Zero Tolerance = Real Stupidity

Suspended for using a "Finger Gun" - Article

I agree with the congressman who thinks schools need more flexibility in handing out punishments for misbehavior.  However, is a 10 year old using a "finger gun" really worthy of any punishment at all?  I say no.

There have been many reports of young children suspended for using weapons that consist of food products like Pop-Tarts and chicken fingers.  Now we also have this about a 10 year old boy who pointed his finger at a fellow student.  Shame on him.

The teacher who witnessed this horrific event was so angry she could neither look at him nor talk to him.  Imagine that.  The teacher and the principal should both be suspended for being stupid.
