A 14 year-old boy, attending a middle school in Wyoming, was suspended for sketches of the popular video game, Halo. Search warrants were assigned to the boy's house, his father's home, and took his computer for evidence. The boy has not been charged with any crimes, however, he did threaten a fellow pupil and he has been seen shooting pigeons with an assault rifle while on his roof.

I think this has truly nothing to do with Halo, but with the danger of the kid hurting someone.

The classmate also said the boy previously said he ''sits on his roof and shoots pigeons with an assault rifle'' and that he and some friends had made a movie ''dealing with snuffing people out.''

Based on that, Principal Joseph DeLuca searched the boy's locker and discovered the notebook.

The teen's mother said many of the writings and drawings relate to the video game ''Halo,'' which features a superhuman soldier who battles aliens.

    This kid might sound like the jerk that follows Halo for a living but it looks like he just wants to fit in!

    Why would you tell someone that you shoot Pidgeons from your roof? To impress them!

    Did it not occur to anybody that the kid might be LYING. Besides, who hasn't said "I'm gonna kill you" or something along those lines at one stage or another.

    Suspended over *bleep*ing sketches of something he loves, bloody hopeless.

      I would be one of them who has never said that.

        Fine then, but my point is that people say that they'll do this or that and it'll never happen, so is it possible that the kid was just doing the same damn thing?

    Oh my friggin' god, they're sketches of a friggin' video game. It's not like the kid was drawing a *bleep*ing swatstika and some Nazi SS symbols. School systems need to lighten up on some shit.
