What is the woke world coming to when you can't intentionally poison kids that are bullying your child?

Something doesn't make sense here.

The drink has a mix of lemon, salt, and vinegar

Ok, probably tasted like ass.

So, how did he end up drinking so much he became nauseous and developed a headache after drinking it?

Didn't it give off an odor?

If not, didn't he immediately taste the ass and spit it out?

Hospitalized? For taking a mouthful of ass tasting liquid?

Not defending the mom here but the reaction seems way out of proportion to what happened.

LOL

From School's Facebook:

Joe Trevino doesn't recommend Legacy Traditional School - Alamo Ranch.

They allow bullies to steal lunches from other students and then pursue legal actions when parents take matters into their own hands!!

Hopefully the kid learned his lesson, because I don't think mom is going to learn hers.

You have to understand how these Deplorables think.

If your precious little bully stole someone else's drink
and it made them sick,
you'd assume it's laced with something potentially deadly.
Because that's what you would do, as a mother,
if it was your kid getting bullied and having his drinks stolen.

FWIW from what I could gather the Legacy Traditional Schools seem to be a conservative charter school.

Whatever happened to good old laxatives and a bully just finding themselves in a really crappy situation?

Aren't vinegar with lemon juice touted as healthy drink additives?

Wait. Did she mix it up and then purposely have her kid offer it to the thugs?

Or did she just lace it up, and the bullies stole it from him?

If the latter, I vote to acquit.

From what I can gather.

Her kid (maybe 10 years old) was being bullied (this is her claim I believe) including stealing the kids drink bottle (a gatorade like drink I think). So she mixed the gatorade like drink with lemon, salt and vinegar and had the kid take it to school.

The reports are not clear on how the bully ended up with the drink, maybe the kid gave it to him.

He "consumed it" what ever that means. I mean if it tasted like ass, why not spit it out immediately. If it wasn't nasty tasting then how did it make him sick.

Sounds like the dick bully kid's family is looking for a payout from the idiot mom.

But the mom is facing a felony! That is seemingly ridiculous.

Here's a little more info, and not behind a paywall:

Ready for this? The kid is autistic.

Looks like the mom is a nurse, and knew the mix wasn't toxic.

The kid offered it to the bully during PE class. The bully DID spit it out, immediately. From the Austin American story, you've got to wonder if he swallowed more than a sip, if that..

Frankly, if it turns out to be what the mom claims, this could be all about some bully-turned-drama-queen.

NOT that I endorse her actions. But bullying an autistic kid?!?

Okay, instead of acquit, I vote guilty. Here's your well-deserved $1, Bub.

Now pay up, mom!

A picture of the scene is coming into view.

Conservative school
Charter School
Piss Poor School
"Traditional" school
Patriotism central to curriculum
Incapable of managing special needs kids
Bullying of special needs kids seems like a conservative value
Bullied kid's family probably got no help from school
Bullied kid's mom decided to take action on her own to teach bully a lesson.
Bully gets a mouthful of slightly bad tasting liquid
Bully is now center of derision
Turns it into a hospital stay
Lawfare ensues.

See jeff, THIS is an example of Lawfare.

Notice that a classmate gave the bully the drink, so more people were in on it, it seems.

Why not endorse her actions?

Sounds like a pretty good idea to me. Just tasted nasty, wasn't gonna hurt the bully. Bully would never have tasted it if he hadn't stolen the drink.

But of course the pigs would take the bully's side. They recognize their own.

Hopefully she gets a jury of sane people.

Check the articles. This one might not've been stolen; it might've been offered.
