Sad.

Sad that we, as adults, have let things degenerate to the point that a seven year old who dreams of cowboys and cops and robbers can't enjoy his imagination.

[DustyMoment]

OMG!!! When are the adults going to start acting like adults instead of acting younger than these children??

This is absolutely disgraceful. Little boys play with toy guns, they beat each other up, they play cowboys and indians, they play rough, they play cops and they play dead.

Trying to push PC, effeminate, wussified behaviors onto them at a young age only confuses them and creates behavioral problems down the road.

STOP THE IDIOCY!! Let the children drive the buses and make the adults sit in the back and be quiet.

The bus driver pulled the bus over and took the first graders backpack which had the gun inside. Police identified it as a toy gun

What imbeciles. They had to call the police to figure out if it was a toy...

[indcons]

Bizarre.....what's next? Imitation slingshots?

but zero tolerance means that every student in every case is treated the same we can look like we are "doing something" without ever having to demonstrate any semblance of judgement or even common sense.

[Police identified it as a toy gun, but the penalties for having a toy weapon, can be as severe as having the real thing. Like most schools, Suffolk has a zero tolerance policy.]

The children are being prepared for zero tolerance government; sad day for boys in todays godless school systems.

In hopes of preventing situations like this from happening in the future, Suffolk schools offers this advice.

(Read in a "Cops" Voice.)

Step AWAY from the bus SLOWLY, and Remove your children from the public school system NOW!

Here's a pic.

Hey, get your finger off of that fake trigger!

It isn't a gun if it doesn't actually shoot a projectile of some type. A "toy gun" is a false statement. It should be a toy that resembles a gun. These people are so stupid that it is hard to imagine their thought processes. When I was a kid, we ALL played with toy guns, probably including some of these leftist idiots who are in charge today.

This is nothing more then the standard attempt to demonize firearms and brainwash our children into thinking guns are inherently evil!
