First off, the fact that you learned something form me is simply amazing and is Say What worthy.
I wasn't sure if you were being a wiseass, I figured you were.
My comment was really more about "why the heck are these people looking soo hard to find something that offends them" than your comment.
Secondly, I'm offended that you learning something from me is "an odd turn of events". Who can I report this offense to?

I'm hearing impaired. To sign my name is a simple gesture. Make a fist and raise one's middle finger. A lot of people seem to know my name.

I suggest the kid in the article change his name to Mike, like mine.

Agreed. Wonder what they do with anyone finger spelling that uses the letter G. Panic I guess. Think an H is worse since it's "double barreled"?

And being Nebraska, I'm not surprized by this.

whats the sign for "beating my head against the wall in frustration with the stupidity surrounding me?"

Isn't this a free speech violation? They are censoring the kids very name for crying out loud!

I don't know, is there a Council of Elders?

I bet my forum name is pretty cool in SEE.

I have a suggestion for a hand sign he could use. Just needs one finger.

Hmmm ... could this be an ADA issue?

We should find someone that knows SEE, and ask.

Since we're all figuring out ways to be offended here, why does the sign for "hunter" require three shots? No self-respecting hunter I know needs three shots to drop an animal. That said, I would say this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard, but that's like challenging fate by saying "It couldn't get any worse. . . "

It is indeed an ADA issue, the school is in the wrong......sue and collect dat paper....

Oh my God! He has a gun!

I still think that Stephen Fry quote is just him whining about whining.

I still think that your petulant whining about Stephen Fry whining about whining is no better.

I would +1 that.

My brother got dragged into the guidance office back around Columbine. Some girl overheard him talking about his 35mm.... CAMERA! (35mm would be a hell of a gun!!!)
