Quote:A Michigan elementary school is defending its decision to confiscate a third-graders batch of homemade cupcakes because the birthday treats were decorated with plastic green Army soldiers.
Casey Fountain told Fox News that the principal of his son’s elementary school called the cupcakes “insensitive” — in light of the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut.
“It disgusted me,” he said. “It’s vile they lump true American heroes with psychopathic killers.”
Fountain’s wife made a batch of 30 chocolate cupcakes for their son Hunter’s classmates at Schall Elementary School in the town of Caro. The 9-year-old helped decorate the treats with plastic figurines representing World War Two soldiers.
The following morning Fountain said his wife delivered the cupcakes to the front office. The secretary complimented her on the decorations and then took the cakes to Hunter’s class.
“About 15 minutes later the school called my wife and told her the couldn’t serve the cupcakes because the soldiers had guns,” Fountain told Fox News. “My wife told them to remove the soldiers and serve the cupcakes anyway — and I believe she may have used more colorful language.”

Will the kid's name have to be changed from "Hunter" as well.
After all, hunters have guns.

The teachers were hungry. Chocolate cupcakes probably turned up in the lounge that day.
I don't suffer from insanity.
I enjoy every minute of it.

If I could do it all over again, I would have went to college to become a high school history teacher. I am not looking forward to the next generations after me.

Get a masters in education, that's all it will take.
Obviously it has to be a wicked easy degree, look at all the moronic teachers you hear about lately.

All it takes to get that degree is time and money. You also have to suspend common sense to an extent.
Obviously, that's a broad and perhaps unfair generalization, but the degree doesn't automatically make them great teachers. It just gets them a job.
