Army Mom Banished from School: “The principal is scared of you”

Georgia schools seem to have been overrun by easily frightened administrators. First there was the case of the young man facing felony charges for possession of a loaded tackle box. More recently, there was the girl who faces felony charges because she opted to slice her food as opposed to gnawing on a large hunk of meat.

Now a veteran of the US Army and legal concealed weapon permit holder has caused terror and been forbidden on school property. A mom in Hepzibah, Georgia reports that her daughter’s school principal has targeted her because her veteran status and because of a Facebook picture that shows her new concealed carry permit. Apparently her willingness and ability to protect country and family makes her a threat to the timid administrator.

Tanya Mount is one of those extremely involved parents that you would think schools would cherish. Instead, according to Mount, the principal of McBean Elementary School, which was formerly attended by her daughter, wanted her to butt out. At a meeting between the active parent volunteer and the principal, Janina Dallas, animosity was apparent. “She told me that instead of volunteering at the school and playing on the play ground with my daughter I need to be at home doing grown up things,” stated Mount.

But the story gets worse than this insulting conversation…much worse.

It seems that Principal Dallas is not one to let that pesky Second Amendment get in her way. Last Wednesday she had Mount visited by the Richmond County Board of Education police and given a written warning of criminal trespass.

“I feel like a criminal. I want I want to be heard. I want a public apology,” says Mount. On Wednesday, Mount says she was handed a notice from Richmond County Board of Education police.

“He tells me that were going to issue you a criminal trespass warning,” says Mount. The notice banned her from McBean Elementary School where her disabled daughter attends.

She asked what she did wrong. “The principal is scared of you and she doesn’t want you on the grounds. I ask for what? And he asks were you in the Army and I said yes. He’s like do you have a concealed weapons permit? I said yes,” says Mount.

Mount who is a parent volunteer says she is banned from the school for posting a picture of her new concealed weapons permit on her Facebook page. (source)

Mount, not surprisingly, has removed her daughter from McBean Elementary School.
