Kids arrested for violent crayon drawingsFollow

I'm all for scaring the **** out of kids.

So what, the country has gotten so illiterate we're all communicating with pictures?

Here's one for you:

t(-.-t)

Special ed. or not this is ridiculously absurd, who made the descison to call the cops? Better violent stick drawings then actual violence committed on a classmate.

The kids gave the picture to the alleged victim to scare him. It's not just a picture in that case. They actually gave it to the other kid as an intended threat. THAT is not protected under the constitution.

What about Section III, Article VII?

No ****** shall be locked up for drawings made with crayons and the decision-making skills of a ******? Likewise, Ralph Nader shall run for President every four years until bludgeoned to death with a bacon press in an Amish brothel.

this is ridiculas.... this world has gone to hell in a hand basket...


what happened to good ol' fashoned beatings with a STICK...


these parents need their *** whooped with a stick and then sent to a corner...they also need to pay more attention to what the kids watch..
and on the note of them being taken out of school in hand cuffs....thats *********** there is no reason that a 9 and 10 year old should be subjected to their parents mistakes..

I say they got what's coming to them. Certainly better than waiting to see if they follow through on their imaginative artwork.

Besides, I don't know how it works in Florida, but this'll be off their record by the time they hit 18. Plus, assuming the kids get community service/parole rather than being put in juvie hall with the big kids, it'll scare them straight rather than mess them up more. I'd like to see the police/prosecutor work together with the kids' parents on this without the children's knowledge, so as not to make the kids think that mommy and daddy will always be there to bail them out of trouble with the police, no matter what stupid s[i][/i]hit they do. It's too late for the parents to have a say in this, honestly.

As for the two kids being handcuffed and such... it is a little extreme.

You're welcome.

I agree... this is way out of control. Even when i was in high school I used to draw violent stick figure drawings as a means of relieving stress. Hell, half my teachers found them as funny as I did. I even made personalized ones to give to friends. Welcome to the new neoconservative America, where money talks, and the first ten amendments walk.

Seriously though, what charges are they being held for? The only thing that could even come close is assault, and even that is hard to press since there was never any verbal threat, nor was there any explicit writings detailing a possible threat. A figure drawing tends to not stand up in court, outside of deciding sanity.

I hope the kids get out, and the parents sue the living fu[i][/i]ck out of the school. That was a horrible way to handle things. Those kids, if anything, should have been sent to see the school social worker or shrink.
