scenario...your views?

How would you react to this scenario?

 

Driving along a road you see a young boy in school uniform on his way to school waving a gun and knife at passing traffic.

 

Would you ignore him or take steps to ensure the gun and knife are 'toys' and not the real deal?

Millions of kids around Australia play with toy guns everyday......pulling triggers.

 

This boy unfortunately,  has been victimised by someone against toy guns.

He hasn't really been victimized. The school did nothing about it.

in your opinion. at a school in this region a boy took dads gun to school this year, and it was only luck and some good intelligence that averted a potential disaster.  i think ts actions are to be praised.  i like the idea of people actually doing something when it might prove helpful.

Did you have to carry a gun to pot some rabbits to save your family from starving too, willrobinson?

Ok....so siggie lives here, it's her son and she knows what goes on at that school. Well, clears it all up then doesn't it. No more to be said.

How has he been victimized, siggie? Not wanting to argue, I just can't see it.

I'm sure they will be just fine.   Educating them about appropriate behaviour will not hurt then one little bit.   He could have been kicking a soccer ball that could have ended up on the road causing an accident.    The precious little angel should be able to limit the knife and gun waving to family gatherings, like a wedding or a birthday party without causing him too much inconvenience Smiley Happy
