There needs to be a zero tolerance policy against idiots in charge of teaching children.

They are made at a deli in Milwaukee down the street from where I work, they are pretty popular with people I work with

Wow! It's even infecting the good states!
Those gummy gunnies rock! I'd buy a few boxes of them.
As a parent, I would have demanded the principal prove to me or to anyone that what the toy soldier was actually holding was a toy gun. He could have been holding a pool cue, a golf club, or a surveyor's tool.
It can't be done. She would have had to withdrawn her "weapon" ban (since when is the depiction of a weapon a weapon, anyways?).
In order to combat this absolute lunacy, one needs to get into a certain state of mind. Gawd forbid, but you have to think like them sometimes. If these moonbats actually think these tiny toys are weapons, then you can point out to them that they are too small to actually fire or hurt someone, and maybe they are something else. Maybe they are pole vaults. You have to talk to them like they are children, perhaps reassuring them.

Even that's not a guarantee these days.
One of my cousins went to St. Sabina in Chicago in the '60s. Remember, that's where that imbecile priest who threatened to "snuff" the owner of Chuck's Gunshop in Riverdale, IL is pastor.
Back in the early '70s when I was going to Quigley South Preparatory Seminary in Chicago, I broached the subject of Jr. ROTC. A very leftwing female lay teacher responded, "I'd quit!", if they got Jr. ROTC. I replied, "I'm sure we'll all miss you."
The key to all of this assininity is a quick, harsh and uncompromising response by the parents. Just about EVERY stupidity inflicted on an innocent child by teachers and school administrators is premised on a timid response by parents. If you instead, start ripping faces, they almost invariably back off quickly. When I was going to St. Columbanus Catholic elementary school in the '60s, one nun made the insane mistake of telling my mother and my grandmother that they should stop me from reading so much because I was too far ahead of the other kids. They proceeded to "counsel" the nun, using words which would have made R. Lee Ermey blush. My reading continued uninterrupted.

A ball point pen is more of a weapon that a plastic army man.
