[quote="Sgt>Stackem":ea8fe]"Because the school district has a zero-tolerance policy against weapons and because the gun could have been taken to school, the boy who offered the trade has been suspended. He will remain on suspension pending a hearing that will be held within a week, Arensman said."

he did not take it to school, he should not be suspended. He should be in trouble for stealing the gun but not "because the gun could have been taken to school"
If I think about drinking and I think about driving should I be arrested for drunk driving?[/quote:ea8fe]

See that is a improper comparision, The drunk was never "in the car, while the "gun was in THE backpack, and the child WAS bringing it to school, WHILE that drunk, has no intention of driving and is not even in the car. The moment the gun and when the drunk even sits in his car = the act was going to be commited. The difference is the drunk hasnt started his criminal journey, while the boy has already begun.
