I’m thankful for the usual things, such as my kids and being an American.
But I’m also thankful I’m not a blithering idiot like the bureaucrats at a Florida school. Here are a few details of this astounding example of utter stupidity.
A sheriff’s deputy was dispatched last week to a Florida elementary school after a girl kissed a boy during a physical education class. School brass actually reported the impromptu buss as a possible sex crime, according to the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. …The kiss apparently occurred after two girls debated over whom the boy liked more. That’s when one of the girls “went over and kissed” the boy. The redacted sheriff’s report notes that Haring “stated there were no new allegations of sexual abuse as far as she knew.”
Above and beyond the jaw-dropping idiocy of the education bureaucrats, I have two additional reactions to this story.
1. Why didn’t any girls try to kiss me in PE class? This isn’t right. There should have been redistribution so I got my fair share.
2. What on earth is wrong with Florida. Yes, they have the shame of being the home of the Florida Gators, but I’m talking about more fundamental weirdness. Many posts about government stupidity originate in the Sunshine State, including jack-booted speed trap policy, horrific stories about welfare abuse, and a kid getting suspended from school for having a toy gun.
[…] A local school calling the police because a little girl kissed a little boy in gym class. […]
[…] But American politicians have been busy as well in recent months, with impressive displays of incompetence and stupidity such as preventing a girl from boarding a plane because her purse had an image of a gun and a local school calling the police because a little girl kissed a little boy in gym class. […]
It’s the heat. Fried brains.
Educators in Florida are nothing more than pimps for the government.
I’m in Lee County as we speak.(or as we write, ya know what I mean) I think Florida actually celebrates it’s “WTF” moments. They need SOME claim to fame! But it’s sad they’ve chosen “freakish politically correct idiocy” as what they are going with. I would have gone with the beaches personally, but I’m blonde what do I know?
Florida has long-been a source of great comedic material for newman Buzz Burbank on the Mike O’Meara show.
“Thank you, Florida!”
