Brickbat: Bad Assignment

Ramsey McDonald got what he thought was a fun assignment from his fourth-grade teacher: Bring some of your favorite toys to school and talk about them. Among the toys be brought to Miller Elementary School in Warner Robins, Georgia, was a Nerf gun. Yeah, you guessed what happened. He was given a three-day suspension, which was later reduced to a two-day in-school suspension, for bringing a weapon to school.
