BB-gun in the picture equals fight with school district.
GC’s post about jacking off, dick size and his dick in a photo.
Bringing a dick to a bb gun match is a very unsafe way to start a cock fight. :eng101:
Perhaps the real cause for concern here is that a grown man as no recourse but to pose with toy guns because his nanny-state wont let him have the real thing.
The first time a fired a gun was at my highschool’s range. Times have changed.
Man, I used to shoot river turtles with a freaking AK when I was 15. And my dad beat the living shit out of me when he found out. Oh well.
You also used to shoot communist babies, but that’s another thread. 
Kat, this isn’t a gun cuntroll thread, STFU
You of all people shouldnt stick your nose in the trolling of others.
I’m not trying to be silly, but can they prove that it wasn’t non-alcohol beer?
I’m a teacher myself, and I have been trained in the idea that students put more interest in the lessons if you let them get to know you. Of course, within a limit. I have mentioned my interest in martial arts and in RPGs, so I found this reading very interesting.
13 year old girls who haven’t even developed pubes yet give blowjobs to boys of the same age (or slightly older) on the back of school buses, while en route to school (and I’m not making this up.)
12-graders who don’t know how to solve x = 2 - ( -3) or what’s the differences between simple and a complex sentences are allowed to get a HS diploma on a regular basis simply because they don’t want these kids to be traumatized by seeing their grade partners graduate without them.
And let’s not start with the hazings that occur at frat houses at colleges and university, where people should be working towards earning an education rather than getting wasted while spilling the resources (money, classroom, facilities, student loans and grants) most often than not provided by taxpayers.
I think society in general, and school faculty/admin in particular has far more pressing problems than spending time, money and emotions in stopping an adult from graduating from a university (and thus ruining not just her career but her reputation) because she held a beer bottle in a picture taken a halloween party, just like any adult would would at the same or similar social event (including those who are now refusing her graduation he so rightly earned.)
I’ve found that kids don’t give a damn if you spent the weekend rolling or sparring. Mention a gun and you have their full attention. Why?
Because it’s not forbidden to play Judo.
I am, of course, “The Armed Schoolteacher,” but everyone at my school knows what my hobbies are. I don’t think it’s going to cause me a problem, but I don’t live in England. I’m picturing the “head teacher” ringing up the police department to tell them that a teacher was in a picture with a gun. What would they do about it besides roll their eyes?
It’s probably actually LESS of a problem for you because you’re open about it - you can’t ever get “outed” for something you don’t hide.
Me too.
Good question. Someone should call them at 0845 606 60 24 7 or email them at firearmslicensing@northyorkshire.pnn.police.uk and ask them what they would say if this guy
called them and said “One o’ me teachers posed wif a gun for a picture, then!” or somesuch…
It would probably be a good idea to write him at [B][SIZE=1]stwilliamsr@malton.n-yorks.sch.uk[/SIZE][/B] afterwards to let him know what they said…
ha ha
I’m more concerned by the guy’s lack of basic common sense.
That must be it. After all the majority of the school massacres are in urban centers. Hell, Columbine is a fucking metropolis.
More PC crap. We are creating a society that is intolerant and ignorant by not allowing any variation from the norm, all in the name of not offending any one. Was the teacher smart by posting this, probably not, was it a criminal act, no.
Get over it.
Hell, the school in Baltimore that I worked at last year monitored all teacher pages and message boards that they could find. The rule was, if you did ANYTHING outside of school that you couldn’t do IN SCHOOL then you could be let go if the administration didn’t like you or a child complained. They’d keep these on file and bring them up later at meetings with people. “Well, Susie says that you’re the one who lost her homework. Oh, and we saw that you’ve posted new pics of your girlfriend on your Facebook.”
I had a naughty cuss word on my MySpace (that a kid only found out about after going through my desk and found the address) and was told that I’d have to delete everything I had ever written online that might have a bad word on it since the kids could find it. Keep in mind, this is by using pseudonames, as my real name doesn’t appear here or on my MySpace.
So, fuck that place. Think of the children! Anyway, I spoke with a teacher there yesterday and he told me that finding crack pipes is now en vogue, and that the new pastime is for 100 or so kids to call out for stampedes in the hallway and run throughout the school en masse. Of course, the administration won’t do anything about either, because you wouldn’t want those kids to feel bad or anything. For fuck’s sake, goddamn!
Any administration worth their salt would have told those complaining parents to relax (or smoke some weed), talk with their kid (i.e. beat the shit out of them for being complaining pussies), and realize that the teacher hadn’t done anything wrong (shut the fuck up).

It’s amazing to me that we flip out about anything resembling real violence and yet feed our kids a constant stream of cartoony consequence-free bombastic cock-worship (Football, Batman, and all the other things that make life awesome). It seems really stupid to me to glorify violence in our children’s culture and then shield them from anything resembling it in real life (suspending kids who point their fingers and go bang! bang! Expelling kids who bring waterguns to school on a hot day etc.). Talk about the appeal of the forbidden.
That’s how ninjers happen. They think violence is super cool but they don’t have enough experience to respect what it really involves. If we didn’t protect our kids so much they would probably grow up to respect more how much getting hurt really hurts. But the parents aren’t really trying to protect their kids from a teacher who might hurt them. They’re trying to prevent their kids feeling fear or aggression or any of those adult emotions that, once in a blue moon, can keep you alive on teh d34dly str33t.
It’s the kids I feel sorry for. Oh well.
:nobodycar
It is compared to where I live.
Besides smart ass, I believe I stated “Maybe. IMO.”
I thought he was trying to be Christian Bale in “Equilibrium”.
It’s not that big of a deal unless, and I hadn’t seen it mentioned in the story or any posts:
Did he have to sign some form of contract that had a “morals and values” clause including the loosely interpreatable “community standards” rule?
