When I wrote last week’s Anti-Gun Wacko of the Week column about University of Colorado Professor Jerry Peterson, I chose the name of the column on a bit of a whim. I didn’t really expect that I would find that level of outrageousness on a weekly basis.

But by now, you would think I would know better than to underestimate the ability of bureaucrats to make blindly stupid decisions.

And that brings us to today’s story about 3-year-old Hunter Spanjer. Hunter is, by all reports, a happy and well-loved child who attends preschool in Grand Island Nebraska. Hunter is just like all the other boys and girls except for one thing … the school board wants to take away his name.

We just have to keep the pressure on. As long as they know the public will hold them accountable, we have a chance to stop this 'zero-tolerance' BS.

This one is better than last week's wacko-o-da-week.

This kid is better suited for public office than most guys running in the GOP .. after all, he has been a Hunter since the day he was born.

How can this possibly make sense in anyone's mind? I mean who actually came up with this idea and what idiots went along with it? I hope the family and the ACLU sue...

Can you imagine if the kid had been named Gunner? :banghead:

Yeah, definitely not subjecting my kids to this kind of moronic bureaucracy that cares more about Federal funding and political correctness rather than kids and their education.

I hope so. The ACLU is reportedly considering the issue.
