Pokey, this story just reeks of political correctness. Even though bows and arrows and guns are both weapons, somehow I feel that native Americans are exempt from such foolishness. I hope it is hard to find an American history book without a picture of an Indian with bows and arrows or a knife.

Once they start rewriting the history books to be politicly correct, (to forget) we all run the risk of history repeating itself.

What a krock. I have known quite a few students who have been suspended. Did a suspension turn any of their lives around? (switch them from bad kids to good kids?) No, not a one. It is up to parents to raise their children and teach them how to act. School is for readin', rightin', and rithmatick.

But hey I understand. Now that the governments tax nearly half our income by the time you add it all up, many families have two working parents and no one to stay home to raise their children. So that has increasingly become the governments job to do it! Single parents are at all time highs too. But we all got our Uncle Sam to teach us and take care of us
