I guess we shouldn't give the radical left wing extremist demokkkrat scumbag socialists any ideas like, background checks for buying cap guns. (Shaking my head in wonder. So are Gene and Roy and Hoppie.)

Shouldn’t kids have a Constitutional right to own a cap gun?

no mens rea, the child was effectively tortured by the administration, the mom should file a child abuse complaint.

In my day, if a teacher caught me with a cap gun (or any other contraband), she would take it, place it insider her desk, and give it back at the end of the day. The worst that would happen was maybe missing out on recess.

When are people going to abandon the public schools en masse and either homeschool or private school their kids.

As for being a weapon, a cap gun is a club.
It can’t actually launch a projectile.
Whe idiot scaring the kid into wetting his pants needs to be enhanced interrogated until he to pees his pants.

Don’t you remember your civics classes? I seem to remember that the right to keep and bear arms only applies to those over 18. Cap guns included. My parents should have been jailed for all the toy guns I had. I mean look how I turned out. LOL!

As long as government approved indoctrinators applied the questioning it’s all okay. “They” can do no wrong. Besides, it was for the kids. That’ll teach the little brat to “love” guns. On the other hand, he may get a lifetime membership to the NRA.

Dennis Praeger said this morning that if the “weapon” had been “loaded,” ie caps ready to be set off, then it would have been considered an explosive device and the cops would have been called.

The Post explains that the principal — Jennifer L. Young, according to Dowell Elementary’s website — told the kindergartener’s mother that things would have been even worse had the toy gun been loaded with caps. In that case, the school would have regarded the plaything as an explosive and called the police.

So school officials are too dumb to handle a "loaded" cap gun.

What if they were presented with a real firearm in the school that was just doped by a would be shooter. I bet they would call the cops and hope he doesn't grab it and start shooting. The smart thing would be to take it and neutralize the threat or at least make it safe depending on the situation. I bet they don't know how to do either.

If this had happened to my child I would have slapped that biatch principal up side the head and taken my chances with a jury. This is just so stupid.

When my daughter was questioned why she thought owning guns was a Constitutional right during a discussion in her High School civics class she gave and answer that was not to the liberal teachers liking.

The liberal teacher pressed her and said "If someone broke into your house would you shoot them in the head and feel good about it."

Her answer: No sir, because my Dad would be very angry at me because, you always aim for "center mass" and Double Tap.

Needless to say the liberal teacher was not amused, but I was very proud!

The suspension will also be part of his permanent academic record.

Does anyone else find this totally hilarious?

Future employer: Well you had a 4.0 grade point but there is that Kindergarten cap gun incident.

Maybe its because I'm retiring from very good job and I look back on my childhood pranks and think this wouldn't even make my top 1000.

This is local news for me. It was very embarrassing to listen to the report on radio.

“When are people going to abandon the public schools en masse and either homeschool or private school their kids.”

If you’re going to live the lifestyle we’ve decided we need; McMansion, two BMW 3 Series, dinner out 3 time a week, golf, tennis...etc. we can’t either home school or abandon the government babysitting service called schools. Also, most people, probably 90%, are not qualified to home school a dog. Private school is out of reach of that 90% also. Interestingly, an astonishing number of public school teachers and professionals send their kids to private school.

My little boy (5 yrs) just finished pre-school yesterday...in his stuff was a Thank you card and some gifts from a parent who was here on a work visa from Japan. They have a beautiful, smart, and caring little girl that helped my son and has been a good friend over the last 2 yrs...my son has CP and is also very handsome, smart, and caring...one of the items in his bag was a water pistol - something that I and probably everyone else on this forum has had growing up - especially the last day of school - something to bring in and shoot everyone with water to celebrate another school year ending - all in good fun - and all those with common sense - can appreciate that.

What struck me was that, here is a mom, from Japan, exposing her child to out culture and sense of fun, that is going back to Japan in a few months because her husband’s position was for only 5 yrs here - but knew that it was a toy and not to be regarded as an insult or to show any type of irresponsibility...and the kids love stuff like that - because as a responsible parent - they are taught right from wrong in our house to both our kids...because every time this stupid left wing socialists crap comes up - we point it out so they know how to spot idiots as they grow up — and the examples are really getting too many to keep up with!
