Officers arrived, and a staff member reported and recovered a loaded gun that was found in a male student’s backpack. Officers took the weapon.

1. 3year olds shouldn't have access to sharp pencils...

…without supervision -

The parents are idiots and shouldn’t even be parents.

2. The 3 year old needs to defend himself in case of shootings. Arm the kids

More responsible gun owners keeping America safe?

3. A more responsible adult would have handed the three year old boy a loaded AR-15 to take to preschool.

What a wonderful show and tell item to share with his entire class. He would have surely been the most popular kid in his class.

4. Kids getting a good education.

A three year old knows how to load a gun. Very accomplished.
