The only thing I'll comment on: that's not what 911 is for. You're a school. You handle your own internal problems unless police are truly needed.

School just passes the buck...they should be ashamed...

Re: News that make you say WTF?

I'm just curious what the boy said. Unless it was "I'm going to kill me some of them brownies" or something along those lines, I don't see any reason to call the cops. Even that is probably too much but, if someone legitimately felt threatened, I understand.

I can't imagine anything else that a 3rd-grader would say about chocolate-flavored baked goods that could be considered racist.

Man, I'm not calling the cops or ambulance unless it's serious....like I better be bleeding for the paramedics or else I'm driving myself to the hospital lol

I don't really feel that should have required police at all....911 is for emergencies. In this case a principal could have given them detention or something, written them up.

Insurance reasons. School can't be blamed if they report everything to the police. Then it becomes the police's problem if the kid then does something. It's passing the buck so someone else has to take responsibility. Hopefully they aren't calling 911 and are using the local station phone #.

So for all those decades it's been some school personnel thinking they can raise your child better than you can. Now it's the cops.

Sweet.

A few nights ago I had a lady who wanted me to just take her 10 yr old son because he was misbehaving. It's pathetic.

19 yr old great grandson tried to beat his 86 yr old great grandmother to death. Apparently he has mental issues.

MEHOOPANY, Pa. (AP) — Police say a woman sprayed gasoline on a driver who criticized her for smoking a cigarette while pumping fuel at a Pennsylvania convenience store.

Fifty-one-year-old Kimberly Brinton, of Meshoppen, faces a preliminary hearing July 12 on aggravated assault and other charges stemming from the encounter Thursday at the Mehoopany Dandy Mart, about 30 miles northwest of Scranton.

Public schools rarely carry insurance as a government entity.

Whether they are paying for it or not, they are doing it so the school system can say we did everything we could, we called the cops. It's their problem.
