    “Oh my god! A kid drew a g*n! Call the police, call the swat team, call CPS, kick him out of school to save us all!!!”

    And that is why we can’t have nice things anymore.

      So way back during the 2016 election, I was finishing up some mandatories for my trade degree. The teacher made a pretty relevant point about how the upcoming president would have a large impact on this particular subject, as there was a lot of federal fingers in that particular frosting.

      Someone made an outrageously stupid, but harmless comment about changing the subject before this turns in to another (recent school shooting).

      About 10 seconds later there are police in the room. We were sent out for a break while the police talked to that guy, and ultimately walked him out of the building, and they sent us home for the night.

      And then he was back at the next class.
