> This individual was holding it as if it were a weapon

When asked to clarify the communications officer provided the following evidence:

"As you can see in this image the student is squinting a little bit, exactly what you would do if you were aiming."

"Also, you can see by his stance that he is trying to create stability with one foot a little forward."

"I wouldn't be surprised at all if this was actually a trial run and he is testing the AI for weaknesses."

so much of this seems to have nothing to do with what is being held, it looks like gait and posture analysis, and guess what you do with instruments? you assemble them hold them to your eye to look at the alignment of the sections, and you sight through the holecover to look for gaps in the pads.

i believe it might be possible to trigger an alert with empty hands, based on analysis, as well as telescopes, maybe guitars, science class projects such as sextants, trigonometry exercises for those rare birds that do practical math lessons.

really the student manual should specify which gestures, and postures are prohibited AI triggers, akin to pulling a fire alam.

is drama or theatre still a thing in high school? that seems like a major issue there.

at the risk of repeating myself, if school is that dangerous, why are we sending children there?
