[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 266687, member: 8657"] I love life outside the bubble Wkmac, where I can over react, become a little too sarcastic and question the news that hits the press. Like when Nativity scenes are banned from government property. When the city of Boston put up a tree a couple of years back in a city park and dubbed it a "Holiday Tree". When school boards nation wide ban carols such as Silent Night from holiday assemblies. When politically correct greetings from Macy's, Target, Nordstroms, KMart, etc. replace "Merry Christmas". Or when I hear about some kid being warned or suspended from school for high fiving, shaking hands or hugging someone because forms of physical contact are being banned in our schools. This includes tag, dodgeball and games so violent that somebody might get hurt. Yet which never maimed or killed anybody when we were growing up. What the heck are we teaching our kids about competition and that the real world consists of winners and losers! Rock, paper, scissors might encourage our youth to go out and steal weapons. Children's books and nursery rhymes will probably be next. They, too, are evil... There was an old woman who lived in a shoe she had so many children she didn't know what to do she gave them some broth without any bread, she whipped them all soundly and put them to bed. [SIZE=3][I]Somebody call social services!!! [/I][/SIZE] Amazing, innit? [/QUOTE]
