Maybe the reason folks at school did not say anything is the somewhat long history of liberal school systems over-reacting to an infantile degree to ANY child interested in firearms.
EXAMPLE; 7 year olds being expelled and in some cases arrested for drawing pictures of guns.
My experience of the last 20 years tells me that we know nothing about this case and that all the media is wrong.
I’ll wait.
Spot on. The initial narrative is never what is the actual narrative.
Remember the case of the child whose pop-tart resembled a gun?
Schools tend to react to innocent things but ignore threats. We have all heard stories about how a student was suspended because he mentioned that he went with his father on a hunting trip. And another story where a disruptive student ranted about all the people in school he wanted to kill but the leftist school administrators gave him a pass because evidently making violent threats is the student’s “right to self-expression.”
