Streets of Tombstone

Nice to see that can still happen without the “authorities” getting involved. 
 

A few years ago a 5th grader was expelled from a school near me for playing with a toy gun on school property one Sunday.  A nanny-nitwit neighbor called police when she saw two kids playing with a pistol. Police arrived, saw it was clearly a toy and left without doing anything. 
 

Of course the school district got wind of the “incident” and expelled the kid under its “zero-tolerance gun policy”. The kid was an honor student too. Morons!

How about the kid who made a gun with his fingers! He got in trouble and so did the kid who drew a picture of a gun. I think he got suspended 🙄🤪

There was a very young grade schooler who gnawed a gun shape out of a piece of toast. also suspended.  Now Pro football players can get in trouble for the ages old gunfighter's salute! Back 25 or so years ago my son and a couple of friends were playing with capguns in a little park across from the house.  The Karen up the street called the police.  Young cop dramatically drove onto the lawn near them - Wife was working in the front yard flower garden, walked across the street "Can you handle a couple of 10 year olds with toys, or do you need backup?"  No laws broken, no crime, even then, anti freedom.

I read about this kid a couple years ago. Deaf mute. When people talk with their hands they have two options. They can spell the word they want to say, or they can do a motion that everyone knows means that word.

 

This boy's name is Hunter. He chose, as the hand signal that means his name, a finger gun. Thumb up in the air, index finger pointed out, other three fingers curled against the palm.

 

Some teacher at school saw him make that gesture and he got expelled.

 

I think that got changed, but the fact is he got expelled for saying his name.

When visiting Tombstone many years ago my Mother in law bought my step son a set of cap pistols and holsters. We went into an Ice cream parlor near the famous giant rose bush and he started popping off some caps. An older lady came out from the back and told him to leave. "No gunplay in the shop" I told him

"Even Doc Holiday never got thrown out of an Ice cream parlor in Tombstone!"

Surprisingly there are a few people like that in Tombstone. Whoever owns the Boothill Graveyard doesn't even allow guns on the property.

They would never know, unless they are able to do it under the color of law.  Hard to stop being a law abiding citizen late in life.
