Yep. They were looking for their 15 minutes of fame and they got it.

They got the reaction they were looking for, also.

Now they have to deal with their decision. Too bad! So sad!

What happens when the school ignores the concerns and complaints it received and the school then gets shot up?

Thats like suggesting a photo of them shooting guns at a gun range and then suggest they should be suspended for shooting guns, clearly that would have been far more threatning as real guns are far more deadly than toys, right?

The children arent at school, the photo is taken at PRIVATE PROPERTY..

Should we suspend kids for driving a car because clearly people die in car accidents...

A school here tried something similar. They quickly backtracked when the lawyers came into it. You're right. It's on private property and therefore the school should have no say whatsoever. I can't imagine such an action by the school would hold up in court.
