Paul Rosenzweig and Trent England in National Review provide a small catalogue of the latest criminal mini-monsters busted by this well-thought-out policy:
? An 8-year-old wielding an L-shaped piece of paper going “pow, pow”
? A 9-year-old in “possession of a weapon ? firearm replica” pried from the cold, dead plastic hands of G.I. Joe, which was so small it needed to be taped to a sheet of paper so as not to be lost
? A 5-year-old in possession of something similar, only this one was the size of a quarter
? An 8-year-old brandishing not one, but two G.I. Joe pistols
