A bubble gun, that is.
A 5-year-old in Colorado is in hot water for bringing a gun to school. A toy bubble gun. The girl's mother—Emma, no last name given—said that she didn't know her daughter had stashed the plastic toy in her backpack. She says she was shocked when the school called and told her to pick the kindergartner up. "Could we have a warning?" she says. "It blows bubbles." But the school is standing its ground, saying in a statement that "despite the student's age and type of item, this suspension is consistent with our district policy," adding that other students have received one-day suspensions for similar infractions, such as packing Nerf guns.
