africa adopted some of Obama's gun control policies.... it could have prevented something like this from ever happening.



























    "In South Africa, owning a gun is conditional on a competency test and several other factors, including background checking of the applicant, inspection of an owner's premises, and licensing of the weapon by the police introduced in July 2004. The process is currently undergoing review,[1] as the police are at present, not able to adequately or within reasonable time, process either competency certification, new licenses or renewal of existing licenses. Minimum waiting period frequently exceeds 2 years from date of application"

    I kinda agree with where he's coming from, but i would chose to be more tactful in how i said it. I am tired of these victims being paraded around on the gun control campaign too..... but i also realize that these are grieving families that are being manipulated by politicians. I would carefully express to those victims that the actions of criminals should not have an effect on my rights as a law abiding citizen. Given the chance to speak to Obama, Piers Morgan or any of the other gun control pushers........ i would tell them to suck a dick. Unfortunately..... most of those liberal democrats, Obama especially.... would probably just think to themselves "been there, done that"

    Romney would not have been without issues. It would just be a different set of problems with him. Incidents such as Newtown, Aurora, Benghazi, and Boston still would have occurred, the Administrations responses may have differed.
