Deaf Three-Year-Old Not Allowed to Sign His Name Because It Violates Preschool’s Weapons Policy

[GSG]

If anyone is interested, here is their petition at Change.org: http://www.change.org/petitions/let-3-year-old-deaf-boy-hunter-spanjer-keep-his-sign-name

I signed the Nickelback petition last fall and now I get frickin emails all the time for stuff :lol:

Was the petition to stop Nickelback from ever recording again?

Close! It was the one to prevent them from playing at halftime of the Lions game last Thanksgiving.

I don't know what you guys are talking about, that four year olds hand gesture is terrifying.

Love GI, but this is ridiculous.

My luck, they'd probably be replaced by Volbeat or Faith No More

I don't necessarily agree with the school districts view..But I do have a habit of making an instant (kneejerk reaction?) judgement on crazy stuff like this, then spend the rest of my alotted time trying to figure out how/why they come up with the decisions they come up with, or what led them to this.

It does pose an interesting question (or four).

Like...If Hunter was your Son, would you change his name or come up with a nickname so he wouldn't be as likely to get shot by police later on in life?

Should change his name to d!(k - and see what happens when he signs that.
