professor at a college wanted her/his students to send "anti
war letters" to president Bush, and the students told her/him
to "take a hike". That teacher is now put on "administrative
leave", THE DIFFERENCE IS: these kids were college kids, yet
the military kids were/are 7 yrs old, and therefore can be
insulted by saying "they misunderstood 7 yr olds do that all
the time". I say I guess you ME teachers who "allegedly"
insulted the military kids, and not you nor the NG have yet
come out to set the record straight you can count yourself
lucky that these were not high school or college kids. When we
lived in NC a similar incident happened it was not a military
kids issue it was racial I believe. These high school kids
beat up several teachers, the principal came out and wanted to
break it up, and they threw him against the wall and beat him
so bad that he had to be hospitalized for 5 weeks. That
happened around 1980. I do NOT condone violence, but for you
who now make liars out of these 7 yr olds I guess you are
counting your blessings that these kids were not teenagers for
there would be no way that you could over up then.
