Schoolgirl Jolted With 3-Day Suspension For Giving Away a Piece of Gum
We still haven't heard it all when it comes to the hysterical totalitarianism imposed on kids by educrats. A middle school student in Lower Burrell, Pennsylvania has been suspended for three days for giving a piece of Jolt Gum to another student, on the grounds that it contains caffeine.
Two pieces of Jolt are supposedly equivalent to a cup of coffee in terms of caffeine, which is now regarded as poisonous by some moonbats because it allegedly depletes calcium, affects heart rate, causes depression, etc. etc. ad nauseam.
The school's open-minded commissars say it's okay to possess the gum, you just can't give it to others, which apparently makes you a dealer.

We elect the School Boards and allow them to act as mini-Prison Commissions and Gulag Guards. If we don't like what the Teachers or Administrators are doing, and the School Board still thinks it's just peachy, then we need to throw them out of office.
What they do in our name is our responsibilty.

If this happened in a prison, however, the inmates could sue and probably win.

Well, thent he teachers should not be allowed coffee during school hours than either. They need to follow the same standards. What a much of crap. A kid is in trouble for a piece of gum? What next? The wrong tampon.?

This is all a misunderstanding. Actually, the girl wasn't suspended, they're just waiting for her to come down from the powerful effects of the narcotics.
As for Ms. Lyday's comments regarding tampons, I strongly discourage our nation's youth from chewing them.

Just another reason to "just say no" when another kid asks for a sip of your soda. Or a potato chip. Wouldn't want to be caught peddling high-fat, starchy foods...
