...should just be killed.
Or this, at the very least:
Not to hijack, but the same idiocy is displayed here:

Remember the grade-schooler who was suspended for pointing a chicken wing at a classmate and yelling, "Bang!' ?
What's the full story here?
However, suggesting that anyone should just be killed is stupid, particularly when you don't know what the true story is as well as the other factors that went into the resolution of the case.
In fact, if anyone should be blamed, it should be the President and his administration's failure to prepare for the aftermath of the war in Iraq.

You're hopeless. If you can't put yourself in the shoes of this young boy, you're pathetic.
What a stupid comment. Perhaps you missed "If the child thought he had permission to answer the call, and did so, he should certainly be given a break and appropriate procedures be put in place for this type of call in the future."
That is putting myself in the child's shoes.
What I am not willing to do is come to any conclusions because I don't have all the facts at hand, like whether or not the father made appropriate arrangements with the school, whether or not the kid was taking other calls in school, and why the school took the action it did.
If I were the teacher, as soon as I learned that he was on the phone with his father, I would have let him go. I would have tried to intervene to make sure that he could get calls from his father at school, and work on appropriate procedures for this kid and other kids so that the phone calls don't disturb class and that the students don't take advantage of the privilege of getting calls in school.
The only disagreements we seem to have are:
1) Whether or not we should jump to conclusions based on incomplete facts;2) Whether or not someone should be killed for trying to run a school the way he or she feels is most appropriate to educate students.

Irrelevant. Under not circumstances WHATSOEVER should this child have been reprimanded for receiving a phone call from his father serving his country.
Talk about stupid....inclusively.
With qualification. Sorry.
As if "killed" were a serious comment. Do try.
"...This morning we have an interesting story about a six-year-old boy whose permanent public school record says he committed "Sexual Touching Against Student, Offensive," when he smacked the bottom of a first-grade female classmate during recess. The whacker was taken to the principal's office and reprimanded. An incident report was written. The Prince William County (Va.) police were called..."
