12-year-old suspended over toy gun seen in virtual class

On Thursday, Aug. 27, the seventh grader was attending on online art class when a teacher saw Isaiah flash a toy gun across his computer screen. The toy in question is a neon green and black handgun with an orange tip with the words “Zombie Hunter” printed on the side.

The teacher notified the school principal who suspended Isaiah for five days and called the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office to conduct a welfare check on the boy without calling his parents first.

If teachers don't have anything better to do then what are we paying them for?

Teachers like this need to be executed in the town square. Calling a false welfare check (aka swatting) has the potential to be equivalent to murder
