Dad: 5-Year-Old Suspended For Making Gun Gesture With Hand
5-year-old boy was reportedly suspended from school after making a gun gesture with his hand on the playground.
His father, David Hendrix, was furious when he found out his son was issued a suspension for the gesture.
Hendrix wanted the issue resolved and met with the school principle who did not want to drop the suspension, so he pressed further.

What the hell is a "one day in-school suspension."

Detention in the library, or the main office.
You know, so as to make a spectacle of a normal child.
His only crime, is not using his middle finger against the principal.
Let's start a new education trend, beginning with the next time some school fool pulls a stunt this stupid. Do it five, maybe six times and word will spread throughout the entire anthill.
Beat. And. Release.

So I got suspension in school about once every two weeks in school and did not even know it. The principle and I were almost on first name basis. LOL

And to think, we actually brought guns to school.
The libs are sure making school a miserable place.
I can't wait for the day some kid gets busted for this crap, and when he gets in trouble, he pulls out a copy of the Second Amendment from his little back pocket...

OK, no body got it. He wasn't wearing gloves or a long sleeve shirt, so he had bare arms.

Here we go again! Most of us can remember playing at recess and a few of us can remember those imaginary toys we played with on those play periods. Cops and robbers, cowboys and indians were favorite past times in those play periods. As I have mentioned before, little boys are supposed to be at a table coloring with the little girls or maybe even cutting out paperdolls. Gotta' keep the quotient idiots happy! Can't have things to do that are just for boys or just for girls. That's the reason that children are gender challenged but we've got to keep the playing field even. This is all part of the indoctrination that the leftists are so in favor of and it stinks.
I'm most worried that unless parents challenge these "new" rules, children will be branded before they go out in their lives and try to make it. We are supposed to uplift children in their pursuits, not challenge them on every move they make. Nothing wrong with playacting in a healthy way. If this gesture was wrong, how is the boy supposed to be prepared thru life to go to war? At some point the little boy will become a man and may want to serve his country and I doubt he will be able to color his way thru the service.

...for boys. Or haven't you noticed who's getting suspended over this stupid bullshit.
It is a great idea to keep guns out of schools and I think I could say that everyone would be a 100% in favor of it. Pointing a finger is not going to hurt anyone. They need to just stop the things that hurt people, not fingers. When I was a kid, I had cowboy guns, army guns and I grew up to be a pretty normal guy. I am sure it is the same with most of you. Things have just gone off the deep end.

I was speaking of students. Teachers having guns is not a bad idea.

I look at it this way. IF your going to shoot a place up. Are you going to a gun free zone or a shooting range.
