Show and tell crack and bong hits for Jesus
Well, I was reading the news at lunch…and could not help but post some of the headlines I caught. People are stupid and …well just read the little bit I posted below:Â
SHREVEPORT, La. — A 20-year-old Shreveport woman has been arrested after her first-grade son brought a rock of crack cocaine to school for show-and-tell.
Police were especially disturbed by the child’s understanding of crack cocaine. They said he seemed so accustomed to the highly addictive drug that he thought there was nothing wrong with bringing it to school.
Police did not release the name of the school, saying they are still investigating. Lachristie Thomas was booked on a charge of improper child supervision, a misdemeanor. Police say the six-year-old was placed in foster care.
WASHINGTON (AP) — A high school principal was acting reasonably and in accord with the school’s anti-drug mission when she suspended a student for displaying a “Bong Hits 4 Jesus” banner, her lawyer told the Supreme Court Monday.
“The message here is, in fact, critical,” the lawyer, former independent counsel Kenneth Starr, said during a lively argument about whether the principal violated the constitutional rights of the student.
On the other side, attorney Douglas Mertz of Juneau, Alaska, urged the justices to see the case as being about free speech, not drugs.
The dispute between Joseph Frederick, who in 2002 was a high school senior, and principal Deborah Morse has become an important test of the limits on the free speech rights of students.
Morse believed his “Bong Hits 4 Jesus” banner was a pro-drug message that schools should not tolerate. She suspended Frederick for 10 days. Frederick sued Morse, and that case now is before the court.
Frederick acknowledged he was trying to provoke a reaction from school administrators with whom he had feuded, but he denied that he was speaking out in favor of drugs or anything other than free speech. A bong is a water pipe that is used to smoke marijuana.
“I waited until the perfect moment to unveil it, as the TV cameras (following the torch relay) passed,” Frederick said.
