At Edgewood Schools, they don’t like it when you “like” guns.

A Butler County teen was suspended from school for clicking “Like” on a social media posting showing a handgun and the word “Ready.”

The boy was suspended last week from Edgewood Middle School with district officials citing school security concerns.

Edgewood Schools Superintendent Russ Fussnecker did not reply to a request to comment Sunday, but he did release a statement on the incident.

“Concerning the recent social media posting of a gun with the caption ‘Ready,’ and the liking of this post by another student, the policy at Edgewood City Schools reads as follows: The (school) board has a ‘zero tolerance’ of violent, disruptive, harassing, intimidating, bullying, or any other inappropriate behavior by its students,” said the statement sent to the Journal-News.

“Furthermore, the policy states: Students are also subject to discipline as outlined in the Student Code of Conduct that occurs off school property when the misbehavior adversely affects the educational process.”
