7-Year-Old Boy Reportedly Suspended for Making ‘Gun’ Out of School Pastry

Mar. 2, 2013 5:04pm Erica Ritz

7 Year Old Josh Welch Suspended for Making a Gun Out of School Dessert

(Photo: Fox45)

A 7-year-old student at Park Elementary School in Baltimore has been suspended for two days after playing with his food at school, Fox45 reports.

The interesting part of the story? The child didn’t get in trouble for neglecting his manners, as some may have assumed — he was allegedly suspended because the “mountain” he was trying to make ended up looking like a gun.

Fox 45 relates:

Academics are hard for Josh [Welch], who suffers from ADHD, but he excels in art class. It is Josh’s own creativity that may have gotten him into trouble.

At Park Elementary school, Josh was enjoying his breakfast pastry when he decided to try and shape it into a mountain.

Josh said, “It was already a rectangle and I just kept on biting it and biting it and tore off the top and it kinda looked like a gun but it wasn’t.”

Josh takes full responsibly for trying to shape his breakfast pastry, but admits it was in innocent fun. He told FOX45, “All I was trying to do was turn it into a mountain but, it didn’t look like a mountain really and it turned out to be a gun kinda.”

When his teacher saw the strawberry tart he knew he was in trouble, he recalls, “She was pretty mad…and I think I was in big trouble.”

Josh’s dad received a phone call from the school saying that Josh has been suspended for two days because he took his breakfast pastry and fashioned it into a gun. Josh’s dad was astounded to learn the school chose such a harsh punishment, even after no one was hurt. [Emphasis added]

Fox News has more on the story:

Lately, children across the country have been suspended for making “gun signs” with their hands, throwing make-believe grenades at pretend “evil forces” during a “save the world” game at recess, or even threatening to shoot bubbles at a classmate with a Hello Kitty gun.

In this case, the Baltimore-area school reportedly sent home a letter with the students explaining that Welch had used his food to make “inappropriate gestures.”

“I would almost call it insanity,” the boy’s father said incredulously.

He added with a laugh: “It’s a pastry, you know?”

  In 7th grade I got thunked in the head for using my spoon to canon mashed potatoes across the table at some of my fellow classmates. By my algebra teacher who must have been the guard that day. It wasn’t my fault of course, the devil made me do it. And now kindergartners get sent home for just being kids. No one can convince me that back to the future wouldn’t be a nice place to be. Thanks all you greedy, power hungry, immoral, damn liberals. Spoilers.

  Thank goodness it was still LEGAL and NORMAL for a boy to own a Johnny Seven OMA (One Man Army) toy gun when I was a kid. Got mine for Christmas and had a fun time with my friends playing “Army” with it in the 60′s. Back then kids had to use their imaginations, play outside until dinner, and drink water from the garden hose.

  “7-Year-Old Boy Reportedly Suspended for Making ‘Gun’ Out of School Pastry”
  
  Now, now, don’t be too hard on the school Progressives(commies) teacher and Principle. They (almost always females) probably don’t know what a REAL GUN looks like. Just go in with a POP-TART and your GUN and give them a demonstration. “See? Pop-tart “shaped-while-eating” like a gun … yummm! REAL GUN … BANG! See the difference? Now go apologize to my son, bitches.”

  What are these idiot people trying to do to our children? It was a piece of pastry, kinda like the little paper cut-out of the shape of a gun (kinda ) or pointing a finger with the thumb up…… OMG, this Nation is going to hell in a hand basket the way they’re scaring these little children, kinda like the adults have been given the scare tactic lies from our government because we want to CUT the spending.
  Home school your children, send to a Christian school, whatever you can to get away from these crazy people who are ruining your little ones with lies and phony excuses to expel decent kids.

  Was it a semi auto pop tart or an “automatic” like the ones found on the streets of Chicago. How many strawberries in the fruity center? (code word for magazine) Did it look scary enough to make the banned pop tart list? Some people will tell you that pop tarts are ok for hunting, heck o even uses them “all the time ” at Camp David. We know what the founders intended though. From my cold dead fingers!!!! pires morgan wants to hold Kelloggs responsible but that’s just silly.

  You hit the nail on the head. Anyone who hasn’t seen the clip of Eric Holder years ago talking about how we have to brainwash kids please watch this about 20 times right now:
  
  /watch?v=gYyqBxD-3xw
  
  a commenter down the page also touched on something important; the ADD angle. There has been a war against boys waging in our society for 2 decades. Boys that don’t want to sit at a desk for 8 hours must have a major brain malfunction. How dare they want to get up and use their hands and move around. They are supposed to sit there and listen to their young female teacher drone on and on.
  
  I haven’t pulled my kids out of public school. I moved them to a part of the country where that is not necessary. We moved here specifically because their school was becoming an “IB world school”, which is a U.N. funded communism training facility, look it up! Our public school here is still singing Christian songs at Christmas believe it or not. I am thinking however that I’m going to have my son spend all of next week trying to successfully fashion his vegetables into something resembling a M82a1 just to test the waters.

  You can’t say Pop Tart in public schools because “POP” sounds like gunfire. And Pop Tarts have sugar in them which is an evil white powder that counteracts ridilin and might cause lower brain function and physical energy in children which teachers can’t deal with nowadays.

All that teacher was responsible to do was tell the boy that he should eat his pastry and not play
with the food. If the teacher had a level head. A follow up conservatiom with the parent(s) would
have been the responsible thing to do, especially, if the boy had ADHD. It is the parents responsibility
to talk to their kid and tell them to be careful what they say and do because there are some adults
that are high strung and do not understand a child’s creativity.

