A 12-year-old Florida girl is accused of bringing stun guns to a middle school to sell to classmates, authorities said.

The student, whose name is not being released, was arrested Friday on a charge of possession of a weapon on school property, the Tampa Bay Times reported. The investigation began earlier in the day when a school staff member at Coleman Middle School in Tampa told administrators that the student had a stun gun, the newspaper reported.

When the school’s resource officer removed the girl from class, she admitted to buying five electric stun guns online, WTVT reported. According to police, the girl admitted to selling three of the stun guns on Thursday, the television station reported.

On Friday, the girl had two black Vipertek stun guns in her possession, WFLA reported. Police say there was no threat made to any individual or the school itself.

Police did not say how much she sold the items for, but the cost of Vipertek stun devices starts at $9.99 on Amazon, the Times reported.

According to police, the three stun guns the girl sold on Thursday have not been located, WTVT reported.

The student was taken to the Hillsborough Juvenile Detention Center, the Times reported.

Consider that a girl was gang raped during a school assembly and none of the teachers freaking noticed I would say having a stun gun in school might be a good idea.

Agree. Locking her up in a Juvenile Detention Center (jail) is a little drastic for having defensive weapons.

These are very nice stunners...
Have bought several of them and given them as presents for the purse...

At least in the crime-ridden MD schools, females shouldn’t be without them...
Even for 8-9 year old girls who may have to occasionally be around people with the JoeBiden tendencies...

These stunners are great rape-stoppers, IMHO...

They know when a kid with his mind blasted on SSRI dope starts shooting up the school, the teachers aren’t armed, and the cops will wait outside until he runs out of ammo.

Why is she a hellion?

A stun gun is very much a defensive weapons.

Selling pipe bombs would be some thing else.

You’re really glosin over the bigger picture here.

How about dismantle all their dam public schools, stop collecting property taxes for schools, and allow parents to send their kids to better private schools? Or homeschool?

That way they statistically get a better education, wont have other students and public school teachers raping them, and dont get libtard govt sponsored indoctrination.

She was selling them. Makes sense to me.

Ah... brass knuckles.... a girl always remembers her first defensive weapon...

They didn't have any of those fancy stun guns when I rode the bus. But brass knuckles worked.

Correct...
I chose the wrong example, since all of my children (since they were 6 & 8), grandchildren, and great grandchildren have been to private schools or have been home schooled... At least up until they reached college...

In 1968, wife & I had bought our dream house located in walking distance from elementary school, junior high high school, and high school... We thought we were set for life...

SCOTUS changed all that when, a couple of years later, the black robes decided that our children were required to ride 55 minutes each way to run down ghetto-level schools...
They never set foot in a government school again...
Wonderfully, it has become a family tradition...
