A mother in Indiana was arrested and charged with possession of a firearm on school property and harassment after allegedly threatening her daughter’s lesbian teacher at Valley Mills Elementary School in Indianapolis. The incident occurred after the teacher gave an assignment about flags, including the rainbow flag, which the mother disagreed with due to its association with same-sexuality relationships. Police responded to a call about an irate parent on campus and found the mother with a gun on her waistband. The mother, Carrie Rivers, claimed she forgot she had the gun due to being used to wearing it and having been on school property with it before. She sent threatening messages to the teacher, calling her a child predator and telling her to “kiss ur kids goodbye” and “say ur prayers.” The mother’s husband claimed she meant no harm and carries the firearm for security. The school district stated that the mother will not be allowed on campus again and commended the staff for handling the situation safely. The teacher allowed the mother’s daughter to skip the assignment, but the mother continued to send threatening and harassing messages. The police did not find any threats against students or staff, but the district emphasized their commitment to ensuring a safe learning environment for all.
