First they came for the bake sales, and I didn’t speak up because I sold lemonade...

School isn’t for cookie sales. It’s for indoctrinating children in the glories of homosexual marriage and abortion.

Learn the new rules:

Condoms are okay; cookies are not.

Have they banned Girl Scout cookies yet?

Teaching the virtues of homosexuality in school is a hell of a lot more dangerous than the sugar content of cookies.

Let’s ban happiness and enjoyment, while we’re at it.

I remember all the sales for various clubs in school. The lame clubs had the Christmas gift wrap sales where you sold a couple of rolls to your parents and grandparents through guilt. They only way they could have made money was a 90% margin. Then there were the clubs with various candy sales which you could count on other students buying by the dozen. Back before gummi candy became popular, German club imported cases of Gummi Bears and sold to fund our club activities [ including a hostile take over of French club :-) ]. The other students would hunt for people with German books just to buy those tasty addictive bears. With silly rules like this those sales would be illegal.

Hmm.... let’s see... why worry about bake sales? how about worrying about the”food” that so many cafeterias sell to the kids? if you wanna change the nutritional value of food sold in schools, start with the cafeterias, where the WORST food is served. But, then again, that would just make too much sense for the state of California (or New York, for that matter...)

Some schools hire “wellness coordinators” to make sure they’re in compliance. What a load of garbage. Either you make available baked goods during the day or you don’t. You don’t need to hire someone to determine that.

Public schools are a racket. And a nuisance.

Idiots on parade. The schools are so concerned about obesity that, in addition to eliminating calories, they've also eliminated recess. Leaves more time for indoctrination.

And too many parents support this nonsense or don't care. Child abuse comes in many forms.
