The pop tart incident was mind numbingly dumb. That aside, toy guns are actually things that look like guns.
It is apparently a matter of some debate as to whether an electronics project involving a battery and some wires, looks like a bomb.
It doesn't look like a bomb to me. It looks like a timer.
Now, timers can be attached to bombs, this is true. But so can a watch. Or a cell phone. Or a laptop. So should all kids who bring a watch, call phone or laptop also be suspended for bringing a Bomb-like object to school?
A little boy got in serious trouble for bringing in a Lego gun from one of those TINY action Lego figures. The gun was maybe the size of a man's thumbnail. How on earth could anyone mistake that as a real gun? The school went WAY over the top on this, yes. The engineering teacher's word should have held. But to justify the idea of a tiny little toy gun or a pop tart gun, while panning this incident exposes the real reason why pop-tart guns matter - indoctrination.
#poptartgunsmatter? Good luck with that incoherent nonsense.
So you admit this is all about 'the feels'?
Apparently you feel like circuit boards look like bombs.
Even the biggest idiot in America knows that a bomb needs explosive. Where is the explosive?

"As much as the parents want this case to be about a 'gun,' it is, rather, a case about classroom disruption from a student who has had a long history of disruptive behavior," Nussbaum wrote in his opinion, which was dated June 26, the Washington Post reported. He asserted that the suspension came as a result of disciplinary problems the boy had, and not just because of what he did with the breakfast pastry.
"Had the student chewed his cereal bar into the shape of a cat and ran around the room, disrupting the classroom and making 'meow' cat sounds, the result would have been exactly the same," Nussbaum wrote, according to the Post.

How would we know? I can say that my son was recently stopped and questioned by the TSA about his toothpaste, which was then confiscated.
