This is pathetic.

Boy takes toy plastic gun to school and teachers feel threatened and call the Police.

That's an airsoft and kids aren't supposed to have them.

Not a toy.

So much more to that story than is being reported clearly!

If he's only supposed to have the "toy" out in one lesson why were 3 seperate teachers threatened?

No children would be suspended/excluded over a single incident like this and given the name and the mention of ADHD I'd wager this is the latest in a long line of incidents

Sounds like Mum isnt too helpful either

Reading between the lines, kid has ADHD, among other learning difficulties.....or more likely is a pain in the ass and this is a reason to get shot of him.

He'd be safe with it. He's cross-eyed so he'd never hit anything he was looking at.

So is it an air pistol, a pellet gun or a ball bearing gun? The story says it doesn't fire but all of these fire something.

An airsoft pistol?

The article states that it does not fire or make a noise?

Or am I missing something?

Plastic pellets, powered by a spring.

Can break glass at 10-15 metres. Receipt for replacement window on our summerhouse testifies to this...

Used to have to work with someone who gave his son that name.

He was a real idiot (the father).

Can't remember the exact lines:

'Who employed this man?'

'Me sir, he's my cousin.'

'He could be prosecuted for not being in school'.



Mag: 'why isn't this child in school?'

' The school sent him home '.
