According to Philadelphia mother Dianna Kelly, who spoke with FOX 29 about the incident, her daughter, Melody Valentin, was given a sheet of paper by her grandfather that was torn and folded to look like a pistol. When another student saw the fake gun, which Melody had thrown in the trash can, he alerted the teacher.

The teacher then went over the top when reprimanding Melody, Kelly told Fox 29, saying that he "should call the cops on her" and that she could "be arrested."

Okay. WTF is it with Pennsylvania lately?

A seven-year-old boy was suspended from his elementary school for using an imaginary grenade while playing "Rescue the World" on the playground.

The story was featured on Fox 31 Denver. Second-grader Alex Evans pretended to throw a grenade into a box full of, in his words, "pretend evil forces."

Don't fret too much about the last one. As we speak this young man is being trained with xbox in an underground Nevada cavern. In just three years he will be a fully certified drone pilot.

Alright, Australians. Welcome to the Stupid Zone.

Celebrating birthdays at school just got a little less fun for kids in Australia. New guidelines issued Tuesday by the country's National Health and Medical Research Council say that children can no longer blow out the candles on cakes at school because doing so spreads too many germs.

I cannot express my outrage sufficiently with such amazingly stupid behavior by alleged adults. Instead, I will let George Carline do it for me.

Don't blame you mate. Seems we have inherited the "morality police" thanks to our Attorney General (who has a little one of her own about 5 I think)

Can't wait to vote this ridiculous gummient OUT!

The National Health and Medical Research Council are our latest thought / morality police....as usual when gummints intervene they get it all wrong.

So all in all, slapping "sunscreen" on our school children MAY be a health risk but will the gummint organisations investigate? Fuck no...too much revenue may be lost.

So, if one can't blow candles out on a birhday cake at school, then what are they going to do to all the coughers? What if that kid sighs heavy when the test is handed out? Are we all now going to be subject to the breathing police? Not to mention the huggers of the world..

The school, Adam Road Primary School in Western Australia, said it introduced the ban because hugging at the school was "out of control with students hugging each other several times a day". The acting principal, Gemma Preston, said the rule was introduced last year after injuries and bruises caused by "overenthusiastic" hugs. A woman in South Australia, Fi Garde, wrote on Facebook that her six-year-old was punished during her first month at school for hugging.
"We are a huggy family, I've had to tell her after the bell goes you can hug 'til your heart is content but while at school high-five everyone," she said. "How sad."

It looks like there’ll be no trick-or-treating this year in a school in Seattle, Washington and Arizona as the administration has banned students from celebrating Halloween.

By NBC News staff

The school system in Cranston, R.I., announced it is banning traditional father-daughter and mother-son activities, saying they are a violation of the state's gender discrimination law, the Providence Journal reported late Monday.

Female students at the Queen of Peace High School in North Arlington, N.J., stood up during homeroom Friday, raised their right hands, and recited a pledge in unison. "I do solemnly promise not to use profanities of any kind within the walls and properties of Queen of Peace High School. In other words, I swear not to swear. So help me God," they said.

Meanwhile, boys at the school were free to use whatever language they wanted.

When did hugging and halloween become uncivilized and non-conformist? I must've missed that.

Officials in at least two schools in Colorado and a school district in California have banned students from bringing in flags in an effort to calm emotions surrounding the debate over the country's immigration policies.

Parents, students and U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colorado, are criticizing the bans -- which include flags from all countries -- saying they encroach on students' free speech rights while failing to address the increased tensions.

The temporary bans were implemented after tens of thousands of students across the country walked out of classes last week amid protests of immigration reforms being debated in Congress. A rally in downtown Denver drew more than 50,000 people on March 25.

“For the record, suspicion can kill, and prejudice can destroy. And a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own, for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.”

Personally, I agree with these guys, they're actually trying to ban something in hopes of improving the lives of everyone!
