I can understand a zero-tolerance policy for guns in school. But getting worked up for a coin-sized toy isn't part of that, is it?
People are stupid.
The word "gun" was heard and then administrator brains shut down as school policies kicked into high gear to grind a 6-year-old down.
In the end, there was no detention. But the lad apparently did have to write a letter of apology to the bus driver.
It scares me that school anti-violence policies only work against those who aren't a threat.
Tip to Mad Minerva.
