The list includes absolutely no fighting, real or imaginary; no weapons, real or imaginary”

It is a short stretch from this to say no competition: sports, music festivals, art shows, ...

And then into the classroom: no scoring of tests (you are ‘fighting’ against other students when they grade on the curve). And no scissors (self defense weapon).

This stuff is not funny anymore. Hard to puke when you are all puked out.

PS As a kid, I actually carved myself a full sized grenade from a piece of wood and threw it around the yard as needed.

My parents bought me a toy grenade when I was a boy, totally realistic and made from real steel. I remember throwing it once at my brother, hitting him in the nose, and making his nose bleed.

Come to think of it, he was my older brother and he constantly bullied me. The thought that I got him back that time makes me smile, all these years later.
