I can actually empathize with the Principal.

Imagine the phone call from a lib opposed to guns who doesn’t want the kid exposed to guns or toys with guns

Might even threaten a lawsuit.

I am surprised the school allowed the cupcakes in the first place. Many school won’t even allow that.

"Principal Susan Wright released a statement to local media defending the decision.

“These are toys that were commonplace in the past,” she wrote. “However, some parents prohibit all guns as toys. In light of that difference, the school offered to replace the soldiers with another item and the soldiers were returned home with the student.”

Living in a democratic society entails respect for opposing opinions,” she stated. “In the climate of recent events in schools we walk a delicate balance in teaching non-violence in our buildings and trying to ensure a safe, peaceful atmosphere.”"

So this principle made the decision base on a democratic vote? or hitler like authoritarian rule??? there's so much hypocrisy from this likely left wing principle its pathetic...
