I'm not sure I understand or perhaps there's more to this story. It's strange that a stuffed animal could cause a school to go into lockdown mode.

I feel sorry for you poor, SANE Floridians. Ever since the 2000 election, every stupid thing that happens in your state shows up in the national news. At least you don't live in Pensacola, where my best friend from high school now lives. That has to be THE capital of the stupidest criminals on earth!!
