A Virginia school board has voted unanimously to revise their zero tolerance policy in connection to guns after two boys were suspended for “using pencils like guns”.
Under the revised policy, school administrators can look at factors such as intentions of harm and whether the object is listed as a weapon to determine the punishment. Ordinary objects will not be considered weapons.
Well, duh. Sounds like common sense, doesn’t it?
Readers!
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your support allows me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.
In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.

It’s funny isn’t it, but when a “gun free zone” is instituted in a school it is never enough is it? Naturally, emementary school children don’t by nature bring actual guns to school so the administration, by instituting a zero tolerance measure on top of its gun free zone, effectively creates a prohibition on the childrens’ thoughts and actions. Hence, t-shirts with the sillohette of a gun, the half eaten sandwich in the shape of a gun or even a pencil become as intollerable (zero tolerance) as the gun itself. This is not by accident…it is by design.
These increasingly more frequent instances are wicked and evil, and by their very nature limits the individuas willingness to even protest the ridiculousnessof it all without becoming “suspect”, “irrational” and possibly a bitter clinging tea party/NRA member.
Folks…this is how tyranny takes hold as it has in past places like Stalinist Russian in the 30’s, Nazi Germany in the 40’s and Moa’s China in the 50’s.
It can happen hear, and I contend it is already here.
Wake up….America!
It is all about fighting the “gun culture.” Kids may not get suspended at that school but they will probably get some sort of lecture on the evils of guns.
Have we addressed the concept of the half eaten gun in the shape of a sandwich?
This is alright be their way of thinking. Eating a gun is good as the gun is destroyed but eating a sandwich shaped like a gun will get you suspended.
Yes, this is state sanctioned mind control, the politically correct crowd is trying to eliminate the thought of guns for any use in society, they started with climate change and water conservation and have been almost successful, look at how many idiot’s believe in global warming even with very good evidence that there is no warming in last 17 years, much of this mind control starts in school!
