A New Jersey second-grader's drawing of a stick figure shooting a gun has earned him a one-day school suspension.
Seven-year-old Kyle Walker's mom told an The Press newspaper of Atlantic City that her son was suspended for violating the district's zero-tolerance policy on guns. She said her son told her he'd drawn a water pistol.
Kyle gave the picture to another child on the school bus, and that child's parents complained about it to school officials.
The case is not the first in New Jersey in which students were suspended for depictions of weapons.
Four kindergarten boys were suspended in 2000 for playing cops and robbers, even though they were using their fingers as guns.
