We’re going down: Datapoint Baltimore, Maryland

by Tim Condon

From CBS Baltimore, Channel 13:

“Two six-year-old boys were suspended while playing cops and robbers during recess and using their fingers to make an imaginary gun.

“This is…

…the second time a Maryland child has been suspended for such play. Earlier this month, six-year-old Rodney Lynch was suspended from his Montgomery County school after pretending to fire an imaginary gun more than once.”

I’ve been political my entire life, starting out with Barry Goldwater and The Conscience of a Conservative in the1960's. In 1967 I enlisted in the U.S. Marines for four years, spending nearly two of them in South Vietnam. In 1972 I was a Florida presidential elector for Prof. John Hospers, the first Presidential candidate of the national Libertarian Party which was founded that same year. During the late 1970's and into the 1980's I was a contributing editor and monthly columnist for Reason magazine, and I’ve authored numerous articles in the print and online media about various subjects relating to individual rights and personal freedom. Today I'm a lawyer by profession; I divide my time between New Hampshire and Florida all year long, spending much of my time practicing law in Florida. As an early supporter and past member of the board of directors of the Free State Project, I was drawn to the Live Free or Die state of New Hampshire in late 2003 when it was chosen by a vote of the first 5,000 FSP participants. In 2004 I founded the Republican Liberty Caucus of New Hampshire, and continue today to work within the state political system to advance the traditional NH values of frugal small government, low taxes, small business, free enterprise, and self-responsibility. To all, I say "Come and see what we are building in the beautiful, healthy, livable Free State of New Hampshire!"

    THANK YOU THANK YOU TIM CONDON!!!! I emailed this story to Skip over a week ago asking if you guys would please do a story on it! This was the second story I’d emailed him in a week. The other one is a recent story involving guns, schools and Vermont. It’s worth checking out. But thanks for at least mentioning this reactionary, knee-jerk, idiotic move by a Maryland school.

    Homeschooling: The sane alternative

      For some – who have the time, money, energy, intelligence, breadth and depth of knowledge, support system, networking skills – yes! It’s a fine option. For anyone else – it’s not the best option.

        In a lot of the cases, either are the Government schools.

          Do you mean N-E-I-T-H-E-R? Can’t resist a “teachable moment!”

        Exactly, Danny Boy, which is why those without the means be enabled to have a choice in school selections like, you know, BozObama, the Kennedys (or it that Kennedies?), the Clintons, and virtually all other LimoLibs. Seems like the fair thing to do, you know, for diversity’s and choice’s sake.
