"[HAMILTON, Mass] What he, and his parents, thought was a good-natured
stunt, the school deemed dangerous. Depaolis was suspended from school for
two days."

"The father tells FOX25 the school compared the stunt to bringing a “loaded firearm” to school "

I can't find the words to express what I feel about these idiots who run the school

Paul Revere would be so proud.

Loaded horses are quite dangerous. Pretty much everything that is useful is also dangerous.

The vice principal needs to retake high school English and brush up on analogies.

He should have flown a Mexican flag or the US flag upside down, then it would be OK! 1st Amendment ya' know!

Don't they have mounted police officer's in Massachusetts? I never knew I was in such danger at rodeo parades. BTW what's the effective range on a horse?

Look, the guy broke the rules. He should have kept it concealed.

I was actually thinking about that. I know there are breeders of miniature ponies. I had no idea of the true reason for their endeavors. Obviously he rode the magnum version. Even a shetland would have been less obvious.

Good thing it didn't just "go off"

My mom always wanted a bicycle; she had to ride her horse to school because they couldn't afford a bicycle, so other kids made fun of her..... It didn't get into the newspapers though.

Isn't this a form of bullying????????????????

I can see suspending him if did a Lady Godiva impression but this is silly.

I hope it didn't come with a pistol-grip.

So, would it be safe to assume that the only appropriate holster selection would be a Crossbread?

Of course, a Minataur is half-horse. . .

Edited to acknowledge that I didn't do very well in Greek Mythology - realized later that the half-horse creature is a Centaur.
The Minotaur is half-bull. Somehow, it still seems that there is some connection to this story there.

There's plenty of bull going around.

How about this one:

Brick, New Jersey (middle of nowhere): A FOUR-year-old boy was suspended from school because his hair was too long.

It was a foot long. I guess I can’t go to school now.

That's a horse of another color.
My dad's hair turned gray, mine just turned loose.

Kid should have cited Numbers chapter 6, and called the ACLU.

It's a private school. They can do what they want as long as they don't violate civil rights laws with respect to sex, citizenship, disability, etc.

I would have thought this hair garbage would have died out by 1970. What do they think hair is going to do?
