| 7 year old brings gun to school, guess where (Posted on 1/18/13 at 6:52 am)

A handgun was found in the backpack of a 7-year-old boy at a New York City public elementary school on Thursday, triggering a brief lockdown amid heightened concern about gun violence in U.S. schools, officials said. New York City Police Department spokesman John Grimpel said authorities are investigating how the unloaded .22-caliber handgun ended up in the child's backpack. Police also found an ammunition clip and a flare gun in the bag belonging to the second-grade student, Grimpel said. Officials locked down the Wave Preparatory Elementary School, located in Queens, for an hour, the New York City Education Department said. In December a gunman killed 20 first-graders along with six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. On Wednesday President Barack Obama launched the biggest U.S. gun-control push in generations, urging Congress to approve an assault weapons ban and background checks for all gun buyers to prevent mass shootings like the Newtown massacre.
Odds on the dad being an urbanite Obama voter?

They just killed that child. Obliviously, he needed to protect himself on the walk to and from school. How will he fend off the criminals now?

Why he'll simply make a call to the police and get in a good game of solitaire until they get there.

Man that's scary. If only there were laws preventing 7 year olds from bringing guns to school.

Nah, what's scary is the law preventing guns. This story will be used to show how a legal gun owner (currently) ALLOWED the 7 yr old access to a "legal" gun. Yet "they" want to arm the "freedom fighters" of OTHER countries.

The policies of schools today are insane. Friend of mine had a son in 10th grade. He was constipated so he got some chocolated Ex-Lax from the cabinet and put it in his back pack. Took it out during class and the guy next to him said "Can I have some of that chocolate?" Gave it to him and said "You idiot, you just ate some of my Ex-Lax." Victim told teacher. Teacher told principal. Principal expelled kid permanently for bringing drugs to school. Parents had to go through appeal process and kid was allowed to come back to school 3 weeks later.
