Michigan Elementary School Confiscates “Insensitive” Cupcakes

I find your use of "indoctrination" funny here, isn't it scarier to "indoctrinate" elementary school kids with army men ?

think about it. the bank cabal uses the worlds armies to kill poor young people as a means of financing the worlds governments central banks and make enormous fortunes

is this to be celebrated ?

war isn't a john wayne movie

No,

It's worse when 'indoctrinate' means any and all things the Govt. lays out for school children to obey according to their laws and ideals of what our children should be and what they are being allowed/not allowed to be exposed to.

An ever increasing Nanny State is only a polite term for Police State anyways. It's not the toy but just another creep across the line of total control.

Can't have the 2 inch toy but these same kids can have ROTC a few years later? WTH?

First, learn to listen to us...and then we'll tell you what to do. Getting them ready to just fall in line? Again, the toy isn't the issue is it? It's control and fear.

Personally, I believe adults who bring politics directly into the lives of kids below the teen level (at the earliest) are obscene toads and deserve no respect. They certainly shouldn't hold positions of authority with our children. reply to post by Wrabbit2000


I agree 100%

The socialists have learned from their failures of the past - don't bother forcing people into your ideology, just indoctrinate them. Children are the future, those who impress upon them wins.

I laughed when I read this. When I was a kid we (in our little family) took chocolate cupcakes with white frosting to school for birthdays. In the middle of each cupcake was a Red Hot, which made them look like boobs.

And when is it better to train them? In school when the parents aren't there of course.

School Wants to Limit Parental Access to Children
radio.foxnews.com...

Carol Birdsong, a spokesperson for Williamson County Schools, told Fox News the principal came up with the voucher system as a result of the school massacre in Newtown, Conn. “Based on that, she thought it might be good to implement a voucher-type system,” she said. “Please remember the primary purpose for this process is to ensure that we are able to account for all the adults in the cafeteria enjoying lunch with their children,” Principal Laura LaChance wrote in an email to parents. Under the new rules, parents would have to register online and obtain an “event ticket” to eat lunch with their children.

Seriously flawed cupcake confiscation... like maybe the school would have thought this better?

-I am from Michigan.

The best part of all this? (best as in, most absurd and funny...) My Sisters Son was not allowed to bring his GI Joes to school because they had "Guns"... He wasnt suspended or anything but his Toys were confiscated and my Sis had to go pick them up from the school as they wouldnt even let him bring them home...BUT on Career day (he is in Elementary school) the Arms, navy, Air Force, marines, Sheriff (wearing a firearm) all came and passed out their literature (much of which pictured Firearms) and tried to talk about "serving your Country" blah...Blah..

My Sister was so pissed off after he came home with pamphlets from the Armed forces but even drawing (i.e. artistically) a gun could get him suspended and the school decided he couldnt even ride home on the Bus with his GI Joe Toys...LOL.
-Thigs are far past absurd.

Heck, in my hometown a child drew a picture of a gun in class.....police were called in, the home of the child was searched and the father of said child was strip searched. To think if someone told me this stuff was going to happen 10-15 years ago I would have said they were crazy.

Sad thing is this sort of craziness is accelerating.

this makes me laugh considering Caro is a farming and mill community. Plenty of guns around and plenty of rightwingers.. But they don't have much going on there besides sugar beets so this will give them their 15 minutes..

Something like this comes to mind for some reason... how "insensitive" right?

Right...

Soldiers should not be allowed anywhere near a school...right?

The debate needs to tart with these words right here:

“Living in a democratic society entails respect for opposing opinions,” she stated.

When parents devoted their lives to work in civil society and remitted the job of raising the children to the schools, the educators took this as an okay to begin instructing the children in their views on society. What she is expounding on is something philosophers should be concerning themselves with, not teachers, and if we continue to let these sophists to inflict their utopian views of society on children then these outrages will continue.

Star and Flag, Jude. I also believe the begging-of-the-question forum
is appropriate for threads containing subject matter with this degree of WTF.
The PC reach into the Wild Blue Yonder is another idiotic extreme of the Eigth Protocol
coming home to roost. I said it before and will until I'm blue in the face, in a nutshell
"Don't hire anybody less compromisd than you are."
Unfortunately that may apply also to cognitively challenged academia nuts.
Kruschev said in 1956, "... we will bury you!" . Gradually he got some great results
completely hands off and only three generations later, by the looks of things .

