    The rules that schools have no are just plain ridiculous. They have really taken things too far. Here they have the "no sweets" rule but THEN have fundraisers at local fast food and ice cream shops. It's only ok if they are pimpin' your kids out to make a buck for the school. In my opinion we all must endure a little pain/sadness/sorrow in our lives to be able to appreciate the beauty of happiness, the way things are so delicately handled anymore will surely lead to an interesting future, indeed.

    If be interesting you mean terrible, then i agree.
    My dad used to carry his squirrel rifle to school during hunting season, just in case "dinner" stuck it's head out on the way home.
    We carried actual rifles as props in the homecoming parade(they did make us remove the bolt. And put it in our pocket!)

    When our boys were born, my wife didn't want them to have toy guns. I disagreed, but went along. Sure enough, one day in the yard, the two year old picked up a stick, pointed it at the dog, and yelled "bang". Now i'm pretty sure they own every model of Nerf gun manufactured.

    That reminds me of when I worked in daycare many years ago. They were not allowed to bring toy guns to school. If they "made" a gun out of tinker toys or legos we were to take them away. Then the kids started going "bang" with their fingers. I guess today we'd be expected to call the police. :noway:
    A 6-year-old boy was suspended from an elementary school in Maryland for forming his fingers into a gun and saying “pow,” according to UPI. http://blog.sfgate.com/sfmoms/2013/01/04/boy-suspended-after-shooting-classmate-with-finger-gun/

    Suspension is apparently the way to proceed with the finger gun approach.

    Was it a pop tart handgun? Or a pop tart AR15? Because AR15 pop tarts should be banned and suspension for having such a weapon should be enforced. Limit the making of them to 10 strawberries. Anything above that is dangerous.

    You think there are actually strawberries in strawberry pop tarts? :huh: :laugh:

    Shoosh! Either way the strawberry mystery filling is delicious.

    But that strawberry goo could be really dangerous when fired out of a pop tart gun when it's fresh out of the toaster. I'm pretty sure it could cause 2nd degree burns.

    Only if said hot strawberry goo is aimed directly at the roof of the mouth. Now THAT is dangerous. And tasty. All of a sudden my awesome turkey wrap from lunch seems so much less awesome. :sad:

    The world just becomes more and more ridiculous. If kids make a "gun" out of their thumb and forefinger, I'm wondering how the authorities are going to take that away.

    Yeah, I heard about that and I'm still having nightmares. I get shot and delicious strawberry goo comes out of the hole in my pastry chest! I start eating the goo as my sprinkles begin to fall off and my frosting cracks as my eyes glaze over! It's horrible!


    Is this Pop-Tart porn?

    The real crime is that the kid wasted a Pop-Tart in the first place.

    That's not a gun, it's a stealth bomber . . .

    About a month ago, my 12yo got sent home from school for wearing this shirt:

    The vice-principal sent a letter home with him stating that the shirt was insensitive to the people at Sandy Hook. Of course, we're in Buffalo, so unless he was texting images of the shirt to those kids, I'm not sure how she came to that conclusion.

    I find this funny because all we hear about from the school systems are their concerns for child safety, yet my local school district had kids selling newspapers on street corners all over town this morning during the morning rush hour traffic for fund raising purposes. Unsupervised I might add. Being hit by a car as someone is rushing to work is much more real than being shot by a pop tart gun....

    IT is my right as a red blooded American to own a Pop Tart and if my kids want one too... well than that should be MY decision not the decision of some authoritorian government just looking for ways to take away our Pop Tarts! My father and grand fathers all served in the Military so that we all can have the right to speak freely and own a Pop Tart! IT's tyranny I say!

    I'm wondering when we are going to start seeing the "TRUTH" commecials about guns. They've been running them for a few years now as a way to change societies view on Cigarettes...so next is guns right? That's the new hot button of society I think.

    Lord, I pray to thee, force them to start showing "TRUTH" commecials about Stupid People.

    Amen.

    Seriously for that reason??? Ugh. The dress code in my county doesn't allow clothing with pictures of anything depicting guns, smoking, drugs, sex or alcohol. My cousin was suspended for 3 days when his teacher saw a pink water gun in his backpack that had been given to him earlier that day as a birthday present. He refused to tell where it came from. That wasn't even recent. Oh, and a girl at my kids' elementary school was suspended for saving the life of a fellow student on her bus when she let her use her rescue inhaler. Apparently she should've let her suffocate. Not Pop Tart related, but just as freaking ridiculous. Power to the Pop Tarts!
