Student suspended for making "finger gun"

Ridiculous.

Really, is there anything else to say?

Fear for her life?

Those teachers obviously have never had to teach inner city school children, or really any sort of "disruptive" kids.

So sad that things like this are actually allowed to happen.

Folks, this stupidity is just the beginning. Its only going to get worse. Much worse. Stupidity is spreading like a disease. Give it a generation or two and pretty soon our world will look like the world of Idiocracy.

I would love to go down to that school personally and tell that teacher and administration right to their faces they are beyond stupid. The word "Stupidity" just does not convey the strong feelings I have about the sheer stupidity of this scenario. God help us all.

I swear evolution is going backwards for some people!

This is a perfect example of the mass hysteria that the buzzword 'terrorist' creates. Sure the girl is in the wrong a little bit as that kind of action can be seen as a threat but let's not overreact!

Fitting quote....

"Common sense is not so common." - Voltaire

These things are very dangerous.

I wonder what would have happened had she yelled "BANG" Is her teacher delusional? This makes no sense!
