Student Suspended For Halo 3 Drawings

How’s this for political correctness gone mad? Apparently drawings of Halo 3 are a terrorist threat – anyone see that coming? According to games site NFG, a 14-year-old boy was suspended from his school in Pittston, Pennsylvania for sketching images of Halo in a notebook.

The student from Wyoming Valley West Middle School was immediately suspended and the school called the police after the notebook was found containing ‘crudely drawn’ sketches of an assault rifle, a bomb and a map.

What do you make of all this? Were the school right to suspend the student?

    I believe they had no right to suspend that kid video games are basicly interactive movies if you will if someone draws a picture of tom cruise will he get suspended for that ?

    This sounds like the typical terrorist. Yesterday I was playing some guys on Construct and they had accents. Through their muffled words all I could understand was that they liked drawing, but they lacked drawing skills. Terrorists if I ever heard them, I bet he was one of them. Accents = terrorists, I bet this kid has an accent. His story and their story have too many similarities for me to write it off as a coincidence.

    At first I thought this news was another one of those crazy stories you hear, but when I read the assault rifle, bomb and map bit, I don’t blame them for it.

    Wow. That school is crapped up. They’re just drawings of guns, I drew some in school as well but they don’t care. They were not right, at all. They must live under a rock or something, not knowing about the world’s hugest video game.

    I can not believe this. What the hell! I’ve drawn many pictures of halo 1,2,and3 specially drawing master chief was my best. But, that school unestly did not have the right to suspend him for mis conseption of thinking that he was planning to do something to the school when that isn’t even true. What I think is that the school is afraid of us kids. I really do! If you want to post comments on my website its on http://www.freewebs.com/plopman123 and click on my profile. Thanks for reading PLOPMAN123.
