This kid dared to say that he's like to be able to defend his friends against bad guys... himself.
That's an attitude the liberal government cannot tolerate or leave alone. And it isn't going to.
Wait till this kid has to fill out his first Income Tax form, and/or apply for a tax exemption.
He hasn't even BEGUN to feel the pressure the state can bring onto him.

WMAL : Where Washington Comes to Talk - WMAL EXCLUSIVE: 11-Yr-Old Suspended From School For Merely TALKING About Guns
11-Yr-Old Suspended From School For Merely TALKING About Guns

OWINGS, MD -- The father of a middle schooler in Calvert County, Md. says his 11-year-old son was suspended for 10 days for merely talking about guns on the bus ride home.
Bruce Henkelman of Huntingtown says his son, a sixth grader at Northern Middle School in Owings, was talking with friends about the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre when the bus driver hauled him back to school to be questioned by the principal, Darrel Prioleau.
"The principal told me that with what happened at Sandy Hook if you say the word 'gun' in my school you are going to get suspended for 10 days," Henkelman said in an interview with WMAL.com.
So what did the boy say? According to his father, he neither threatened nor bullied anyone.
"He said, I wish I had a gun to protect everyone. He wanted to defeat the bad guys. That's the context of what he said," Henkelman said. "He wanted to be the hero."
The boy was questioned by the principal and a sheriff's deputy, who also wanted to search the family home without a warrant, Henkelman said. "He started asking me questions about if I have firearms, and [the deputy said] he's going to have to search my house. Search my house? I just wanted to know what happened."
No search was performed, and the deputy left Henkelman's home after the father answered questions in a four-page questionnaire issued by the Sheriff's Office.
Principal Darrel Prioleau did not respond to calls and emails seeking comment.
