5 year old has permanent mark on her record

for discussing a "Bubble Gun" fight with a friend.

"A 5-year-old girl was suspended from school earlier this week after she made what the school called a "terrorist threat."

Her weapon of choice? A small, Hello Kitty automatic bubble blower.

The kindergartner, who attends Mount Carmel Area Elementary School in Pennsylvania, caught administrators' attention after suggesting she and a classmate should shoot each other with bubbles.

"I think people know how harmless a bubble is. It doesn't hurt," said Robin Ficker, an attorney for the girl's family. According to Ficker, the girl, whose identity has not been released, didn't even have the bubble gun toy with her at school."

A bubble glower gun that wasn't even in her possession.  This young girls has had to undergo psychological examination, and has a mark on her record.  Her parents have tried to move her to another school but cannot, because of the mark on her record.

You tell me, if the scared little anti-gunners have one, when a FIVE year old is talking about playing with something that OBVIOUSLY is NOT a weapon, is suddenly charged with making threats with a Non-Weapon.

Heck Adam Savage and Jaimie Hyneman can make a bubble gun that can be REALLY be dangerous.  They've done it on national television.
