Children at Park Elementary School went home with a letter today explaining there was a disruption in school.

Seven year old Josh Welch, and his father, say the disruption lead to a two day suspension for the second grader in Brooklyn Park.

Academics are hard for Josh, who suffers from ADHD, but he excels in art class.

It is Josh's own creativity that may have gotten him into trouble. At Park Elementary school, Josh was enjoying his breakfast pastry when he decided to try and shape it into a mountain.

Josh said, "It was already a rectangle and I just kept on biting it and biting it and tore off the top and it kinda looked like a gun but it wasn't." Josh takes full responsibly for trying to shape his breakfast pastry, but admits it was in innocent fun.
He told FOX45, "All I was trying to do was turn it into a mountain but, it didn't look like a mountain really and it turned out to be a gun kinda."

When his teacher saw the strawberry tart he knew he was in trouble, he recalls, "She was pretty mad...and I think I was in big trouble."

Josh's dad received a phone call from the school saying that Josh has been suspended for two days because he took his breakfast pastry and fashioned it into a gun.

Josh's dad was astounded to learn the school chose such a harsh punishment, even after no one was hurt.

Late Friday afternoon a letter went home with students explaining the incident saying, "A student used food to make an inappropriate gesture."

But Josh's dad is not happy saying, "I would almost call it insanity. I mean with all the potential issues that could be dealt with at school, real threats, bullies, whatever the real issue is, it's a pastry.., Ya know?"

Josh just wishes he could go back to class, but maintains a good sense of humor through the whole debacle saying, "I didn't get to eat all my breakfast, so, really I am still hungry."

Comment: Further confirmation, as if we already needed it, that the United States of America is certifiably insane. Between his sense of humor and his basic human intelligence (a vanishingly rare thing these days), Josh will no doubt soon be labelled with Oppositional defiant disorder. Long may he 'suffer' from it, because at this rate, he'll be one of the few to emerge from our collective dystopian nightmare with his mind still intact.





The suspicious pastry was immediately quarantined while school administrators checked that it was not loaded and in safety-off mode
mmmm...pastry!

Get 'em before the gov't pulls 'em from the shelves.

This is how stupid things have become. I would have gotten into alot of trouble in high school. I made my own comic books and drew many weapons.


Going to public school in Washington DC: Junior High, we made 'zip guns' in Metal shop classes; most were fitted for .22 shorts and longs. Lots of gangs in those days...In High School, unplugged rifle barrels of the M1's and M14's that we used as Cadets. Several gun fights during the year and a few duels with our swords. Some injured but not fatally. 3 or 4 teachers shot by angry students in one year usually over grade scores; one died...One teacher suspended for making moonshine in Wood shop class and getting some students drunk...nice schoolsrofl

Let's just suspend society...





That poptart should have been an object lesson.

Teachers are supposed to teach and inform students.

But instead some are geared toward "teaching-them-a-lesson"

as themselves are becoming "informants".

whoa
