In the English language, a certain type of baked chocolate dessert is known as a "brownie." This is very problematic, of course, because a lot of people have brown skin. If you say the word "brownie" out loud, you might hurt the feelings of a person with brown skin. And that's bad. That's why we have the police.
On June 16, police were called to an unlikely scene: an end-of-the-year class party at the William P. Tatem Elementary School in Collingswood.
A third grader had made a comment about the brownies being served to the class. After another student exclaimed that the remark was "racist," the school called the Collingswood Police Department, according to the mother of the boy who made the comment.

So what the **** are we supposed to call F’N BROWNIES these days without “offending” anyone? Whoever called the cops needs their asses kicked along with the snowflake that complained.
Earth tone appearing square treats.
In this case, a miracle. Parents live down the street from Camden, one of the most deplorably criminal-infested cities in NJ. They live in a state with astronomically high property taxes. Gun ownership is regarded as criminal insanity. And the mother of this child thinks a different public school would be different. (As if it would even be allowed.)
Amidst all the who-struck-John one fact remains: none of these people have a lick of common sense. In addition, they are all abusing their powers of office passively or actively.

"After all, according to both school officials and police, they were told during a May 25 meeting with representatives from the county prosecutors office that every little thing that could maybe potentially be considered criminal even things that Police Chief Kevin Carey called as minor as a simple name-calling incident should be reported to the cops."

No way in Hades. He’s smarter than that.
The Chief isn’t stupid. The more people call the cops, the bigger budgets they demand. New cars, pay raises, better benefits on an on.
TeaBagger would have been just fine
"Permanency." Doesn't that sound draconian? If not for the Protection, would it be called Division of Permanency, or Division of Child Permanency? Either way, what exactly is being made, affirmed, or ensured permanency? The child's custody and residence? Theoretically, does the child who is brought to their attention for "just about anything" automatically become subject to their judgment as to his residence and his parents' rights?
Yes.
After reading this outrageous article, two times, I concluded that the accusing student has been indoctrinated by his parents about EVERYTHING that could be considered “racist.” And I wonder what we should call brownies? Also, what about the junior girl scouts - aren’t they Brownies? Will that now be changed??
God help us all.
.
I thought that was really strange, too, and maybe like a new expression - a “permanent childhood”? Maybe it was slip-up that got past the editor, if newspapers still use those?
#9. Oh, like saying “Dark Chocolates” about candy?
No slip up. It’s real. But I still don’t understand:
Child Protection and Permanency
“Child Protection and Permanency, CP&P (formerly the Division of Youth and Family Services, DYFS), is New Jersey’s child protection and child welfare agency within the Department of Children and Families. Its mission is to ensure the safety, permanency and well-being of children and to support families.”

Wish I had seen your response earlier. Took me a heck of a long time to copy/paste the original article. :^(
Perhaps the best way to deal with this is to turn the tables and cry foul at every word that can be construed as discrimination in the reverse such as:
white
cream
snow
light
blonde
straight
“Whoever called the cops needs their asses kicked along with the snowflake that complained.”
That was my first thought!
Stunning that a police officer would actually ask that question. He ought to be fired.
