We're the Only Ones Sending Our Kids Off to School Packed Enough

Administrators at a Catholic school in Marrero had some tense moments Thursday morning after a student accidentally brought a police officer's service revolver to school.

Chief Deputy Newell Normand of the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office said that a 5-year-old student at Immaculate Conception Elementary School had a .40-caliber handgun in a small bookbag.
Naturally, the Chief "Only One" won't disclose the mother's identity, nor does he "plan to make any arrests."

Any bets We the People would be afforded such courtesy?

This story nicely supplements two of today's earlier posts. First we have the Chicom corrections officer tragedy, and then we have the admittedly ignorant columnist proving just because you have a forum to express yourself, it doesn't mean you know what you're writing about.

Someone needs to ask reporter Allen Powell II about those standard issue .40 caliber "service revolvers."

  2. I did not know that the .40 had become that popular. Will check the Ruger and Glock and S&W sites among others to pin down the new revolver I've to date heard nothing of, so thanks for the heads up.
