Why are people so intollerant? Another dumb controversy at a Salem Oregon High School because a girl wanted post her brother's Marine picture on the class bulletin board for an assignment that was to show McKay High School graduates at work.

A picture of a Marine holding an assault rifle has sparked a wave of controversy at a Salem high school.

The problem began when the Marine's sister brought the picture to McKay High School to post on a classroom bulletin board....

However, the principal of the school, Cynthia Richardson, would not allow the picture to go up because of the school's zero tolerance policy on weapons....

All it takes is one look around the school to see that there may be a problem with that logic, considering that the school mascot is seen carrying a sword.

The left has lost all sense of reason. The school did offer to post the picture with the guns removed digitally, but the soldier and his family rightly say that is not enough.
