5-Year-Old Boy Suspended for Cowboy Cap Gun, Interrogated Until He Wet His Pants

In a shocking display of the anti gun hysteria now plaguing public schools through the country, the Washington Post is reporting that a 5-year-old boy from Calvert County, Maryland was suspended for the rest of the year after bringing a toy gun onto his school bus.

The boy was also integrated by school officials for over two hours which caused the child to wet his pants in fear.

The child was questioned for more than two hours before his mother was called, she said, adding that he uncharacteristically wet his pants during the episode. The boy is 5 — “all bugs and frogs and cowboys,” his mother said.

According to the family, the boy’s friend had brought a water gun on the bus a day earlier. On Wednesday, unbeknown to his parents, the boy stowed his cap gun — from Frontier Town near Ocean City — inside his backpack as he left for school.

He told his mother after the incident that he had “really, really” wanted to show his friend.

The mother was called by the principal at 10:50 a.m. and was told that her son had the cap gun and pretended to shoot someone on the bus. She said that both the kindergartner and his first-grade sister, sitting nearby on the bus, disputed that account.

For the family, a major concern is the long period the 5-year-old was questioned without parental guidance or support. His sister was questioned, too, she said.

“The school was quite obviously taking it very seriously, and he’s 5 years old,” she said. “Why were we not immediately contacted?”

The family’s attorney, Robin Ficker, said that the age of the child is important and that the incident could have been used as a teachable moment.

This anti gun hysteria will continue as long as the corporate controlled media and elements of the federal government continue to push their gun control agenda by using dead children and family members as props for their political ambitions.
