I just don't get why the police were called.. Your telling me one of the janitors couldn't just take it away from the kid? He's 8.. WTF?

This is what went through my head... seriously? ADULTS afraid of an 8 year old?? Bunch of fucking pussies.. it's not like he had a gun. Just yank the damn stick out of his hand. If he gets splinters, sounds like a personal fucking problem to me...