  Teachers and school district authorities go ape-wild because a kid fashions what they feel is a gun out of paper or pastry? Are you kidding me?
  Teachers and school districts turn a blind eye when one of their own is arrested or accused of child molestation and don’t seem to care about that. It seems like once a week local news has a story of a teacher caught molesting a child in the Southern California area. Most of them must not care anymore because maybe it’s become the norm for them.

  Your reply is worse than the story. Conform my A55. You are saying the parents should tell their child to stop being a child for fear of the gestapo? This attitude is precisely why these stories keep recurring. Stop it. Home school, tax revolt until they replace the people running schools like SS training camps. This is America for Gods sake stop bending to this madness. Or shut up and live on your knees in fear.
  
  They are brainwashing your children, destroying their free will, and this nations future. The child clearly stated He was not trying to make something appear to be a weapon. We are talking about food here. When in the hell are you parents going to organize by the millions and put a stop to the agenda being forced down your children’s throats?
  
  When are you going to stop flying until sanity is restored in the airports? When are you going to stop buying all products advertised on left wing media outlets, DVD’s, or going to movies, until you remove the money the left is using to turn this nation into Hitler’s Germany? The people organized with this agenda nationwide are playing for real, playing for keeps. High time you all realize this and stop with the jokes and treating this all so lightly. Clearly few of you fully comprehend the total scope of what is being done to all citizens in what used to be a free Republic. The next generation is being trained to willingly agree with this tyranny. Will you?

  Usually I say that yes the parents and the teachers must work as a team. In this case though, I can’t say that. You were right, the MOST the teacher ‘should have’ said was we eat the food, we don’t ‘play’ with it. Instead this teacher has to falsely accuse the kid of ‘creating a gun’.

  What is going on in America? Chairman obama is throwing a fit and releasing thousands of illegal immigrant hard core felons and blaming it on the republicans and the sequester. he is also following suit with the anti-gun garbage. exactly like Hitler, chairman “O” posed with a group of children and is trying to get guns banned. The schools are following right along with our “dear leader”. One school suspended a child for bring a piece of paper shaped like a gun to school and the latest is a child that bit his strawberry pop tart into the shape of a gun. He got suspended for 2 days. I fear socialism (communism) is here. The fools are walking among us and they are ignoring our constitution!

Before everyone jumps to conclusions the government needs to spend millions maybe billions on a study to see how many innocent children have been mowed down with pastries. I think while they’re at it they should limit the number of strawberries a pastry can hold. While I’m at it I’d like to protest children eating animal shaped cookies and I’d like to see the spca get involved. It makes just as much sense….

Alright .. this story is about this small innocent child peacefully eating his lunch .. when a teacher showing a blatant disregard, of common sense. That teacher should be suspended from further duties .. this is exactly why no one can let teachers completely control your child’s learning, and teaching agendas. When teachers get totally out of-hand like this one demonstrated, I would do everything I could to make sure she lost her job. No question about it … Talk about paranoia, .. sheesh. Kind-of makes you wonder what else is going on in the class room .. doesn’t it?

  civilwarcometh…..not in Milwaukee,Wi.
  The FIRST thing that gets thrown out is the gun charge in the plea bargain. EVERY TIME. If they actually let those gun charges stand, Milwaukee would be a far safer place to be.

Has anyone else noticed it seems to be always a white kid that gets suspended for stupid crap like this?

  It seems that way, but it’s not. I remember a couple years back when they arrested and handcuffed a four year old black girl and took her to jail because the morons in charge didn’t know how to control her. A FOUR year old!!!!!

  Yeah, why is that? I bet they don’t suspend any kids from the south side of chicago. They probably have a hard enough time just getting them to attend, let alone sending them home for such a minor infraction of possessing a real gun. With all the murders there, I would not be surprised to learn there is a mandatory class called cap an ass 101.

  Hey Monk…
  
  Ziti does resemble a miniature barrel, now that i think about it.
  
  where does this “zero-tolerance” nonsense end?
  Can they use glue guns in art class?
  Can the custodians use caulk guns?
  Can teachers hand out work-sheets that include “bullet points”?
  
  Next thing you know, a teacher will walk in on a kid using the urinal & have him suspended because his pe*ker “resembled” a gun.
  
  Guess the white-washed jean- jacket i used to wear with the Guns n Roses patch on the back would make me persona-non-grata in schools nowadays.

He should have used Devil’s Food cake mix instead of Angel Food.

WELCOME to the New World Order…emasculate our sons, vilify any weapons, and teach that opposing the government is wrong…George Orwell predicted something like this in “1984.” Next the Thought police will be by here to “vaporize” me! (This text will be disappeared) F-ing Krazy!

  Yes, welcome to Amerika! Or, welcome to Ameritopia!
  
  Everything our Founding Fathers were trying to prevent, happening right before our eyes, with 80% of the country blind… nothing for us to do but prepare. Let the lib-tards kill each other after the fall, we will be better off in the long run.

  Thought Police are here already. Seattle Police Dept. is working with software that predetermines where crime will occur.

Whoever suspended this kid for making a pastry “gun” deserves a pie in the face.

  No they need to be FIRED. The teacher that had NO common sense that brought this whole thing to the attention of the school needs to go and NEVER be allowed to teach again. The School District who put these kinds of rules in place should all be FIRED and the people should elect individuals that do have some common sense and can tell the difference between a “Threat” and a “Pastry”. IDIOTS!!!

  C’mon, this is called intervention, if gone unpunished this kid could “move on” to fashioning a shank out of a pretzel. These quick thinking adults probably saved this child from a life of crime…

  Pretzels are only dangerous if they have salt. Bloomberg said so.
