If they ban fingers at the school, then obviously Shooter McGavin is not allowed.
Obviously fingers ARE banned at some schools.

This was all on speaker phone and when my son was told to tell me what his did he was completely crying his eyes out. But he managed to tell me enough to figure out what had happened.

Turns out he was repeating the old joke I did to him several days before. I did the old 'wanna see my quick draw' where you hold your finger gun down at your side and when they say yeah you don't move your hand and say 'wanna see it again' like it's soo fast they missed it.

It felt good to make sure the principle heard me say that it wasn't a big deal at all, you didn't do anything wrong, I wasn't mad and we would talk more about it when he got home.

My son said the principle wasn't very happy with me and re-iterated that it was a big deal. They truly believe that a kid using a stick or fingers to pretend it's a gun makes students scared and warrants one of their harshest disciplines.

The lesson my kid learned like the kid in the story is fucked up. That playing like 9 year old's all do in their free time is a menace, its wrong, scary. And to get told they might get kicked out of school because of it would make any kid shit his pants because their thinking man when my parents find out I'm in soo much trouble.

Ha Jeeze, just tell him it's not ok at school and not to do it again for crap sake...
That is a fucking ridiculous story Jeff. Do you know other kids/parents from his class? I would poll them, possibly on video, about whether that type of thing scares them or their children and bring this information to the principal's attention. She will of course ignore your request for the restoration of sanity, falling back on the old "it's district-wide policy" bullshit.

Then write a letter to the editor detailing how your son was MUCH more terrified by the insane over reaction to his harmless gesture than any of his classmates were by the incident itself. Make sure to send copies to his teacher, principal and the school board.
