>A discussion among students at Oberlin High School in Oberlin, La., about a mathematical symbol led to a police investigation and a search of one of the student’s homes, according to the Allen Parish Sheriff’s Office.
>On the afternoon of Feb. 20, detectives investigated a report of terroristic threats at the school, where they learned that a student had been completing a math problem that required drawing the square-root sign.
>Students in the group began commenting that the symbol, which represents a number that when multiplied by itself equals another number, looked like a gun.
>Police searched the student’s home, where they found no guns or any evidence that he had any access to guns. Authorities also wrote there was no evidence the student had any intent to commit harm.

>“The student used extremely poor judgment in making the comment, but in light of the actual circumstances, there was clearly no evidence to support criminal charges,” the department wrote, adding that the school board had been contacted to determine any disciplinary action for the student.
Hm, they haven't said what the comment was. Skeptical about this. Bet you any money the reason the police were called was less to do with the square root sign and more to do with what the student said.

Did any of you fucking idiots actually read the article?
>Students in the group began commenting that the symbol, which represents a number that when multiplied by itself equals another number, looked like a gun.
>After several students made comments along those lines, another student said something the sheriff’s office said could have sounded like a threat out of context.
The article never actually says what the student who was investigated said. They only mention that it "sounded like a threat out of context" and that it was in response to the other students mentioning that it looked like a gun.

"The Americans are the living refutation of the Cartesian axiom, "I think, therefore I am": Americans do not think, yet they are. The American 'mind', puerile and primitive, lacks characteristic form and is therefore open to every kind of standardization."

At least they are cultured.

American public education did a relatively good job with me. If others are failing, I think parenting must be the cause. or genetics, but we're in denial about that so...

Is there any logical reason why you would fucking say that post is underrated? Has anybody expressed any kind of dissatisfaction or criticism at all against it? Are you delusional? Are you reading replies that are nonexistant? Maybe you come from communities with voting systems, but there is literally no way that you could know what other people think of that post you just replied to here. Maybe it's psychological. Maybe it's your own post you're replying to, like a 12 year old fucktard liking his own facebook posts thinking his swelling autism is going unnoticed. Maybe your self esteem depends on you tricking yourself into thinking someone out there thinks your post is worth something. Or maybe you are just a retard, the worst kind of retard, the one who thinks he's smart, the one who thinks he's the only one to have gotten the joke, to have understood the post. Well, guess what, faggot, that post is by no definition underrated so why don't you do the world a favour and go check out what the bottom of your toilet smells like?

>searched the student's home On what basis? They got a warrant (if even that) to search his home because of a mathematical square root symbol? Shouldn't be surprised I guess. If they can get a warrant to make an underage boy pull down his pants and underwear so they can take pictures on their cell phones. There's no measuring for legitimacy. They are allowed warrants for whatever that please.

I bet at this point you could just call and say “gun” and they’d shut it down. Or email a school with a hand making the gun gesture with the same effects.
But don’t do this. It’s just a thought experiment.
