    Zero tolerance for fake guns

    Pending return of the search index, I figure I'll post this as a new thread, and a moderator can merge it into the old thread later.

    A 4th grader gets busted for bringing a tiny LEGO gun to school (video):

    Hahahahahahaha!

    I always wondered why school admins seem so brain dead, but now I work with their federal funding requirements and I've found out that they are required to be brain dead and follow stupid things like this or they lose funding or local board support.
    Just because everyone does something does not mean that it is right to do.

    Sigh. Everyone knows the most dangerous thing you can do with Lego is stand on it.

    Whoa! A choking hazard! Let's ban all Legos! But seriously, that can't do any harm.

    To be fair, there's a big difference between over-reacting by suspending the kid, and over-reacting by ALMOST suspending the kid. Still stupid, yes, but it could have been so much worse.

    A Rhode Island boy whose school banned a hat he made because the toy soldiers on it carried tiny guns was awarded a medal on Friday for his patriotic efforts.
