These brownies leave freckles when they kiss children.
These brownies go well with a glass of milk.
These Brownies are the younger version of Girl Scouts.
Theresa Kerry called dark pigmented children little brown children. She's one of the special people who would never get expelled for saying such.
Well, as I wrote to someone else, the Daily Caller (and also, apparently, the National Review) seem to be just speculating that the other student thought the mere use of the word “brownies” was racist.
But what each student said hasn’t been reported.
The mother of the boy who made the original comment said the students “were talking about brownies.”
Now, anything could have been said, in any context.
I remember being in first, second and third grades, and we had to write twenty-five times certain phrases, if we did something wrong. I recall myself and two other students, who were actually friends, trading some insults in class one day, and a teacher made me write about being kind because I made the twirling finger symbol for “crazy” about another student. I actually didn’t admit that to the teacher, though, but said I was just twirling my hair. Didn’t convince the teacher of that, though!
And one other student, knowing I had a German background, called me “Hitler’s grand-daughter” in class. He didn’t really mean anything by it, it was just a kid talking and saying something that seemed to have some merit to him, but he did get in trouble for it.
So I have to say, it’s entirely possible that this boy did use the word “brownie” in some racial way, perhaps just repeating something he heard from adults, or connecting the word to black students, either intentionally or not.
We just don’t know what was said. But we can say that there was no reason for the police to be called, just like they weren’t called to my elementary school classrooms (and even the principle wasn’t).
Period!
RINO or RINO light....he's either one or the other.
Maybe there’s so much on their page, advertisements and such, that you missed the comments, but I just saw them. Over 1,000, in fact. Their platform is Disqus.
Have you ever visited The Garden State?
I drove through a couple of times, but I missed the Garden, which must be somewhere between the NY burbs and the Philly burbs.
Thanks for Wilson.
There may be some good things and people in NJ, but you seem outnumbered and outgunned.
Who was the last really good guy to win a statewide race?
Fair enough....
No sign of intelligent life in charge at that school.
It isn’t.
Beam me up Jesus! Just any time from now.
I don’t feel at home in this world anymore.
Read “Soprano State.” Read “Boardwalk Empire.”
I live here. I have watched it change from a reasonably nice place to live to a sixth borough of Manhattan.
Please.
Because. “Cue” is pronounced “Q”, & that is a no-no in
the perfect PC world of Dhimmicrats. (You know, “Q” as in
“QUEER”. It’s what they used to be called years ago.)
Things like this make me want to take an online course and become an ambulance chasing vulture lawyer.
I would sue that school so fast for ‘emotional distress of a child’ and ‘assault’. I would ask for enough money to bankrupt the school.
Then I would press federal charges for trampling her civil rights.
We need a few examples like this to stop this foolishness on its tracks.
bfl
It was Jim Florio actually and a Democrat at that.
Did he say he wanted to schtoop a brownie?
