i figure i must be off my rocker so here's what i've noticed:
post #2, nightmare makes fun of the situation
post #3, the truth agrees with nightmare about the overreaction. clearly because in the end he "only" had a pellet gun we can joke about it. i mean there was no chance he lied and it was a real gun or that he had another non-pellet gun. obviously the student making threats to shoot other kids is laughable.
post #6, nightmare again makes light of the situation by calling zero tolerance for guns in schools as "thougtlessness"
post #10, nightmare compares a kid with a gun (who no one can be sure of was a pellet gun) and him threatening to shoot other kids, and then leaving school to an elementary student eating a pop tart into the shape of a gun.
post #15, color of law uses his way back machine to think we're all over reacting to a student having a gun and making threats because when he grew up it was ok to bring rifles into school. probably hes not old at all.
post #17, once again color of law calls us all brainwashed because we're not accepting that guns used to be mainstream in school and a kid bringing a gun and making threats is just us non ancient folks over reacting.
post #22, weird post, color of law is now acting macho saying he's had guns held to his head and calling us out for not educating our schools about gun safety. i cant tell what he's hoping to accomplish but i can only imagine he's trying to get all the students to be safe when they bring guns to school.
post #26, color of law trying to convince us that crime is down even though every metric used shows its up both the amount and percent relative to population
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States
once again we're over reacting and at the mercy of government and the media. kids should clearly be allowed to have guns in school because he did 50 years ago.
post #36, skidmark joins late and rather than be the voice of reason by looking through the actual content of the posts he defends people's old views and ways of doing things. he thinks the old Alzheimers club has wisdom ignoring the fact that they advocate for guns in schools and that we're over reacting to kids bringing them in and making threats against other kids.
yup, that's why i rarely post here. in 2.5 years i've seen it time and time again. everyone has one point of view, the one that existed 50 years ago. those were the best of times. nothing bad happened then because the population was half what it is now and without social media no one knew about murder until weeks after it happened and it was a byline on page 10. i wish we could go back to unicorn land where gay was a curable disease, blacks were garbage and women were property. ah the good ole days!
