"Carlson said she was not happy with her son for having the shell casing, which everyone agrees he should not have had at school."

Well why the **** not? It's a few grams of harmless brass. What would the principle do if the kid was toting a trumpet? Or a tuba?

I agree with the mother's statement that the principal made the wrong call, but I don't agree when she said they're punishing her son for being a boy - my daughter is one of many 'girls' who enjoy shooting.
They're punishing him because 'zero tolerance' is unreasonable. Life isn't black OR white, but [as Robert Earl Keen said] shades of gray.
