Bunch of garbage. How about suing the useless 6 year old and it’s family.

If I thought a kid had a gun, I'd be getting it from the backpack, not asking administrators. Id also be callingt the police.

Don’t sue the school, sue the entire GOP.

DOX THE CHILD

Everyone’s looking for a payday.

Oh, NOW people want the government to take away guns.

Teacher told the staff about the gun, nobody believed her. Hope they sue the crap out of the district and the parents of that child

Amazing this is being put on the school. The parents of this child should have done better. It’s the schools job to teach, not raise children. The gun came from home. It’s not the school’s job to police guns with first graders. And these lawsuits will only cost the taxpayers.

Litigation litigation everyone wants a rain fall of money

What's it going to take for schools to realize that they actually have to do the required job of keeping our children safe?

Letter: Why would allowing parents to choose appropriate education for their child destroy public school?I’ve never understood the logic behind denying parents a choice in their child’s education. Since the public schools are funded by public money — money that came from tax paying parents — why shouldn’t parents be able to use their money to fund an education that is appropriate for their child? And why would allowing parents to choose an appropriate education for their child destroy a public school? If the school is providing a good education, it will continue to flourish. If not, a child should not be forced to suffer the consequences. Who is doing that? There are public funded schools and private ones. Choose. Parents have always been free to choose how their children are educated, but why should the very public you want to exempt your kids from be forced to pay for it? Child-free tax payers don’t get any personal benefit- we pay for public benefit, not your personal choices. Thing is my children are long out of public school and my taxes are now going towards your choice rather then a community education, now you can use my tax dollars and put your child in a program I may not agree with(example: a religious academy) why should I pay for that?
