Notice that the girl has a different last name from the mother (what does that mean?) and it's her ONLY CHILD which is why she's so over-protective.
It was a stupid note -- nothing more. No guns were found; no crime was committed.
Why do the authorities always step in and elevate "child's monkey business" to serious business? It's so stupid.
Oh, and notice how the media is stupid as usual. It should be "Whose daughter" not "who's daughter". I don't have a degree (like the professional writer probably does), but I know that. But you know what? It probably passed the electronic "Spell-check".
Girl, 9, Threatens To Kill Classmate Over Zebra Cakes
POSTED: 4:31 pm EDT September 13, 2007
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Even the mother of the girl who was threatened said she can't get a copy of the note, but she did get to read it. In a police report she said another girl talked about having a gun and wanting to kill her daughter.
"The note said 'I have a gun and first I'm going to shoot you in the shoulder,'" said Cindy Landfair, mother of the girl who was threatened.
From one nine-year-old girl to another, the note continued.
"...then you're going to shoot me back with a bazooka, but you're gonna miss..."
Cindy Landfair said a note to her daughter from a classmate at Southwood Elementary School went too far.
"...and then I'm going to shoot you back and kill you..." the note continued.
"I was shocked. I was terrified," Landfair said.
The girl's mother said it all started over snacks. Her daughter traded her 'zebra cakes' for a bag of chips. But when the other girl wanted both for herself, the mother said that's when she wrote the threatening note.
It happened during an after school program run by the YMCA. They suspended the girl who wrote the note, but Landfair said school officials won't tell her whether they've done the same and will only say they're handling the matter internally.
"I don't know anything at this point. The school is basically leaving me in the dark," Landfair added.
Landfair, who's daughter has a different last name, said she may pull her kids out of the school even though authorities couldn't find a gun and don't believe there was a crime committed.
When asked if she thought she was being an over protective mother, Cindy Landfair responded.
"Yes, I do, but I only have one daughter and she's not replaceable" she said.
School district administrators contacted the sheriff's office. The district said it's considering how the girl who wrote the note should be disciplined.
