“And (the principal) was like, ‘OK, you're a threat to our school,’ and then she suspended me,” a 7th grade student told Channel 2’s Wendy Corona. “The student, who did not want to show her face, says one student’s Facebook post got about two-dozen classmates at Cowan Road Middle School in Griffin, GA suspended.

It is only in the world of school-year-ending Tweens where a Sunday post could escalate to: “Everything they say we can’t wear, wear,” and, “We need the hallways packed and out of control” with everyone participating. “ End of school-year-happy Tweens may have seen it as blowing off a little classroom steam, the system saw it as “Tea Party time”. Sadly, what will happen to the 7th graders will remain unknown. The school administration said they would not comment on disciplinary actions. Parents like Chistopher Cagle, the father of a suspended honor roll student, were not informed first or given the chance to disciple their own children. “To me it was just a bunch of 13-year-olds acting crazy,” Cagle said. “Cagle said the principal called the students’ actions terroristic threats. He said the principal was too swift and severe with the punishment. (WSBTV.com)“You should at least contact us first and let us know to be aware of this and that way we could’ve disciplined our own kid instead of y’all taking action against her,” Cagle said. “Now the suspended students will stand by for their date before a tribunal, which will decide if more disciplinary action will be taken.”Having their children home for the summer makes the perfect time for parents to teach them what real terrorists look like and how government propaganda works to eliminate the words ‘terrorist’ and ‘terrorism’ from public comment. Parents can start with two government-made videos, The Innocence of Muslims, by which a lying government blamed an obscure video to cover up the Benghazi scandal, and the recent video of the Taliban tradeoff for deserter Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl with the Taliban carrying a white flag on a stick denoting surrender mode. Truth and reality always trump government propaganda. It’s high time to show school children who the real terrorists are.
