Zero tolerance has crossed over into the realm of zero intelligence. Â The politically correct just keep getting more ridiculous.
A public school in Nebraska has banned a 3 year old boy, who is deaf, from using the handsign for his name because……….
the hand sign resembles a gun…
Yep, that’s right.  Little Hunter Spanjer’s parents have been informed their child’s name sign violates the school’s weapons policy.  The school board’s policy 8470 prohibits the students from possessing, handling or transmitting a âfirearm, weaponâ or anything that âlooks like a weapon.â
Therefore the signal, based on American Sign Language, is prohibited.  Hunter’s father stated, âItâs a symbol. It’s an actual sign, a registered sign, through SEE.â (Signing Exact English)
The Huffington Post quoted  Howard Rosenblum, the CEO of the National Association of the Deaf .âA name sign is the equivalent of a person’s name, and to prohibit a name sign is to prohibit a person’s name.”
Apparently this little boy’s name sign is such a threat to the school that it has been requested he change it.
His father has started a Facebook page to gather support for Hunter, so he can keep his name.
Have we become so hysterical about guns that the mere suggestion of a gun is enough to force a little boy to change his name? Could an item guaranteed as our right by the second amendment strike such fear into the hearts of the school authorities that they feel the need to disallow a child the use of his name?
Demonizing a hand gesture meant to represent someone’s name epitomizes the brainwashing of the public school system. Â They want our kids to grow up fearful of guns, to follow the most ridiculous rules without question and to disregard all aspects of critical thinking. This is how good little worker bees are manufactured.
In a country  full of park rangers and meteorologists ordering hollow point bullets, veterans being demonized and committed for thought crimes and the NYPD opening fire and injuring more people than the criminal, isn’t there a little bit more to worry about than the hand sign for a little boy’s name?
Just another example of the all seeing eye/big brother wanting conquer and control of the masses. “You will be assimilated, resistance is futile”. I hope the parents of Hunter realize this is not a place they should have their child learning at? It doesn’t take much to refute the tyranny claws, just a little going against the criminal corruption of those who think they know better than us, from each and everyone out there speaks volumes.
The thing it is only going to get worse!
My question is why is a 3 year old in school???. Lenin believed that if he got control of the youth of a country, indoctination would deliver that nation to his control in 1 generation.
Slightly off topic, but my middle son was expelled from 7th grade 5 years ago for drawing pictures of katana’s during art class, one of his teachers felt threatened by the art work, and sent him to the pricipals office where I had to attend a conference about violence prevention in order to reregistir him in skrewl, and they told me that a drawn sword is as bad as a real one in their blind vision of right. I cslled bullshit, and walked out durring the confrence, and took hin gunbrowsing after we dropped the mamma off at her job, she just wouldn’t understand that one.
I just can’t believe how completely retarted we have become as a society. Screw the school systems and start home schooling. All they teach is brainwashing anyway.
I am shocked that this is Nebraska…you would think the heartland would be more tolerant. The long arms of the NEA are at work here. How foolish that this little boy and his family have to go through this. God Bless You all
Maybe he should change the sign to this:
Fuck yea
Score!
What is the Facebook page? I clicked on the link but it didn’t come up. We need the name….
The link has been updated. http://www.facebook.com/huntersnamesign
It’s not just the stupid rule, it is the stupid people wanting to enforce such a stupid rule.
And a stupid dad who would even consider changing his sons name over something like that.
Just take the kid out of that “school”. Obviously no kid should learn what they are trying to teach.

I support the kid’s parents, but the sign for “Hunter” is “H” not “R” and its similar to the gun sign language.
See the Americans With Disabilities Act. Were I still practicing, I’d own that school district right quickly.
