I too picked up a tobacco spit cup. There's a trick to simply grabbing the sides just right but sometimes it can still be on there.

As for the toy issue...Wait imaginary guns? Really? Lego guns were not allowed. Lego swords yes. Lol. But no guns in any way shape or form. Yet we were still allowed to use imaginary guns all the time. I used to pretend to shoot ghosts with the Ghostbuster gun/wand thingies. Two kids were constantly cowboys with imaginary guns. Right in front of several teachers. That's surprising. This is all at a Lutheran school too. Kindergarten through second grade.

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear that statement as ALL sarcasm.

The line they drew is NO guns. Not "guns smaller than 5 inches long are permitted" or "guns that are not traditional looking guns are ok". They made an example of this kid within to school to say "Hey, kids, really, like NO guns."

I remember hearing on an earlier show about those guns that get custom painted to look like Hello Kitty and stuff. They don't look like guns that could shoot up a classroom, but they sure as fuck could. So if a kid brought a hot pink toy gun, I expect he should be suspended, just like this kid who brought a realistic yet tiny fake gun.
What if the kid does a "Shooter McGavin"? Acceptable? Too Far?

Shooter McGavin is built in to the human body.

Actual guns, regardless of their size, shape or colour, whether intended for use by terrorists or Lego men, are banned at the school.

If they ban fingers at the school, then obviously Shooter McGavin is not allowed.

It's a toy. Tell him he can't play with it and put it in his pocket for christ sake..

My Son is 9 and got sent to the principles office and had to call home while in her office to explain to me that he used his fingers as a weapon. She spoke first to explain to me that it was a suspendable offense and a serious issue that made the kids in the class fearful but since it was my son's first time in her office they would only be making note of it in the event it happens again.

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...

Obviously fingers ARE banned at some schools.

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.

Agreed. was to drunk at the time to verbalize it but thats what I wanted to say. Schools have enough to worry about without having to regulate what kind of toy-non-toy weapons your kids are bringing to school.

Just remember schools have no humor. If you think its funny then you'll probably get suspended.
