Today, I went to a dollar store with a couple friends to buy cap guns to play with. We were having a lot of fun with them, and took them onto a bus. 5 minutes later, three cops got on, handcuffed us, and sternly talked to us about the dangers of guns. We got arrested for toy guns. We are 17. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I was at a party when the cops showed up. They asked whether anyone had a gun, but I heard "fun" instead and raised my hand. I got searched. FML
Today, the police came to my house and arrested me. Why? The neighborhood kids thought it would be fun to hide behind my house and shoot at people with paintball guns. People saw it coming from my house and called the police. I was fired from work, due to missing it without notice. No excuses. FML
Today, I took a group of teens with me to hang up posters for our church's yard sale. Because it's summer, we went out at dusk to beat the heat. Someone called the cops on us, and we were arrested for "gang activity". FML
Today, at the bank, my 8-year-old son decided to pull out realistic looking toy gun, and scream "FREEZE! Give me all your money!" The dim-witted bank teller pressed the silent alarm, and I was nearly arrested. FML
Today, at the grocery store, the cops grabbed, cuffed, and hauled me to the station after the clerk called on me. I was with my 11 year-old niece, and she secretly tried to buy a pregnancy test. Despite saying it was for her aunt (my wife) who asked her to buy it for her without me knowing, they didn't believe her. FML
Today, I went to my local bank after getting an email from them concerning unknown purchases. Four hours later, I was still in police custody. Someone had been using my account to purchase guns and drugs. FML
Today, we went to an amusement park, or tried to. My idiot husband stuck his hand under his shirt like a gun and demanded free passes and "all the cash" as a joke. He's banned for life, they escorted us off the premises, and my children are inconsolable. FML
Today, my principal made me visit "anti-violence" classes because I had a picture of me threatening a man with a gun on my Facebook page. It was taken during the school play, where I was acting as a gangster and the gun was just a toy. The principal saw the play. FML
Today, my BFF and I put our kids on the bus, and went shopping and have lunch. We were both eating a gross amount of Taco Bell sitting in the middle of the parking lot. The cops pulled up. Someone had called them, saying we were doing drugs because of the way we were sitting. FML
Today, after my parents left for the weekend, my "friends" decided to throw a party at my house, despite my protests. In order to get them to leave, I called the police. I was the only one arrested, while they got warnings. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Everyone who thinks he deserved it because he's 17 and still playing with toy guns should realise that staying young at heart is important. I feel sorry for people unlike the OP, who never play any games.

Some places, like transportation vehicles and depots, choose to not allow guns of any type... even toy guns, since police officers mistake them for real guns. (Which apparently happened here.) Stupid, but there you go, luckily they didnt shoot to disarm/kill you.

This is retarded gone to extremes. At 17, you should understand the dangers of having something that even remotely looks like a gun out in public places. A bus is a very, very dangerous place to be. People are always worried when they're on a bus or subway on getting robbed or worst. The very fact that you can't understand this, shows just how retarded you are. You're lucky all you got was a slap on the wrist, and not got yourself killed by the police thinking you actually had a gun. Consider it a blessing and hopefully you understood what you did. You didn't really do anything wrong, just extremely dumb and inconsiderate of the situations/location you're in.

FYl but this is a fake. police officers knoiw the difference between fake and real by the colored tip of the gun. Any one with a fucing brain can tell the difference. Also it is fun to play with little kid stuff when you are older to get a blast from the past so dont call him immature because i can garuntee all of you have done it b4 so all of you STFU!

YDI for being dumbshits. people are a panicky bunch when they see ANYTHING that looks like a gun. they're even scared of a damn magazine about hunting, because it has guns in it. They ban cap guns in a lot of places because of it and for you guys to be screwin' around like that, you have no right to complain. shut up and take your lashes. you're lucky no charges were given. you ******* deserve it.

When I was in high school the same thing happened to a group of guys I knew. Ironically, one of the officers knew some of them and let them go with a warning.

This makes me want to play with a cap gun. I remember those things. And for those of you who thing it's wrong for a 17 year old boy to play with them, I am a 20 year old girl. LONG LIVE CHILDHOOD! They're fun when used responsibly... That being said, a public bus is NOT a responsible place to be playing with a cap gun. YDI, especially since I am assuming it was one of those black ones.
