A Columbus Ohio fifth
grader has been suspended from school for three days for pretending to shoot a
classmate with his fingers.
Nathan Entingh said Tuesday he was "just playing
around." His father was stunned by the suspension.
"Why his punishment was this excessive because I've known
these kids around here in school nowadays that get in fights and they aren't
suspended for that long," Paul Entingh said. "But for him to make his
fingers into a gun and be suspended for three days, I just don't understand it.
School officials adopted zero tolerance policies after a string of
school shootings across the country.
