this isn't the "mark of the beast" but the technology is definately a precourser to that possibility.

Hope this gets serious traction.

They are getting the younger generation used to the idea of growing up being constantly monitored through their ID card so when they start implanting the younger generations children with these chips they will feel like its normal and will go along with it much easier.

Being able to practice storing the data and get all the "bugs" out during this NWO "beta" stage is just an added bonus.

Boy, it's a good thing they didn't have these when I was in school. I would have had so much fun.
Like another poster said, put it on a stray dog/cat, but then go to school. Truancy officer would not be a happy camper. Or little sisters backpack. Mom's car.... dang it!!!!

But seriously, I would not allow this for my child. As a parent, it is MY responsibility to know where my kid is.

This sickens me.
Leave the children alone.
This is a tech companies drive to make a buck.
This tech already exists in field techs vans, courier companies and taxis.

Another argument for voter ID.

"I had a teacher tell me I would not be allowed to vote because I did not have the proper voter ID,"

They have to have one to vote for school homecoming but not for President of the United States?

On issue: As long as my child used this card at school and only at school I don't have a problem with it. If my child is in their hands for the day I want them to be able to know where they are at all times. Anything else is invasion of privacy.

edit: Okay I just realized this is most likely solely for attendance. The more children they can prove go to school in a district is the more money they can get for funding in that district. It's an issue they have had with proving overall attendance to the government.

How about using the existing cards that the students ALREADY have (which have bar codes on them) and just putting a magnetic swipe on each teachers desk, every class you swipe in, problem solved.

What if I cut school and just have my friend bring my ID to school?

If a majority of the kids refused the tracking ID, there wouldn't be much of a homecoming. Sounds like these kids need to unite against them. I would tell my children to fight the authority if were still in school.

In Texas of all places...I didn't see that coming, not there anyway. Though after the Gardasil vaccinations it really shouldn't surprise me.

So whats next, CPS the kids, or arrest the parents for being parents and refusing?
Or will the school cut some deal with the kids away from the parents to get it to work? Like a gift certificate to GameStop, free iphone or something that appeals to the trendiness of children.

Idiocy in teaching - 101.

Rule number 1 - You can't teach kids that aren't present in class.

Truancy means nothing to kids today. Why would it?

Social conditioning has told kids that their parents can not tell them what to do for about half of a century now.

Guess what? It worked.

The present situation stems from the mentality that parents are not necessary and family doesn't matter any more.

Society has been reprogrammed so well that individual responsibility to anyone does not exist any more.

Parents can't control their kids. Society can't control them either.

Now the school district has to corral thousands of kids with no sense of responsibility who will get diplomas no matter what.

Yay affirmative action and NCLB. Great job at promoting failure at an early age as the norm.

It all worked so well but there's a catch. Schools aren't getting paid because the kids don't get held accountable and don't show up. So how can the schools continue to turn our kids into lazy manipulative parasites if they don't get funded?

Chip em like cattle.

A police state is the ultimate result of a progressive agenda.

Yeah, I heard on the news back in August they were bribing kids with money in order to get them to attend the first day of school. What is our society coming to when we have to do these things to get kids to attend school?

Hmmm....This could be a test to see how well it works before they start doing this to ALL of us. You know, like have a chip to scan for showing up to work (or you can't work) , a mandatory chip to scan for buying groceries, etc.. Maybe that kid who claimed it was the mark of the beast isn't too far off.

The school has no business knowing where the kid is if they are off school grounds. If they don't show up for school they are truant. Period. End of story.

Where they are instead of school is none of their business. Let the police handle the truancy laws as the law books dictate.

It has been shown time and time again that school officials can not be trusted with any kind of technology that monitors children outside of school. We have seen it with the laptop cameras that were used to spy on children without their knowledge. Imagine what they can do knowing where any given child is at any given time, day or night? Not to mention the indoctrination that is going on conditioning these children for life long 24 hour monitoring.

I am so freakin sick of power hungry people over-stepping their bounds.
