Seems that kids are whining that they are being "harrased" when the game of tag is being played on playgrounds - so elemetry schools are banning it - not kidding

I guess now we'll have a generation of kids that whines every time someone looks sideways at them - oh - wait a minute - we've already got two generations of that ever since Dr Spock - what a nation of wimps we have raised since the 1960s

Dont worry linkster

There are still plenty of child bullies around.

Banning Tag is like someone cutting themeselves everyday but instead of taking away the knife they just keep cleaning and bandageing the cuts.

why do i not care?

let local administrators make their own determinations,

please don't get hysterical about it.

We are responsible for the deaths of most of a million iraqis in an unnecessary & worse counterproductive war, costing 2 trillion dollars & someone is getting are excited about this?

What exactly are your priorities?

Yeap, it is confirmed, i AM the member of a self-aggrandizing barely marginally intelligent species.

Just a good example of how spineless and afraid of shadows the American people have allowed those governing to take them - guess it will take a little more than death and war to open their eyes

is the media shining a light of truth & exposure,

or waving banners of veiling deception?

This sounds like a banner of deception to me,
something to burn up vitriol that could be much better applied to some issue of actual worth.

Death by a thousand cuts of distraction,
when one clear slicing thrust into the heart of the beast would have slain it instead of you.

Like bread & circuses dressed up to look like it has any nutritional content.

Find the heart of the monster & put all your energy to that.

disrupter - sounds like you will have some fun watching the media circus this week - I guarantee you will be amused (and sickened) by the propaganda you are about to watch the mass media put out starting tomorrow

They prevent the kids from playing outside, do away with organized sports and recess periods and then complain our kids are getting fat. WTF?

[disrupter]

Looks like Jennifer is on the side of shrill media,

No wonder she is another cracked NeoNut.

More ad hominem attacks. Obviously you don't read the posts, you just have your pre-disposed notions and will attack out of fear of losing another argument.


Why don't you logoff for a month, cool down, and get your news from somewhere other then ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN for a change.

They pull the strings & your arms, legs, mouth & mind move.

what can i say?

you can't even self-control your own 'hot' buttons.

If they aren't spoon feeding you, leading you around, you wouldn't even have a clue.

Tag in schools is such a NON-issue.

Jennifer is a Neo-bimbo.

pull her strings & make her dance to your tune.

so easily led, so easily MIS-led.
