Teen self-defense expert expelled, jailed, kicked out of Army program, all because of a pocketknife

An Ohio high school student training to be an EMT was charged with a felony and sent to jail for 13 days because police found a pocketknife during an unauthorized search of his car.
Jordan Wiser, an 18-year-old student at Ashtabula County Technical and Career Campus in Jefferson, Ohio, is an EMT trainee with a passion for self-defense and public service. He aspires to be a firefighter, and is a certified emergency vehicle operator. Wiser is comfortable with weapons, and posts Youtube videos of himself talking about law enforcement, self-defense and video games.
Apparently, school administrators caught wind of the videos, which led them to believe that Wiser was in possession of weapons, according to The Huffington Post.
Police searched Wiser’s car without his permission, discovering a pocketknife, stun gun and airsoft guns. Airsoft guns fire non-lethal, plastic pellets, and are used in sports games.
“I didn’t think anything of the Airsoft guns,” said Wiser in a statement. “Our school is a technical school, and I was planning on meeting with my Airsoft team after school. My stun gun was locked in the glove box, and the knife was in my EMT medical vest. I bought it at K-Mart and have it as part of my first responder kit for cutting seatbelts.”
The pocketknife violates the school district’s zero tolerance policy against bringing weapons onto school property — a class 5 felony.
For his crime, Wiser was carted off to jail for 13 days.
He is worried that a conviction will destroy his chance at a career in public service. Indeed, he has already been expelled from high school and technical school, and had his participation in the U.S. Army’s Future Soldiers program terminated.

Sometimes it is difficult to tell what is real and what came from The Onion.
Ohio is becoming one effed up poophole. This prosecutor Specht (I guess that is a fitting name to go with OC's "Seig Heil!" in the thread title, good call OC) should be assaulted by a righteously pissed off populace (same for these judges who are maniacally gunphobic!)...but the latter is probably too self-medicated and self-deluded or just plain too lazy to get up off their asses and turn off Amerikan Idle and do jack shyt...so this good kid gets sacrificed for the greater good and the glory of national socialism.
I think most good kids should just test out of school as soon as they possibly can, and enter non-traditional career fields and learn trades that will be useful in a post-collapse world, they'll have the last laugh on the asshats dying en masse in the streets for lack of a fricken nanny!

Absolute BS what they did to this kid. But on the other hand, it's ultimately for the best that the most decent and capable people are left with a bad taste of government early on. At this point we don't need good people aiding the State with their skills. The State is the enemy.

True story.

If they consider Airsoft guns are weapons, they are stupid.
I think schools should have no right to enter cars. One of the reasons why I never parked on campus in HS. Not that I had things to hide, but even in HS I didn't like the idea that they could enter my car whenever they felt like it.

By todays ridiculous standards I and most of my classmates would be deemed terrorists and expelled. This is beyond pathetic, there is no logical common sense or otherwise remotely reasonable "safety" excuse for such heavy-handed un-American regulation of human existence these clowns are getting away with and the parents are to blame for letting it happen. They've accepted fascism in order to selfishly accomodate their lifestyle and made schools psuedo-parents and now we are at the point where the latter have more say over a child than the former. This is the very definition of perverted. The Founders and EVERYONE of their generation would be appalled at this situation, and they, like me, would be asking why people are not putting an end to this insanity. I might add, and others may not agree, but the children of such parents have every right to disown them. And some may even deserve a punch in the face before walking out on them. I'll take a couple in, they deserve better than what they are getting from their own!
