Same sort of thing happened here a couple of years ago. A 4th grade boy had a small birthday party at his school and handed out small gift bags. The boys' gift bags had a small plastic pistol in them. Teacher didn't do anything but a parent complained and really went off at a school board meeting.
The kid's gift didn't violate any school rules at the time but the board changed the rule to not allow any kind of gun as a result of the complaint. I felt sorry for the kid and his parents. They did not violate any rules but were made to look like some sort of terrorists.
