Well, that’s fair…although I didn’t get the sense that many people here, if any, were upset at anyone but the high school for missing the point and blaming the victim.

But I still think Tyler should’ve drawn a picture of a gun so he could protect himself and his dog when they’re at school.

Done. Nasty, demeaning e-mail sent to ISD 742.

PETA was too busy defaming symbols of Christianity to comment.

I know I wouldn’t take to kindly to anyone threatening my dog, for any reason.

Erm. But you’re an ignorant southern redneck who clings to his guns and his Bible.

Which reminds me of a story:

I was in Auburn, after an Auburn-Georgia game, (obviously) tail-gating. Auburn had lost (typical, the home team is always losing in that series), and I was, to put it mildly, not happy about it. A guy there had his bulldog with him, and I made a joke about how we ought to string the dog up. Guy got all upset, including profanities with raised voice, wanting to fight me.

And he was an AUBURN fan.

Do not mess with a southerner and his ~~child~~ dog.

Ed, with all due respect, my sense is that no one in the whole educational establishment is going to accept responsibility for anything. So it becomes kinda academic who is blamed. Do I sound angry and frustrated? Yes I do.

It’s still a very retarded response. Expel the person making the threats. Simple, no?

Conflict resolution through capitulation. I wonder how the administration of Technical High School and ISD 742 votes.

Seriously though, how far would this type of thing go? If a woman wearing a min-skirt was threatened, would she be asked to leave the school? Or a homosexual? Or is it ok because it was just a dog that was threatened? I know I wouldn’t take to kindly to anyone threatening my dog, for any reason.
