8-year-old Asher Palmer, a special needs boy, was recently suspended from school for rolling up a piece of paper ‘like a gun’ and pointing it at other students.
The Lang School in New York, which is private bastion with an annual tuition of $51,500, specializes in students with language difficulties.
“Asher is exactly the type of student Lang is supposed to be serving,” states Melina Spadone, the boy’s mother. “Why they did this doesn’t make sense.”
It doesn’t make sense because it’s yet another case of the ridiculous vilification of guns by the left – seeking to ‘educate’ a culture that guns are ‘horrifying’.

She was incensed that Principal Micaela Bracamonte told other staffers in an email that Asher “had a model for physically aggressive behavior in his immediate family.’’
Spadone thinks Bracamonte was referring to her husband because he served in the military during the Kuwait war. If that was the reason for the comment, she said, “I find it offensive and inappropriate.’’
As far as the toy gun is concerned, she said Asher, a first-year student, made it out of a piece of paper after discussing military weapons with his dad. His teachers told him not to point it at anyone, and he obeyed for a while.
The school claimed Asher also said he’d “kill’’ a girl in a separate incident — a typical argument between youngsters. While her son may have made the threat, Spadone said, people use the word “kill’’ all the time, and it shouldn’t be taken literally.
Spadone, who lives in Hell’s Kitchen, said the private school in lower Manhattan is supposed to help with social-behavioral issues of kids like Asher, who has been diagnosed with ADHD and problems communicating.

No different than Public Schools that demean children to break down their spirit in an attempt to make them feel like outcasts. They want to break them down into little sheep with no individuality, and become controllable and not act like the way children are supposed to act. There will be LONG TERM Psychological Damage if Parents don’t stand up against the mental ABUSE their children are receiving in OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM.
so true
shame on that school!
Sickening, What happened to the days of kids being kids and just make believing! What happened to cops and robbers, cowboys and Indians?
The world is full of dumb $#%&!@* …. and this is just one of them .
Hello everyone out there, i’m Sharon Clark from the states and i wanna use this opportunity to share a testimony about a great prophet who saved my relationship with my boyfriend. 2 years ago my boyfriend and i were both so much in love with each other, we were best friends and very intimate. To cut the long story short, he changed suddenly and started acting up, i tried all my best to know why he changed so suddenly but i later found out that she found another girl. I was so depressed and hopeless until one day that i was surfing the internet and saw a girl make a comment about a great prophet named Prophet Ogundele on how he saved her relationship. At first i believed it wasn’t real but i had no choice than to give it a shot, so i contacted this wise man and explained what the problem was and he told me to calm down that he’s gonna help me and i did as he said and he later got back to me that i should be expecting his call in 48 hours time. To my greatest surprise my phone rang and couldnt believe it was my boyfriend, i was so amazed because it’s been years i heard from him and he apologized and Confessed to me. so i accepted him and now we are planning to get married. So i’m using this medium to tell anyone that needs help in any way to contact him on ([email protected]
