Y’know, I went to a public (Gov. controlled) school. None of my teachers where communists… except for maybe my art teacher.
He’s able to go back to school now.

The school is retarded. Not the students, but the faculty.
So it wasn’t just the drawing, the kid made some kind of threat according to the video?
Hmmm. It’ll be interesting to see what he said that was so threatening. Maybe it was something like, “You don’t like my bomb drawing?”
Btw, +1 to his mom for being MILFtastic.
Actually we give the mom +2. Major Milfage.
And you think that anyone with any sense and any class takes you seriously with these kind of disgusting remarks that you make about women??
Don’t you have an abortion to be rooting for someplace?
Yours but it obviously didn’t work.
It could be worse, it could have been botched like yours.
the mom & dad were on “biggest looser” a few years ago. Many many pics available on the www.
From what I have heard, the exact quote from the kid was “I have a bomb,” while he was showing it to someone. If the teacher knew anything about autistic children, they take, and describe, everything in the most basic way possible. It did not register in his brain that what he had was in fact a “picture of a bomb,” just that it was a bomb. He was proud of it, and was showing it off to a friend.
The teacher definitely should have show brief (and I mean very brief) concern, but once realizing the context in which “I have a bomb” was used completely dismissed it. It never should have made it out of her classroom, much less to the point of becoming news.
Another Reason Private Schools Are Terrible!!!

Catholic schools and buggery. This whole conversation is stupid.
Big bad government schools. Everyone is acting more imature than me and I’m pretty damn immature.
Big bad mail
Big bad public roads
Big bad sidewalks
Big bad parks
Actually Colonel my research took about 45 Seconds. Type private school and child abuse into Google.
That said I was responding to Mr. Folk’s headline with a comparable headline. Clearly if this overreaction by one school makes all public schools terrible, the case I cited and thousands of more I could find make Private Schools even more terrible.
I have a very bright, attractive, gifted and talented daughter in her early 20’s. She would have made a great teacher. She talked about it her entire life. Her friends in education hate it. They are astounded at the lack of common sense in the public school systems. They are stunned at the idiots hired from sub-par colleges who are there to make a quota. They cannot believe the number of “consultants” in the South Carolina Education Department. Even her advisors at her university rolled their eyes and told her she did not want to go into education. It’s pathetic.
Next up, a kid draws a 5 dollar bill and gets hauled off by the Secret Service for counterfeiting currency.
There are only 11 states with a lower starting salary for public school teachers, so what do you expect?
I don’t think pay has a lot to do with it. Schools across the country overreact heavily to stuff like this, and zero-tolerance policies just make the overreaction even worse.
Why do they over react? Because of the ambulance chasers.
Oh yes, lawsuits are a big part of it. The other half, though, is sensationalized crap on the news and trying to “prevent the next Columbine” by making sure no one has plastic knives or points their finger and makes “pow” noises.
None of this catches the truly mentally ill, whether in or outside the school, of course, but not enough people ever seem to figure that out to stop this stuff.
However, we’re in the middle third for expenditure per pupil – kind of makes you wonder where the money goes doesn’t it?
Yea, last time I looked SC funded at #26. The money is being pissed away.
Two more dollars for the government-run jar!
I wouldn’t call this an explosive situation but I will say the school district bombed with it’s decision.
sic(k) willie,
“…you ignorant slut…” :)
The sic(k) one hates it when our Funding Editor calls him an “ignorant slut” because he knows it fits FITS perfectly. It’s from an old SNL late night show.
It’s an honest and dramatic way of clearly demonstrating sic(k) willie doesn’t have a clue what he is talking about.
Who don’t know that?
sic(k) willie will puke up anti-public school rhetoric for anyone who pays. Particularly if they provide the script. Howie the Voucher Clown pays and provides scripts.
When sic(k) willie attacks public education, all he does is puke rhetoric from Howie the Voucher Clown and other wackos who say or do anything to attack public schools.
Odd that sic(k) willie is supporting this student. In the past he has used the offensive word “retard” so many times that our Funding Editor has lost count.
A voucher plan by any name is a scam because voucher would only leave those who need help the most even further behind.

Your prejudices are showing…libtard.
Wow, milftastic, fo sho.
Anyway, typical “zero tolerance” bullshit. Look away from common sense.
What a bunch of dicks.
You have to coach your kids in this shit, parents. That’s the only way they’ll survive public school, unless they’re thugs, then it’s culture sensitivity.
He drew Boris and Natasha’s bomb!
The land that time forgot!
Reason #42 I work 5 gigs to keep my kids away from these politically correct, intellectually stunted public schools…
Evidently common sense is a thing of the past……..
Zero tolerance policies are made by lazy cowards that don’t want to use common sense and judgment and deal with situations on a case by case basis. They want their $200,000 paychecks to sit in an office and dictate policy with keyboards and through their computer monitors.
That’s pretty much where even the gubmint janitors are at now. X(
When I was in 5th grade a kid sitting at my table drew a picture of a penis and titled it “one eyed wonder worm.” The teacher saw it, flipped out, took all the kids sitting at the table into the office (there were 4 of us), paddled us and called a conference with our parents. I remember the teacher asking us if we knew what a penis was and why would the one kid draw such a thing and why would he call it a “one eyed wonder worm.” He told her he saw it on HBO. If I were the teacher I would have just told the kid to throw it away.
And here I thought it was a regional thing.
OK, so here is the deal, folks. I don’t know the whole situation, so I am not going to be altogether judgmental. But this public school district may have very well made a mistake in this case.
But the vast majority of private schools in South Carolina will NOT accept students with autism at all.
Have the educrats never seen a Coyote vs Road runner cartoon? Ka-blam!
I’m sure a private school will be glad t give this student a scholarship…
