A New Jersey high school student was suspended for completing a project he was assigned, but because the subject had to do with guns, an additional punishment was tacked on by the school: a psychological evaluation.

Frank Harvey said one of his Manville High School teachers asked him to create an anti-gun control presentation for a college career readiness course, but after his forgotten thumb drive with the PowerPoint presentation was discovered in the school’s library by a concerned student, the police were notified.

According to The Blaze, officers arrived on Harvey’s doorstep to question him later that same day. Harvey had created his presentation using anti-gun control cartoons that mocked gun-free zones and cited instances where guns helped defend crimes. The police found no reason to suspect the boy was any trouble and dropped the investigation. He had no history of violence and had never been in detention.

However, the school’s reaction was much different. Harvey was suspended and not allowed to return to school until he agreed to undergo a five-hour psychological evaluation. His teacher denies ever giving Harvey that assignment. Understandably, his mother is quite upset and refusing the school’s ridiculous order:

“I am not taking him for a psychological evaluation because this teacher is lying and won’t own up to what she did.”

With his mother’s blessing, Harvey has decided not to return to school and will work towards graduation through the GED program.
