Welcome to the ‘New World’.

This is nothing more than a Young Komosol program.

When will the red neck scarves start appearing?

Scanner is made or the right hand... Revelation 13:16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,

biometric software to track students who receive free or reduced-cost lunches.

Here's a thought... Pay for your kid's lunch yourself.

But how will the little urchin's fingerprints get fed into the Federal database without programs like this? </sarc>

[cincinnati65]

"The Hazleton Area School District recently announced it would be providing free meals to all students, regardless of need."

Then, there's no need for identification, as there will be no "free lunch" vs. "paid lunch" list.

I am sure the same parents who complain also use Farcebook, Paypal, cell phones, email, online payments elsewhere, and all the other latest technology gadgets and apps. Once you let the nose of the camel in the tents he will come on in.

This data provided by the biometrics was made available to the district and federal government for tracking purposes,

Ahh yes...tracking. “Oh no...its not for identification....its for TRACKING...”

Tracking what? Keeping count? No need for id for that....if all kids get a lunch, submitting the day’s attendance list should cover that...

::sigh::...I just could not send a child into this type of a situation. Poor child is being told she can’t eat unless she complies? Really?
Oh no...it doesn’t keep a REAL fingerprint...just a lot of ones and zeroes...ALL data is ones and zeroes. These data points are linked to the child’s identity. So the ARE keeping a de facto print. It won’t print out as a print, perhaps, but it will be associated with this child thru her school years.
Same thing, different name.

[bigbob]

Fingerprinting kids is a good idea, just ask any parent who has gone through the hell of a missing child. Using the biometric for ID is a side benefit.

Government, when not restrained, always turns into fascism.

Nope. No comparison to the Jews re: their ‘tracking’ tattoos </it’d be funny if it weren’t so sad>

Those damn Socialist Republicans Nazis again </s..there she is>
