Dumb High School Kid...........

[N8GAV]

This may be belong in the "Gun Debate" if so move it. This morning local dummy came to wood shop class with a old bolt action .22 with an broken stock he wanted to repair. This kid had no clue how to take the stock off so leaving the bolt at home, hoping that the shop teacher, who happens to be a good friend of mine would help tear down the gun. Gene, the shop teacher, told him he had no problem with him repairing the stock, but was surprised to see him bring in the gun and not the stock. Big Stink happen, police, sheriff, and now kid has to go to Juvie Court, and is out of school till he goes to court. Dumb, but was smart by leaving the bolt at home.

Is not "dumb high school kid" kind of redundant?

Anyhow, the kid is lucky he didn't get shot.

He is a local boy here in the hood Carl. A good kid who family is having a hard time, dad lost his job in the mill and works part-time and his mother works part-time at our local Sears store, but there is talk that that store will be closing. He cuts my lawn, made sure that our driveway and sidewalk were clear this winter. Wife and I rented his Tux for his prom for this year. All the little dummy had to do was bring the .22 here I would have tore it down or him. Guess he just wasn't thinking.

Hah, and just think. Back when I was in high school I used to bring my .22 rifle to school, bolt and all, and it was all good and okay with the teachers, principal, etc.

Sorry, my comment wasn't aimed at that kid in particular, it was aimed at high school kids in general and based on my own high school-aged self who was dumb as a freakin' rock.

Just keep in mind that 6 year old boys have been expelled from school for making a gun symbol with their thumb and forefinger.

Well I hate to hear this about the youngin, but it reminds me of a funny news story I read the other day about some teen yelling "BINGO!" and not having Bingo and set off a riot somewhere. He was arrested for disorderly conduct.

The kid made a mistake. No question.

Under the circumstances, let's just hope he doesn't run into a Zero Tolerance mentality at either the school board or courthouse. But I wouldn't give odds on it.

Mold on the brain, it's a common phenomenon in the West Bay.
