"G" Is for Gun...
And a school district in Canada has taken the concept of gun control to a new level. Acting on a complaint from a pacifist couple who have a 7-year-old daughter in the Lombardy Public School, the school system has banned the use of the word "gun." The parents said they were shocked when their daughter came home from school having learned "gun" as an example of a word beginning with the letter "G." "I realize," said the mother, Amanda Sousa, "That people hunt in this area but I don't think that warrants the teaching of the word to my daughter or any other child."
