This stuff makes the debate over certain weapons being used seem frivoluos. No matter what you hunt with it all goes bye-bye if dipshittz like this have any say.

In elementary school kids were sent to the principal for pointing their fingers at each other and saying "bang"
The teachers called in my parents(who both work) when I was in preschool because I drew a turkey with an arrow in it and a deer with crosshairs over it's heart,  when they asked how I could draw such things I said" with crayons" hunting season was coming up and I was pumped up... But teachers tried to discourage me at every turn

Will not belabor any of the already well expressed opinions and have to agree with
JW  we are really close to the line here on political discourse.

However I truly feel that if something major doesn't happen to refocus our country,
if it even exists, anarchy will be inevitable. Major companies run the world not
governments, sad but true. But for people like us, not only armed but willing," freedoms ,"
 rights as we know them,will be as gone as our heritage of hunter gatherers. When children are
vilified over personal choices that the controllers dislike , we are in trouble. Or maybe THEY are.

lol that's too funny. I never had problems like that in elementary school. My teachers thought my bows and arrows were cool and they let me bring in an arrow that had a field point on it with no problems.

The meeting got resceduled to Monday morning. This school isn't a country school but in town, and a different mindset then the suburban schools. I'm hoping he meant families hunting together was not common in this school. My grandson said he didn't make a really big deal out of it, and we wouldn't have known about it if my Grandson hadn't of said anything.

 So I'm giving him the benifit of doubt to start with, especially since my best friend told me yesterday that the guy is a distance cousin of his.

And this wasn't started to get into political debates, we can all work on that in November. I was just venting. I can't stand someone in authority making a stupid statement like it was a fact.

In our current P.C. culture I thought that there were stiff criminal penalties for using the word "normal"!

I say we tie this guy to a chair and make him watch some of Billy Berger's videos!  I'd rather be a Billy Berger than a "normal"...whatever normal is.

I understand fully why you are upset........that kind of reaction and conversation from the principal is absurd.  But in this day and age there is zero tolerance for anything.  I do not know what we are going to do.  I have two boys, six and three.  I worry very deeply about the future.

Ask him if he supports the concept of academic freedom as foundation for building  lifelong learners or does he prefer the sublimation and condemnation of  views foreign to his current  and popular  dogma as a compass for his educational institution

Mullet,
That is frustrating.  I hunted WITH some of my teachers in Jr. High and High School.  We hauled pelts into school for one teacher who was making a fur jacket.
I don't know what kind of access you have to this educator but maybe a handshake, a smile, and some discussion over coffee about the positive aspects of what you do with your grandson.  Maybe some enlightening information about the damage that hogs do, or the historical significance of archery, about the craftsmanship that you are demonstrating to your grandson, about the benefits of teaching a grandson to be manly. 
It may not help, but flies come to sugar rather than vinegar.
And do what Cip said as you proceed.
Cheerio!
