Nanny State PING!

I remember when I was growing up in daBronx, this time of year the el that carries the #2 trains over White Plains Rd would be adorned with Christmas lights, wreaths, Menorahs, etc. This was also done on other sections of the subway system throughout NYC. Just imagine the uproar if the MTA were to allow such a blatant "governmental sponsorship of religion" today! Also, here's a dirty little secret, us gubmint workers not only get paid for Christmas, but unlike other holidays were we get 2X base pay for working those days, anyone who works on Christmas day gets 2.5X base pay. I dare the ACLU and any atheists to file court breifs to end this practice. I DOUBLE DOG dare them!

When my daughter was in 1st grade the school announced that kids could no longer play tag or chase each other on the playground. I told my daughter it would be OK with me if she ignored the rule. Sure enough, most of the kids ignore the rule and pretty soon the rule vanished I to thin air.

That’s what needs to happen in this case. Within reason, no school official has the right to tell parents what their kids can have in their sack lunch.
