So many of the toys and such that kids brought openly to school in my day would get a kid instantly expelled now. Hell, I must have carried a pocketknife from 7th grade onward. Somehow, we survived. Hell, a kid can get expelled now for pointing a finger at another kid in an ostensible "pistol" position. And some people wonder how the evil Right is able to leverage the term "woke" so effectively.

The Evil Right is exactly why we can no longer let a kid bring anything that could hurt someone to school.

Then you need to re-read my previous comment for comprehension. All kids are allowed to bring their fingers to school, or didn't you know that?
@ClaraListensprechen4 I specifically mentioned the finger pointing example. Not an exaggeration, such cases are documented.
