    Going to Plymouth-Canton Schools?

    Don't forget to turn your watches back 600 years.  File this one under "All Hail Diversity".

    The decision by the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools reverses a ban put in place in December after a fourth-grader at a Canton Township elementary school was found with a dull, 3- to 5-inch kirpan.

    FOX 2's Robin Schwartz reports the kirpan represents a commitment to fight evil . After males are baptized, members of the faith, which originated in South Asia in the 15th century, are expected to carry the symbol all the time.

    Isn't multiculturalism just grand?  Now, I would like the Plymouth-Canton School District and the parents of all their little Harvir's explain to the rest of this state exactly how they are getting to school with their daggers.

    750.227 Concealed weapons; carrying; penalty.
    Sec. 227.

    (1) A person shall not carry a dagger, dirk, stiletto, a double-edged nonfolding stabbing instrument of any length, or any other dangerous weapon, except a hunting knife adapted and carried as such, concealed on or about his or her person, or whether concealed or otherwise in any vehicle operated or occupied by the person, except in his or her dwelling house, place of business or on other land possessed by the person.

    (2) A person shall not carry a pistol concealed on or about his or her person, or, whether concealed or otherwise, in a vehicle operated or occupied by the person, except in his or her dwelling house, place of business, or on other land possessed by the person, without a license to carry the pistol as provided by law and if licensed, shall not carry the pistol in a place or manner inconsistent with any restrictions upon such license.

    (3) A person who violates this section is guilty of a felony, punishable by imprisonment for not more than 5 years, or by a fine of not more than $2,500.00.

    I guess a school bus is off the list.

    ...when I walk into a public school any longer.

    Sorry, CS, but I gotta disagree with you on this one.

    I remember running around with my cap guns and toy M-16 as a kid in grade school.

    My friends and I ran around playing cowboys and indians/cops & robbers/or just plain war during recess & lunch shooting at everyone in sight. We made a ton of racket, but no one actually got hurt. When the bell ran, we grabbed our stuff and went back inside and put them in our lockers/desks before class started.

    Jr. High I regularly carried a small camping knife with a small blade, screwdriver, can/bottle opener and leather punch. It had the dullest blade, but the screwdriver came in handy prying open my locker door that they would never want to fix. No one ever got hurt then either.

    High school, I was fixing cars in auto shop (and doing a pretty good job of it), that I was making McDonald's money before I even got my driver's license. No Death Race 2000/Carmageddon to speak of.

    Fast-foward to today and see just how risk-averse & hoplophobic the educational establishment has become.

    Weapons?

    We don't want weapons.

    Not any kind of weapons!

    Even to the most ridiculous extreme!

    Wussifing the students is not the answer here.

    If the Sikh's want to bring it with them, just make it clear that it's not to be removed.

    If anyone removes it from their sheath, then ban them from campus on an individual basis.

    district after 19 years. Mrs. still drives school bus for the district. The board is the tool of the education aristocrats as are many public school boards in Michigan. As an aside, I believe that a law should be passed making it against the law for any candidate to accept any funding or endorsements from education unions, "educators", their relatives.

    About a year ago, PC Schools proudly announced that it was introducing an afro-centric history curriculum which all students would be required to attend. It would cover the history of africanhyphenamericans from 1890 to present. As many people know, that period includes events such as FDR beginning to pull africanhyphenamericans unto the liberal plantation via handouts, the further destructive great society, and the rise of racist africanhyphenamerican activism among other things. PC schools also announced an initiative to recruit more africanhyphenamericans as school administrators and teachers. They did not specify that they be well qualified.

    It is no surprise that PC schools back pedaled from the decision on the kirpan since Sikhs are a minority in this country and thus to be pandered to. Perhaps they will approve little Akbar wearing his bomb vest to school to demonstrate their political correctness.

    What a blast today was.  Been outside playing with the Deere til now moving around about 14 inches of GoreBull Warming and what a hoot.  Ah, I love the smell of diesel in the night... it smell's like, man toys.

    Anywho, KG One, I really don't agree with what you are suggesting as justification to countering a government education systems emasculation of boys and disarmament conditioning agenda.  Two wrongs seldom make for a right.

    Sihk boy with a concealed weapon = Good
    All other students with a concealed weapon = Bad

    That my friend, is bullsh!t.  Either we are equal under law or let's scrap the law all together.  Either is fine with me.  However, this endless game of waivers, this particular time, concealed carry of a dagger for allegedly appeasing someones invisible friend because Guru Gobind says so some 500 odd years ago in Punjab does not make for little Apu being the exception.  What's gonna be the next "religious" or "culture" waiver?  Is it Islam?  Yannow, a 53-year-old Muhammad married Aisha when she was 6 and at the ripe old age of 9 the prophet was banging his child bride like a storm-door in a hurricane.  Waiver?  Anyone?  Hello?  Honestly, it really wouldn't surprise me as the demographics in America change.

    Now, for the commie anti-weapon message crap going on in Michigan's schools?  I'm right there with you, it is enough.  On the state level look at who has been running the MEA show for the past decade and btw, elected president again.  A Brookings Institute parasite from LibTarded U of M Ann Arbor, and on the federal level there's Mr. Fisty calling the educational Czar shots.  It's a regular one-two wussification combo punch.  Why today's parents are putting up with it is beyond my comprehension.  Perhaps it's just them not knowing any different.  Think about it, in a few short years from now, new parents are the products of assclowns like John C. Austin who's been contaminating the educational pool with his progressive bullsh!t in this state since 2000.  Fuggin' frightening.

    As for nostalgia, back when I was in grade school did I really care about someone with a knife in school?  Hell no.  But, that's a different time from now and things have changed dramatically.  Look, I grew up on a horse farm out in the sticks of Green Oaks Twp. and everyone had a Tennessee Toothpick on them.  I also had my first gun when I turned 8 along with my very own tractor, a Farmall A that my pops and I picked out at an auction in Archbold, Ohio.  On top of that, I was operating a dragline along with my dad 'cause he decided the house overlooking a 3.5 acre pond would be special.  Bottom line, I had a very different upbringing than most children that were my peers and my true contemporary's even at that age were folks in their late 30's and older.

    Now, fast-forward to today's children growing up with many in single parent households and babysat on Xbox 360's and Wii's?  My upbringing or most upbrinings of 40+ years ago is of no comparison whatsoever.  What Mom didn't catch, dad did and frankly because of all the adult world surroundings of responsibility and consequences for ones actions at such a young age I prolly had solid a leg up in the world.

    Most kids today don't even have the luxury of being raised in a household with both parents.  To me that is tragic.  It will have unintended consequences.

    In today's Plymouth-Canton it's little Harvir running around school with his dagger to ward off evil 'spirits'.

    Down the road when en masse, when all the Harvir's reach adulthood... SWORD FIGHT.

    It's like the 30-35% muslim in Dearborn are with 'Free speech'.

    Colonizers.  All of them.
