No. It's hysterical admins using lousy logic to conclude that finger guns = violence. The logic is something along the lines of finger guns = real guns = killing people.
I think the logic is "it could be a threat" but yeah it's dumb either way, unless it is a threat I guess.
The only time I really heard this talked about was in elementary school, and finger guns were never a threat at the school I went to. Not even once, but the teachers and administration would harp on about it like kids were demonic for making them.
They could get you expelled at mine, but not charged. IIRC even water guns would get you actually charged. Tbf it was shortly after 9/11, but still.
