Louisiana AG investigates school for suspending 4th grader after teacher noticed BB gun during online class

The attorney general for Louisiana launched an investigation Friday into a public elementary school for suspending a Black fourth-grader after his teacher noticed a BB gun in his room during an online class.

The Jefferson Parish Public school system said Ka Mauri Harrison brandished the BB gun during the virtual class on Sept. 11 and was suspended because he violated an in-class instruction policy. A school behavior report obtained by the Associated Press said Ka Mauri was taking a test with his computer muted when his brother walked into the room and tripped over the BB gun that was lying on the floor. The brothers share a room.

The teacher tried waving at him to get his attention, but his computer was muted because he was taking a test. He was then kicked out of the class video conference. He faced expulsion, but was ultimately forced to spend nearly two weeks in at-home suspension.

This is so odd. The kid picked up and moved a weapon so no one tripped over it. I get not wanting a gun in the online class. But there are lots of ways to handle this besides suspension.

white ppl can walk around strapped with their guns black ppl can’t without being a threat or getting shot a white boy can have his BB gun in the background a black boy cant he’s suspended this is AMERIKKKA

Absurd
