Here here!

Fully agreed. Granted there are tons of issues over the years with Pokemon (cards most memorable), but all the same, the franchise itself shouldn't be to blame for the shenanigans of children and the like.
 
This just goes to show you, keep your Poke friends close, and your Pokemon haters/thiefs closer. That way you know your stuff is safe. And to make sure your stuff is with you at all times. Or at least know it is in good hands.

What Tina meant was this: The students are in a "gifted" program, yet are using violent actions to resolve conflict, therefore they must not be that "gifted." Gifted kids would use words and reasoning to resolve conflict.

Of course, you already knew that. You were just making fun of the sentence structure. Well done. (that last little bit was sarcasm)
