Some new knife stories

Postby dixieangler on Thu Oct 15, 2009 7:47 pm

Horror stories actually. Not any violence or cutting but still horror or maybe better words would be absurd and ridiculous. The need that many have to control others and their liberty and freedom knows no bounds. I doubt very seriously that either of these unfortunate young fellows posed any kind of threat to others but some people don't use their brains to figure that out. Links below.

I always have a knife even when I was in school but I obviously don't take it out (unless I needed it) or advertise the fact. School then was not like it is today. Law abiding students did not pose a threat to anyone and we did not have the student violence that exists today from kids that have little or no upbringing.

yea my school district went through the ban anything that looks like a weapon phase but they gave up quick. My high school was getting construction done and the workers use to leave utility knives and nail guns in the hallway. Kids were shooting nails into toilets with them lol. My brother got an in school suspension for supposedly tring to stab a kid with a plastic butter knife. When we asked him why he said they were playing "war" and they were shooting spitballs at each other and using plastic butter knives like bayonets. Kingoftheflock and I use to get detentions all the time for stupid crap. I drew two soldiers with guns once they were really detailed and good just because I was bored and drawing stuff. The school had a fit and gave me a dentention for it. My mom thought they were morons when they called her. They tore up those drawings and they were pretty good too. Funny thing is me and kingoftheflock sat in dentention drawing more soldiers lol.

I just got an alert from the NRA. Seems they are getting worried about more than just guns of late.

This bill is getting some serious attention.
OK, what's the other plan!

you mean that assisted opening knife bill? what a bunch of crap. yea that was stupid, my mom was pissed and my dad was laughing hysterically when the vice principal had to search my locker for a gun when a few air-soft BBs fell out of my pocket. i saw another one about a 6 year old girl with saftey scissors who got tasered by a security guard. what the hell is happening?


on a side note here is a link to a cool knife i found in a catalog its called the shadow ops knife, very cool has 4 different serrated edges on it.
