I'm not that old either. This country is in bad bad shape! No one has any upbringing, self worth or common sense any more.

The south sound's like a beautiful place Bob....
Its not America that is in bad shape if you cant put a gun on the back of your pick up truck. I was a cub scout in school, and we could NEVER bring a knife into school. Not that I grew up in some murderious neighborhood, it was out of saftey, not to mention Boy Scout saftey.

A butter knife and a LEGO is NOT the same thing. It's ridiculous, this country is a bunch of stress freaks, so quick to bring on the drama and FEAR.
The SENSIBLE thing would have been to take it away, tell the KID that it's against the rules and explain WHY the rules are what they are...not just suspend the kid and put him through hell, he's a KID.
I guess I'm still thinking when we were in grade school in the 80's.....when things were "normal". I wouldn't want to a kid growing up in this day and age....kids can't be kids...

Agreed, the teacher should have been human and just taught the kid that guns are bad, and that the 2nd ammendment should be removed so that no one is allowed to have guns.
