Poseer un facsímil de una arma puede resultar en 180-días de suspención

Estudiantes y padres, recuérdense que una nueva ley federal prohibe el uso o posesión de una arma o facsímil de una arma en los locales escolares.  El más popular facsímil de una arma hoy día incluye la arma popular que se llama “Air-soft guns”.  La ley es muy clara que estudiantes que poseen una facsímil de una arma en la escuela, a pesar del intento, puede ser suspendido por 180 días.
