School Officials Object to Image of a Gun Depicted on… Signs Banning Guns

Okay. This is proof that liberals do work hard. It takes a lot of work to find something to be more stupid about than the last thing they were stupid about. People might misinterpret the meaning of the sign?

Some officials in Illinois are apparently not pleased that stickers being posted at schools around the state feature an image of a firearm — even though the gun also has a red slash through it.

Under concealed carry laws recently passed in Illinois, schools, churches, government agencies and liquor stores are required to post 4-by-6 inch stickers informing gun owners they can’t carry a firearm on the property. These are considered “gun-free zones.”

But school officials are objecting, not to the gun-free zones, but to the “bothersome” stickers that they say could be alarming or confusing to some people.

“One of my biggest concerns as a principal is safety and security,” Tinley Park High School Principal Theresa Nolan told the Southtown Star. “It is bothersome to have to post a sticker of a gun that says, ‘Hey, folks, leave your guns at home.’ “

Though she says she’s not firmly against posting the signs, Nolan said she is worried that some might not understand or misinterpret the message they are sending.
