Suspension of SC autistic student who drew bomb lifted
Found on Fox Carolina on Thursday, 17 October 2013
Parham said it all started when her son had made the hand-drawn picture of the bomb during the weekend at home. Parham said Rhett is a fan of the video game Bomber Man and drew the cartoon-ish like explosive.
"They actually reiterated to me they knew he was non-violent," said Parham said on Monday. "They knew he was not actually having a bomb, creating or making a bomb. But that they could not go with out making an example of him and take some type of action because they were worried about their perception. Perception is actually the word he used. Perception is reality, and parents might think you have a bomb or [might be] violent."
Making an example. Because of a drawn picture of a Bomberman bomb. Who knows what might have happened if pupils there play Battleship. The school sure delivered a clear message: that they are retarded.
