7 Year Old Virginia Second Grader Christopher Marshall Suspended From School For Holding Pencil Like A Gun

Public school insanity just got a bit more insane.  A second grader was suspended from school for pointing a pencil at another student and making gun noises. Seven year old Christopher Marshall was playing with another student in class point pencils at each other. For this the boy was suspended. Some how pointing a pencil at another and making a gun noise is dangerous. Really? No you public education fools, handing a pencil as if it were a knife and trying to stab some one is dangerous, not making a pretend gun sound.  IDIOTS,  COMPLETE IDIOTS. There was nothing threatening about this, the boys were playing. But that did not stop the school from suspending the boy for two days.

A Suffolk school suspended a second grader for pointing a pencil at another student and making gun noises.

Seven-year-old Christopher Marshall says he was playing with another student in class Friday, when the teacher at Driver Elementary asked them to stop pointing pencils at each other.

“When I asked him about it, he said, ‘Well I was being a Marine and the other guy was being a bad guy,’” said Paul Marshall, the boy’s father. “It’s as simple as that.”

Boy who held pencil like gun suspended

Listen to the complete stupidity from spokesperson for Suffolk Public Schools: “A pencil is a weapon when it is pointed at someone in a threatening way and gun noises are made.” THREATENING? What part about the boys were playing as reported do you people not understand? Because something sound threatening, that makes it threatening? UNREAL. What if the boy had pointed the pencil at the other child and sang a Church hymn? Would that have made it less threatening? Oh my bad, that would have probably gotten him expelled for bringing religion into school.  But this is the crap that comes out of public education these days. They cannot comprehend the difference between the two.

“Some children would consider it threatening, who are scared about shootings in schools or shootings in the community,” said Bradshaw. “Kids don’t think about ‘Cowboys and Indians’ anymore, they think about drive-by shootings and murders and everything they see on television news every day.”
