‘Pop-Tart’ Case Gun Appeal: School Officials Say The Problem Was Ongoing Misbehavior

School officials who suspended a boy in Anne Arundel County after he chewed his breakfast pastry into the shape of a gun said Tuesday that the second-grader’s removal from school came because of ongoing classroom disruption, not his imaginary weapon.

“We had not been able to make him understand that he had to follow the rules,” testified Sandra Blondell, principal at Park Elementary School, during an appeals hearing that lasted more than six hours in what has become widely known as “the Pop-Tart case.”

Blondell said that the child, then 7 years old and diagnosed with ADHD, received the two-day suspension after repeated problems and lost instructional time. “This must have been probably the 15th or 20th time there was a classroom disruption,” she said.

Pop Tarts should be on the class 1 high explosives list and prohibited from possession except for fully licensed Elementary school students with full security clearance to prevent these Domestic Terrorists from brandishing such weapons at school functions and gatherings!

WE MUST TAKE CONTROL!!!!

Good Lord....
