Public education is child abuse

Teachers called the cops on a six-years-old girl with Down syndrome for the horrific action of making a finger gun.

A Pennsylvania elementary school called the police after a kindergartner with Down syndrome made a finger gun at her teacher. Officials concluded there wasn't a threat, but the girl's mother said they went too far.

Maggie Gaines called on the Tredyffrin-Easttown School District to update its threat assessment policy after her 6-year-old daughter Margot was questioned by administrators for making a gun gesture at her elementary school teacher and pretended to shoot her.

I'm shocked that there wasn't a bloodbath.
