Well, at least they didn’t overreact. :-P
What would they have done if it was a BB gun? Call in the 82nd Airborne?

Way back in school, I accidentally turned on a metronome while shoving a bunch of stuff in my locker. The principal and a couple of teachers came and got me out class and took me to my locker, where there was the metronome ticking away.
Kind of embarrassing, but no SWAT team, no arrest, no lockdown, no punishment. Of course, this was back when there were deer rifles in trucks in the parking lot, and every guy carried a pocketknife.

So then, shouldn’t it be the kid that thought it was real and set the alarm that should be charged with “false public alarm”?

Try to imagine the chaos that would have resulted from somebody actually popping off a roll of caps. You can still buy them, I see - $2.69 for a box of 20 50-shot rolls. Ammo's sure gone up.
Mind you, anyone who took a cap gun to my high school would have been hooted off the property. Might as well bring a pacifier.
To: grady
We need a comprehensive cap gun ban.
The whole school probably needs grief counseling, too.
We've become a nation of pussies.
