An 8-year-old Maryland boy who was suspended from school for nibbling a pastry snack into the shape of a gun has been given a junior membership in the National Rifle Association.
After hearing about Josh Welch’s suspension from Park Elementary School in Anne Arundel County, a state legislator paid $550 to buy him a Junior Life Membership in the NRA, Welch’s lawyer said on Thursday.
“I was embarrassed that my county would do that to him,” said Nicholaus Kipke, leader of the Republican minority in the lower house of the Maryland legislature. He presented the gift to the second-grader Wednesday night.
The boy’s lawyer, Robin Ficker, said he is appealing the two-day school suspension that started on March 1 when Welch ate away part of his Pop-Tart during class snack time so that it resembled a gun shape.

There’s an “Omen” in there, somewhere (if you can properly identify who is the real “evil child” in the story).
Eeeek! Don’t let him anywhere near a sandwich.
What’s really incredible is that an 8 year old already has a lawyer, and that his parents feel he needs one. In what overly law submitted world have we come to live in?
Your Honour, they’ve given no reason to be shown respect – only the opposite.
