Daniel J. Mitchell: The Continuing Wimpification of America - Townhall

I?ve reached the point where I can?t even get agitated any more.

The anti-gun ideology in government schools has led to so many stupid incidents that all I can do is shake my head and be thankful my kids somehow were spared this nonsense.

Our latest story comes from Michigan, where a third grader brought some cupcakes to school for his birthday. That seems innocuous, but the boy?s mother (gasp!) decorated them with toy army men.

The school decided ?to remove the Army soldiers from the cupcakes? and called the boy?s family to inform them that they had committed a thought crime.

Last week, Casey Fountain?s third-grade son had a birthday party at his school in Caro. His wife decided to whip up 30 cupcakes for the boy?s classmates. She topped the treats with plastic army guys like the ones countless boys and girls have played with for decades. Fountain says he never thought his innocent act of party planning would lead to controversy. Fountain says the principal of Schall Elementary School called him personally and told him that dressing the cupcakes with soldiers was, in the principal?s words, ?insensitive? considering recent gun-related tragedies.
