this says it all...“I understand she was doing her job but at some point doesn’t common sense prevail?"

There is no common sense anymore.

Over the years, have had several sock monkeys ... none with guns though.

My sock monkeys are trained in lethal unarmed combat so they always get through the check-points ...

Too bad these loser can't do their real job and keep psychos with rifles out of the airport who do want to kill...oh, that's right, they're not allowed to carry guns themselves, silly me. These fools have no common sense, what is this world coming to?!! Young kids are being suspended from school for making their hand into the shape of a gun and saying bang. I heard that some nosy neighbor reported two young boys playing in their front yard with a toy air rifle. One boy was shooting at the tree. The cops came and took the boy in, not sure how that story ended.

Yesterday I read a story of a little girl that was suspended from school for making the motion of pointing and pulling the string of an imaginary bow and arrow...How have things gotten this ridiculous?

OH, that's exactly what I thought when I read the story. Common sense is a rare concept these days.

I'm pretty sure kids are flipping their middle fingers at the teachers every day, but I don't see THEM being dragged to jail ...
