Clear plastic toy gun gets kid expelled for a year??

Postby CowboyT » Wed, 06 Oct 2010 15:29:03

Looks like the kid had forgotten his clear plastic toy gun, that apparently shoots plastic BB's, was in his backpack. The punishment? "Mandatory expulsion" due to a zero-tolerance gun policy.

Apparently this expulsion might extend into the following school year, too.

Can we say, "overkill"?

Epic facepalm?

Even better: Epic mass-firing of that entire School Board and Superintendent! This is just inexcusable to do to a 7-year-old little boy.

Well, rules are rules and there is no excuse for ignorance of the law... :whistle:
No more catchy slogans for me...I am simply fed up...4...four...4...2+2...
