The only other reason I can think of would be to dump a gun that had been used in a crime. Even then, a school would be one of the last places that I'd think would be considered. A nearby creek or river would be much more likely to be used for that.

I'm with you. I don't think a robber would be so stupid to pitch a gun used in a crime on a school ground where it would definitely be found in a hurry.

See post #21. We are not the only ones who think the guns may have been planted.

...the other handgun's clip had bullets in it.

Clip?

The ignorance of the media astounds me.

The stupid press is the reason lots of otherwise good folks actually believe a gun will jump off the shelf and shoot someone.

Dumbasses, one and all.

"two loaded handguns outside an elementary school. (snip)and also recovered a BB gun and a broken toy gun on the grounds."

I hate having to play detective to determine what the journalist meant. Did they find four guns, two toys and two firearms?

Hmmm, sounds a bit suspicious to me. It almost sounds lik they were planted in order to generate some media fervor. Isn't Michigan in the middle of a big legislative debate on guns?

That's a rough area of town isn't it? My guess (at least concerning the "real" guns) is that some kind of drug or robbery related deal was taking place, but cops or passersby came into view and the parties involved just dropped the guns and ran. Methinks there may be more "Easter eggs" to be found there.

Is Eddie Eagle the one in the NRA videos?

Yes. It's very good to use for younger children.

Flint, Michigan is a hell-hole. Full of boarded-up buildings and warehouses covered in gang graffitti.

A group of children hunting for Easter (search) eggs Saturday during a church event found two loaded handguns outside an elementary school.

HCI plant. The article said "children hunting for Easter eggs" so that means someone had to hide the eggs so WHY DIDN'T THEY FIND THE GUNS? set up/set up/set up.

Can't say as I don't know the area. It just seemed a bit convenient. Or maybe I'm just being paranoid. But these days I don't put anything past the gun grabbers.
