I'm a junior in high school. 3.9 GPA, sports, honor roll, etc, etc. Basically, a pretty cool kid. So, my school has an all-encompassing no weapons rule. But, the rule doesn't specifically state what the school considers a weapon. Of course, I'm not going to go wearing a plate carrier with a BK9 strapped to my pack, but within reason I'd like to be able to depend on myself. The Micra is perfect for a keyring, and it's what I use at school. Or, at least use to use. I was in class, and had to cut a thread on my jeans that wasn't coming out. The teacher (we'll call her Ms. Sheeple who's watched too much Dateline) was walking by. She saw this, and immediately gasped in horror. She grabbed my keyring out of my hand, called the resource officer, all the while saying that I was going to stab my fellow classmates and making a huge scene. Because Ms. Sheeple is incredibly tactful and knows how to manage herself when stressed. Ultimately, I was escorted home by the officer, lost my keys, and was suspended for a week. It kinda sucked. A lot. All of my peers strongly disagreed with the decision, and made their voices heard. in retaliation, the school is barely allowing safety scissors in the classrooms. I'm not nearly as old as a lot of you guys here, but I strongly believe that this is a big issue with how kids are being raised nowadays. Sounds odd, coming from someone who is still a kid himself. All of the teachers except for a small handful supported the decision to make the campus "safer" but not allowing any knives, tools, or pointed objects whatsoever. This is just wrong. I want to know what you guys think of this. Thanks!
Also, it all worked out in the end. I just transferred to a much nicer technical school, and three out of the five schooldays, we do our schooling downtown. I openly carry my Leatherman Surge, Blacked out Manix 2 XL, and a shiny, brand new Micra on my keys.
Still, it was an ordeal that I don't want to go through again. What do you guys think?
