Pop Tart Politics
By now you’ve heard of the mouth modified assault pop tart caper. A seven year old Maryland boy was suspended from school for gnawing a pop tart into the shape of a gun.

He turned to the members of his victims’ families and told them he masturbated to the memory and gave them the finger.
I think his prison term will be short.
