Stolen from politard land

I'll confess, I didn't even read the article, but I figured you guys would like to discuss this. Guy's guns got confiscated because his son did something with a water gun

I just read it

If I had a dollar for every time somebody threatened to shoot me with a real gun when I was a kid I'd have been able to retire in 6th grade.

I think that its time to start firing and suspending teachers that use glue guns for their class decorations. You never know when one will snap and put hot glue on their students.

I hate all of this gun control BS. I wish they would leave us alone.

Mayer received a call from the pistol licensing office informing him that his pistol license had been revoked and that police would visit his home to confiscate his weapons
There would've been a horrendous boating incident then I would move south of the Mason/Dixon.

This is merely the latest of a long list of incidents involving hysterical reactions to so-called gun “threats” made by children in schools since the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre in December.
- In March, police rushed to Malden High School in Massachusetts after reports of a gun only to discover a neon-colored water pistol.
- Last month a third grader in Michigan was reprimanded by school officials when he brought a cupcake to school adorned with a plastic toy soldier holding a gun.
- A ten year old Virginia boy who was arrested for taking a plastic toy gun to school is now facing a potentially permanent criminal record over the incident.
- A student in Florence, Arizona was recently suspended because he had a picture of a gun on his computer.
- A six-year-old kindergartner in South Carolina was suspended for taking a small transparent plastic toy gun to school for a show and tell.
- A day before that incident we reported on the five-year-old in Massachusetts who faced suspension for building a small toy gun out of lego bricks and play-shooting his classmates.
- We also reported on an incident that erupted when a discussion between two children about a toy nerf gun caused a lock down and a massive armed police response at two elementary schools in the Bronx.
- In another incident, a Long Island high school was also placed on lock down for 6 hours in response to a student carrying a toy nerf gun.
- In yet another recent incident, a five-year-old girl was suspended after a three hour grilling, and described as a “terroristic threat” when she brought a pink bubble gun to school.
- A South Philadelphia elementary student was searched in front of classmates and threatened with arrest after she mistakenly brought a “paper gun” to school.
- A 6-year-old boy was suspended from his elementary school, also in Maryland, for making a gun gesture with his hand and saying “pow”.
- Days after that incident, another two 6-year-olds in Maryland were suspended for pointing their fingers into gun shapes while playing “cops and robbers” with each other.
- In Oklahoma, a five-year-old boy was also recently suspended for making a gun gesture with his hand.
- And finally, a 13-year-old Middle School seventh grade student in Pennsylvania was also suspended for the same hand gesture.

Look at that thread I started about England, with guns just about banned there, the issue is now with knifes. The same arguments being made in the state for gun control is being made in England for knifes. The fact is, it will never end...

In the latest example of anti-gun hysteria, police in New York State

The sum total of all of this new push for gun control is right here in the first line. Anti-gun hysteria. We're not talking about rational thought. We're talking about people (like many that I live around unfortunately) that are fearful of guns because they don't understand them. They probably weren't raised around them.

The 2 best things all of us can do to fight this:

1- Vote for pro-gun candidates

2- Introduce a new person to shooing

If it does end, it will cost a lot of blood and treasure in order to get it to stop.

This is so stupid I cannot form a rational thought in response. My brain hurts and I'm sick to my stomach after reading about all the kids lives they're trying to ruin.

ATF revoked the FFL of the store who sold the AR to the Mom of the nutt case in Conneticut , why , it was perfectly legal as she passed the back ground check they had no idea she was buying it for a moron. They are appealing with a law suit but Ibet it wrecks them with legal bills as the govt will stall this until it does. Regime of thugs in the whitehouse.

It's getting to the point that I almost wish this would go ahead and just happen. Like ripping the bandaid off quick.

This is why we need someone to sue one of these school districts and it will stop.
