Sakir Everett, who is just 11 years old, sprang into action when he spotted another student with a firearm inside Dwight Rich School of the Arts in Lansing. But rather than flee, the seventh grader safely disarmed the weapon, removed the bullets, and dismantled it in an act of bravery that may have averted a mass shooting.
And was immediatly hailed a hero for doing so, right? No, Reader, sadly not:
However, Sakir was punished by the school for not immediately reporting the incident to staff.
The astonishing decision by the Lansing School District has sparked outrage from parents and community members, who say Sakir is being treated like a criminal instead of a hero.
'He took the gun from the armed student, disassembled it, and removed the bullets, preventing what could have been an unimaginable tragedy.'
But he didn’t comply with ‘school rules’ and for the progressive teachers, that’s worse than any other issue.
He used knowledge from his hunting background (Ed: probably a red flag to 'liberal' teavching staff) to safely disarm the weapon, separate the ammunition, and throw the bullets away. He believed he was doing the right thing. But instead of an award, Sakir was expelled.
Thus learning probably the mose useful lesson he's ever learned at this school; progressives are crazy and should be avoided.
'It's devastating because he's a bright kid and all he wants to do is be a kid,' said McClurkin, who has had to reduce her work hours to educate him at home after he was banned from all school platforms.
If I was you, Mrs McClurkin, I’d make that a permanent choice.
