I am surprised they didn’t summarily execute the kid! After all, they have to clamp down on those over-achievers. They hurt the self-esteem of the goof-offs!

I wonder if they’re going to go after the pushers, going after the suppliers of big candy now.
To: Nashvegas
The New Haven school system banned candy sales in 2003 as part of a districtwide school wellness policy, school spokeswoman Catherine Sullivan-DeCarlo said. 1) Wellness. Watch for that word, folks. It's a sure sign of PC run amok. Normal people would say "health". When somebody says "wellness" they are most likely a nanny-state fascist.
2) Does anybody else here wonder at the fact that we have spokesholes for a local school district now? They probably have a superintendent making between 500k and a mil, and he's not competent to talk to the media?

The people need to give the educational institutions and good personnel enema. The people they put into these positions are frigging morons.

I can't believe they let this kid off. Skittles is just an entry level candy. By the time this kid is 20 he'll be free basing Ju Ju Beans.
And what has the educational system come to when they give up on the 24/7 monitoring of every child's caloric intake?
I wouldn't be surprised if there are kids popping TicTacs in the boys restroom!

Skittles is a well-known gateway candy. Next thing you know, they're stuffing their faces with Snickers and maybe even something truly insidious like a 100 Grand bar.
So when are the schools going to be given search warrant power to make sure the little kiddies' homes aren't stocked with Cap'n Crunch and Cocoa Krispies? I'm so glad that there is a "wellness policy" to dictate what's good for kids. God forbid the parents actually decide that.

I wonder if Michael Sheridan's reversal of fortune at the Sheridan Middle School had anything to do with ... oh, I don't know ... say, his
last name. Just curious.
(I also noticed that the school's name wasn't mentioned at all in this piece, which seems odd. It was, however, mentioned in yesterday's news story and that did not escape my attention!)

Mark Levin devoted almost all of his two-hour show yesterday to this travesty and presented one of his classic rants against the school and the “adults” running it. Go here to hear it:

OK, if anything deserves a big WTF, this is it.
The idiots in charge should be asking themselves how “healthy” and “well” it is to consider a bag of candy to be “contraband” and to suspend students and strip them of any Associated Student Body titles because of a freakin’ package of Skittles!!
They should also each be subjected to a month-long watch over their OWN diets, including body fat and cardio tests. Hey, you can’t be preaching “wellness” to the kids without being an example of “wellness” your own stupid self, now, can you? Suck in that belly!
