PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Christan Morales said her son just wanted to honor American troops when he wore a hat to school decorated with an American flag and small plastic Army figures.
But the school banned the hat because it ran afoul of the district's zero-tolerance weapons policy. Why? The toy soldiers were carrying tiny guns.

Funny story...when Georgia was being invaded by Russia, my neighbors packed up and fled to the mountains, claiming that Russia was invading Georgia (the state) and it's only a matter of time before they got to us.
We live in Florida.

At the time, both Fox News and CNN had little Google auto-locator maps inset next to the bylines of all their headline stories.
The auto-locators got confused, and upon hearing about the invasion of "Georgia," both their respective maps appeared to indicate that the Russians were amassing tanks just outside of Savannah.

Even so... common sense should tell you that Russia is not going to invade a single state in the US.

what sick mind would even consider these to be remotely close to the "zero tolerance" gun BS... if there is any chance anybody would mistake one of those TINY little guns to a real one... you shouldn't even be going to a school, you need to be seeing a psychologist and seeking medical attention immediately...

People are weird with ***like that. Like back when I lived in the barracks I had a friend that used to shoot competitively when she was a civilian. So she had a display bullet on her desk which she won at some tournament. One day they do a room inspectation and bam shes in trouble because she has weapons in her room lol

Zero Tolerance is one thing; a knife, a pellet gun, something that is a weapon, yeah... but toy soldiers holding tiny "weapons"? That's just messed up. Then again, they just banned the hat, not the kid. If it was the kid, I'd call foul.
