Fine - you continue on your ban-the-peanut crusade, then move on to sharp objects and paper cuts. The rest of us will just ignore the irrational loons.
Ah yes, the slippery slope nonsense.
Simply put, to many kids have allergies to peanuts, its lethal to them.
Naturally, you think kids should bring something that can kill their classmates to school.
Me saying, "hmmm, maybe we should be carefull that little kids don't have stuff that can kill other little kids".
Thats irrational?
Rrrrright.
I think that if your kid has peanut allergies that bad, you don't go telling the school to ban peanuts -- you homeschool your kid or get him a private tutor. Telling an entire school system / community to ban any contact with peanuts is overkill.
