PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Christan Morales said her son just wanted to honor American troops when he wore a hat to school decorated with an American flag and small plastic Army figures.
But the school banned the hat because it ran afoul of the district's zero-tolerance weapons policy. Why? The toy soldiers were carrying tiny guns.

When this kind of stupidity is allowed in our schools we are doing exactly what the character in An American Carol said, "Teaching a generation of students to hate their own country"
This idiot should be fired and never work in education again.
