This Week in Stupid: 8 Year Old Sent Home for Drawing Cross
Amazing. Just amazing.
An 8-year-old boy was sent home from school and ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation after he was asked to make a Christmas drawing and came up with what appeared to be a stick figure of Jesus on a cross, the child’s father said Tuesday.
Chester Johnson told WBZ-TV that his son made the drawing on Dec. 2 after his second-grade teacher asked children to sketch something that reminded them of the holiday.”

This story is actually in doubt.
The school says they pulled the kid out of class and sent him to a therapist because he said HE was the one nailed to a cross, and that the drawing isn’t the one he made in class.
Now the parent, who refuses to meet with the school on advice from his lawyer, says, “They don’t know who they fucked with. They made a mistake and now Jesus is going to make them pay for it.”

Wow. Interesting. So, there’s still stupid, but it’s a different stupid. Excellent.

Well that definitely turns a different flavor of strange if what Nicole said is the real story.
