News Article - Snack Cake Killing

I was on cnn.com this morning to look for a news article and came across a funny title "Girl, 9, Threatens To Kill Classmate Over Zebra Cakes". So I read into it and read that these two girls were going to trade their snacks during an after school program...one was going to trade her potato chips for the other girls' zebra cakes. One of the girls wanted the potato chips and the snack cakes all to herself, and when the other girl wouldn't let that happen, she wrote her a letter. The letter was about how she was going to kill her and what guns she was going to use and even how the other girl was going to fight back and what guns she was going to use because the other girl wouldn't give her the potato chips. This was all in a note, and the mother of the girl who the note was being sent to didn't even get a copy of this note, she just got to read it.

As a terrified mother, she was left in the dark during this whole thing. She doesn't even know if the little girl is going to be suspended or punished for writing this horrible note to her daughter. You would think that this girl would be expelled or suspended for...a long time because of this note. A 9 year old little girl was writing about how she was going to kill another person and what gun she was going to use all because she couldn't get a bag of potato chips!!! A 9 year old!! Nobody should be writing these things to anybody let alone a little 9 year old girl. How does she get this information about these guns anyways?! I think this little girl should be expelled from the school and get counseling immediately.
