You missed the January incident where a 5th grader was reprimanded for pulling a piece of paper out of her pocket that had a corner torn out of it so that it resembled a gun. A fellow student reported that she had the piece of paper, so she was searched. The school official yelled at the girl, threatened to call the police and told her she could be arrested. Her classmates called her a murderer. That sounds like bullying to me - what happened to THAT 'zero tolerance' policy?
Torn paper is dangerous too!