The final perverse truth from Der Fuhrer extolling the Prussian Model:
“When an opponent declares, 'I will not come over to your side,'
I calmly say, 'Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on.
Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will
know nothing else but this new community.' ”
It is now evident by the significant fraction of Cretins that the Fuhrer's base camp
has pulled stakes and is firmly bivouacked (capital whacked) at a large Greek
suburban island. My apologies to the natives-- you simply can't deserve this ingress
of popskulls, you're great people.

I finally am grateful every night there are none of my own to leave behind in a
world this flipped out. Eugenics good, everybody happy.

ps almost forgot the elevator faux poo... I shall rectify that omiGOD whew.
I'm on a roll please help me I'm surrounded by geniuses.
I have a scratch recipe for Albino BBQ (Great Northerns and almost moldy
on-sale pork shoulder) that is what I believe to be the 21st Century's next big
source of free natural gas energy. I mean, even simmering and before the
sauce goes in the crucible (required); the slurry carries an olefactory signature
akin to a '75 Caprice with terminal exhaust valves. "Anybody touches me,
WE ALL GO." Kurt Russel, John Carpenter's 'The Thing' redux. A three
tablespoon sample can get you kicked off a leaky septic suck truck in August. But
it's literally gastric C4 when served as a side room temerature big bowlful with my
patented Gringo Scramblers el Wierdo and a skunky Miller Genuine Drafty drawers.
I'm goin' to the Dirksen Bulding and hop in the milk run local elevator, so I can be
arrested as a domestic tear@$$. MG-42 stands for vintage German ManGoo
machine gun, tan prison stripes built-in ROFL
Now it's time to pull out our K-garten rug for a nice afternoon dirt nap practice.

It was probably bad judgement on the part of the mother for putting soldiers on the cupcakes that were sporting guns. We all know this is a sensitive time for both schools and parents any mention of a gun with raise hysteria because of Sandy Hook. Plus, not all parents are comfortable with their kids having access to toys that have guns. Schools are not places where you can just do what you want to because you as a parent think its ok. You have to think about the other children and what their parents might think as well. Either way, this has nothing to do with disrespecting vets as several posters suggested the problem was not that there were soldiers but that the soldiers were holding guns. Either way the kids got to enjoy their sugary treat so whats the big deal?

I wish I could star this more than once!

Absolutely to the point and exactly what I'm referring to.

'Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.' ”

This is an example of history repeating itself and should be evidence to many that the US is following an agenda as old as time. None have succeeded tho.

Thank you.

Peace

Bad judgement? For toys

Sandy Hook? Fear

Not all parents are comfortable? Why are the wishes of the few more important?

Nothing to do with disrespecting vets? Actually correct.

It's everything to do with disrespecting parents, their rights, freedom of speech, and in general, freedom...it's a 2 inch toy that does no harm but to not fall in line with what is expected/demanded anymore. And that is...to fall in line and obey.

Yes it was bad judgement to give kids that are not your own toys with guns. Sandy Hook is a valid reason for the school not to want toy guns around. They listed it as insensitive given what happened at Sandy Hook, in this instance it is about observing the tragedy not fearing anything. If it was about fear they would have gone further than just removing the toys from the cupcakes. How do you know only a few parents would be uncomfortable? The majority of the students in the class could have parents that do not allow them to play with guns or anything resembling one.

I think your mistake is thinking that parents or students have the same rights in public schools that they do when they are at home, they don't. Most schools requires either the student or parent or both, to sign paperwork agreeing to the schools rules and code of conduct. Schools are not a democracy, they infringe on constitutional freedoms all the time. By signing whatever the school gives you, you agree to let them do what they want and infringe on these rights. If you don't like it either home school or put your kids in private school.

That's ok.

You can obey all the rules that keep changing on a daily basis. Good luck with that because your freedom arena is shrinking daily as well.

Me?

I'll put whatever the hell my child wants on a cupcake for their birthday if I decide it's ok. Me...the parent.

And to all the people falling in line...Shame on you. You played with 2 inch plastic toys when you were young...did you turn out to be a mass murderer?

No. You turned out to be afraid of your own shadows which has happened only recently so guess who helped you along? Not the toy.
