A 5 year old kid was threatened with suspension by school officials in Massachusetts after he made a small toy gun out of lego bricks and started to play-shoot his classmates. Joesph Cardosa was given a written warning by officials at Hyannis West Elementary School, Cape Cod, when he fashioned the "crude" toy in after school program, the young lad was told that if he does this again he would be suspended for 2 weeks.
Cardosa's parents reacted by accusing the school administrators of over-reacting. His mother Sheila Cruz told Fox 5 news in Boston: "Kids are taught, here's a squirt gun, this is fun" so this is fun to him... he's running around playing" adding that instead of threatening the kid with punishments teachers should have redirected him to another activity. "It's not like he's designing a machine gun,"his mother said,as the kid built another "gun" which looked like a stick, as an example for reporters. The parents have said he was punished before for making a gun gesture with this hand. "We were running around.. we were just pretending"said the young lad. Despite media attention, the school held its position by releasing the following statement to Fox 5:
"While someone might think that making a Lego gun us just an action of a 5 year old, to other 5 year olds, that might be a scary experience"
This is not the first case of this.. The hysteria over Sandy Hook is sweeping across the American education system. Yesterday Infowars.com reported an incident between to kids over a nerf gun that caused a lockdown and armed police response at two elementary schools in the Bronx area of New York, Earlier this month actually a high school in Long Island, NY was placed on lockdown for over 6 hours in response to a student carrying a damn nerf gun.. also there was another incident of a 5 year old girl who was suspended after being grilled for 3 hours and was labelled a "terrorist threat" when she bought a PINK BUBBLE GUN to school!!! and the article documents many more of these things
Reps from the toy gun industry have reacted to the backlash against the well over 16 billion dollar industry. The CMO of Hasbro John Frascotti, which makes the nerf guns said "Nerf is all about active play and active fun. If you ask kids as young as when they're able to play, up through parents and grandparents, everyone understands these are just toys... They understand this is play and this is fun, and I think to try and confuse it and meld it into a whole bunch of other things in this political discourse that's going on, may be just bad"
In another statement the Toy Industry Association noted the following: "Toys themselves do not promote aggressive behavior. There is no violent or nonviolent toys. Quite often, military and other role-play items may help kids work through or cope with what is happening in the world around them through play rather than through outwardly aggressive behavior"
Even psychologist Michael Thompson agreed noting that "Blaming toy guns for adult make violence or mass shooting defies common sense. "Banning toy guns would be misguided, silly even delusional. It would have no impact on our rate of adult violence. Healthy boys know the difference between pretend play and actually hurting someone. Playing heroic hunt-and-chase game is something boys have done forever. They have done it with sticks and balls and they do it with toy guns. It often represents the best of boys: their desire to be strong, heroic and to stand up for what is right, to protect their homes and kill villains."
My take is this is another example of the elite social engineers want to see gone within our society as a whole while in the video below the article Alex Jones explains how they are all to willing to send women off to military combat zones and another example of the nanny state that is out of control. I agree with Michael Thompson's quotes that banning these toy guns would be incredibly delusional and would have no impact on what an actual criminal does..
http://www.infowars.com/medical-excise-tax-on-retail-receipts-show-how-were-screwed-by-obamacare/ (Note: after Infowars posted this story, they discovered the receipt at the sporting goods store known as Cabela's has explained the excise tax addition to receipts was a "glitch" and did not reflect on the retail outlet to highlight business funding Obamacare. However the team at Infowars.com believe it was a good example to demonstrate how Obamacare is nothing more than a tax scheme to further bankrupt the American people) An Infowars reader sent an image of a sales receipt at Cabela's, a really popular sporting goods store. The receipt which is pictured on the left side of the article spells out what Obama and the rest of the federal government wants the American people not to know- the middle class is being taxed the shit out of despite all the rhetoric from the establishment Democrats who are using class warfare as an excuse to sell their criminal confiscatory tax policies. The email states the following: "The 2.3% Medical Excise Tax that began on January 1st is supposed to be "hidden" from the consumer, by it's been brought to the public's attention by hunting and fishing store Cabela's who have refused to hude it and are showing it is a separate line item on their tax receipts"
Of Course CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times and other establishment types who like to make excuses for government theft naturally would never expose this hidden heavy dose of taxes that are hidden in Obamacare. An example is as of January 1st: "an egregious tax is levied on people who use things like corrective lenses or hearing aids. Democrats need these kinds of taxes to pay for their "free" healthcare scam. If you wear glasses, get ready to pay an additional 2.3%"
Peter Roff wrote that "Obamacare is very, very expensive. More expensive than advertised in fact. To put it simply, Congress needed the money they expected the tax to generate to pay for the program. Which just goes to show there is no such thing as "free healthcare"
in 2013 the rich: read well off people enough to be able to hide their cash offshore or in so called "philanthropic" foundations-will get reamed badly and in addition to capital gains from rising taxes(from 15% to 18.8%) there "will be an additional 0.9% on earned income in excess of $250,000 for families and $200,000 for individuals to help pay for Medicare Part A, which covers hospital stays, nursing facilities and hospice care-reports Alex Rogers a writer at Time
Newsmax reported back in June that this was "one of the largest tax increases in American history" and "Obamacare contains 20 new or higher taxes on American families and small business"
Many of the taxes buried in the bill include excise taxes on charitable hospitals, taxes on innovator drug companies, new taxes on Blue Cross/Blue shield and other taxes that will be passed on to you the consumer and many of the taxes have nothing to do with healthcare at all as the article points out for example taxes on biofuel and tanning!!!
It is a very good article and a reminder of how The US continues to be screwed by the corrupt federal government and also Employers that have 50 employees who do not conform to the Obamacare mandate will be forced to pay additional tax of $2,000 DOLLARS FOR EVERY WORKER!!!!
What a scam indeed...
