Y'know, I don't find that funny. At all. The idea that anyone thought that this was a threat is disgusting.

A more in-depth story

How awful for this family. How terrible for the other students. Did you catch this nugget?

A second student was also suspended Monday for a sketch on his homework. However, that student and his parents could not be reached for comment about the nature of that drawing.

I'm so sad and angry at the same time....and I'm worried about when my future kids hit school and I have to teach them about thoughtcrime, so they don't have dings on their record for simply doodling. What a disappointment our society is.
