Just read this and tell me if I have fugured it out properly.
AMHERST, Mass. – Two middle school students who spent months working on a science project to prove how dangerous BB guns can be were disqualified from the state middle school science fair – because BB guns are too dangerous.
Amherst Regional Middle School eighth-graders Nathan C. Woodard and Nathaniel A. Gorlin-Crenshaw spent seven months researching and testing their hypothesis that BB guns can be deadly and shouldn’t be used by children. Minors can’t purchase BB guns, but they can receive them as gifts.
The students said they proved that BB guns can penetrate a human to cause a fatal injury; pellets can penetrate farther than BBs; and clothing affects how far a BB and pellet will penetrate.
The boys spent about $200 on ballistics gelatin, which has the same density and consistency as human flesh, to use during their ballistic tests, which were done under the supervision of science teacher Jennifer D. Welborn and Nathan’s mother, Sharon L. Downs.
“We put a lot of time into this – every Monday and Thursday since November,” Gorlin-Crenshaw told The Republican of Springfield. “We devoted a weekend to the actual testing.”
But 10 days before the June 4 event at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, they were told not to bother attending.
OK, so they’re anti-gun youths, using a science project to show that kids shouldn’t be allowed BB guns.
They had to acquire a ‘deadly’ BB gun for their tests but they were, by the grace of whatever diety they worship, not hurt or killed by the super-duper dangerous BB gun that other kids should not be allowed to own.
And now they’re bitching that their exibit is being banned by other, adult, anti-gun bigots.
WTF!?
