Wow, Yankee, that is totally differenty from my high school--small town, 32 in my graduating class, and the biggest "weapon" deal we ever had was someone getting in trouble for having one in their truck during hunting season.



I just don't understand.  We all had a friend in high school that was quiet, kept to themselves, and was picked on a bit. Heck, I was that kid for a while.  But these 2 friends of that kid getting prosecuted for not reporting something is ridiculous.  Here's someone that you've known most of your life, as been quiet all this time, and makes a few comments and you are supposed to take them seriously enought to report that?  How is a kid supposed to discriminate between joking and seriousness?  Most trained psychologists couldn't tell!!



I just can't understand--and it really makes me want to look into homeschooling any children I may have...
