A gun that shoots plastic pellets was deemed a serious threat to authorities in a school in Massachusetts, when Jamie Pereira and Tito Velez decided to take the "Cute couple" photograph of themselves posing with an air soft rifle. The school staff was shocked, and immediately suspended the students for a period of ten days. http://blog.sfgate.com/sfmoms/2014/10/29/students-suspended-for-posing-with-airsoft-rifles-on-facebook/The authorities at the school did have a right to be offended, not because of the air soft pellet guns, but because they weren't teaching their students about topics like America's involvement in financing the Third Reich, the terrible atrocities committed under the name of Jesus, how the CIA used American citizens as test subjects for a psychedelic experiment and how LSD was a product of that experiment gone wrong (MK Ultra), how the FBI carried out assassination attempts and sent blackmail threats to civil rights activist Martin Luther King (COINTELPRO), or how Monsanto is sittin their ass inside our entire damn government.

Would these halfwits feel better if they were posing in a shooting range with an instructor watching over them? This is just reinforcing my belief that a lot of Americans are more stupid than your average human being.

This is in line with the trend of local school districts on being very strict about potential school violence, while ignoring the underlying root of the school violence problem. It is also in line with the crazy goals of gun control advocates.
There was a 3rd grader who was suspended for eating a poptart into "the shape of a gun"

Leave it to you to turn this into some sort of conspiracy theory post.
The reality is that the school has no business interfering or imposing their authority on kids or parents out side of school. If the kids took these pictures in school or on school property the school administration would have real grounds to act.

This is really getting out of hand, Recently a five year old girl was suspended from school for a holding a piece of wood and playing robbers and cops with friends at school. What the hell happened to freedom in the USA and i will not be surprised that the very people are taking this too seriously have massive guns at home, people need to loosen up a bit.

If it happened at school the school has the right to make them stop. The school has the responsibility to keep a safe environment and each school can define that differently. The freedom in the USA comes when you're in public areas and mostly when you're in your own home or on your own property. Freedom applies to everyone - so when at school, or a mall, or a business, we all have to respect the freedom of the people we share those spaces with with and the freedom of the person that owns or runs or is responsible for that space. Another example - anyone can preach hate, but a company doesn't have to employ you when you do...the freedom means you don't go to jail.

Unfortunately there are cases when the police take toy guns for real and kill children. I think this is due to the increased number of attacks, but that's no excuse for the cops. On the other hand is better for children to learn that a gun can't be a toy. I would generally forbidden to manufacture toy guns. But that's the theory, but in practice it is a violation of the rights of the child.

I have to agree. Their parents could have been holding the camera; this is not illegal any way that I could see. Hell, this is why we have child hunting licenses, and these aren't even real, to top it all off. I don't get where this was illegal, a breach of moral code, or any kind of endangerment of the minors (again, it's a freaking Airsoft). I get the strong reactions at students and guns in this current political climate, ESP post Columbine, but it seems they overreacted when they shouldn't have acted at all, and then failed to retract

Isn't it required by law that "fake" guns have orange end of the barrel? That's the lw as much as I know and I'm not even american. :/
to be honest, I wouldn't tell that they were fake without reading the text.

I was thinking this too. After that kid got shot semi recently pointing the airsoft at the cop, I thought it was a legal requirement, in fact, for airsoft and pellet guns (even paintball guns). But, these could be pre regulation, they would still be airsoft guns even without the warning tips. Hell, if they were actual guns, you can still do this. They have a right to pose with non illegally owned fire arms.

It is the ultra-liberal leftist San Francisco. What do you expect from a city, where you are supposed to never own a gun and wait and watch while some illegal alien is raping your wife and murdering your kid. That said, these kids should have never posted such pics on their FB account.

I am a supporter of the liberal approach to gun legislation. It seems to me that such a photo is the reason that children do not have prospects of using the weapon and they believe such photos are outstanding. Who would pay attention to these pictures if for each person the weapon is not a toy.

We cannot really understand the depths of their reasoning since we are not living in their country and have not experience the kind of life that they are in. In this regard the school may have a good a reason for suspending the students for 10 days and it is not really a big deal of a punishment. This is done by the school probably for the sake of the children and their beliefs.

They will recognize the other details first, like face color.

I wish I could agree with you. But even while I am a strong advocate for gun rights, this picture was deeply disturbing, even for me. They are kids, and they should have fun. But posting such images in social media is not the right thing.

These toys, because that's what bb guns are, can be bought from your local Walmart by anyone over the age of twelve. So they took a picture, in their livingroom, with their new toys. Who cares?
