Third-Grader: Busted For Jolly Rancher Possession

I guess I missed something because I can understand the candy being injected with the drug or made with it put inside and who put it there who did it and how sense this is a hard candy? Other than so what's wrong with the candy itself?

 

It's apparently against the school's "nutritional guidelines". Cause we are now too blasted stupid to know how to feed our kids without government involvement.

 

They had the same type of rules when I was in the third grade and it was in the 60's.

 

Were they enforced as strictly as today? Cause my school didn't care what we ate, or even if we ate on a day-to-day basis. As long as we showed up so they could get paid for our presence, my school didn't give a red rat's fart about us until we brought ourselves the the school staff's attention.

 

I do not remember anyone trying to do it. But I am sure it would not have been on the internet then.

 

Hhahaha! Internet in the '60s was the local women's gossip circle, hahaha!

 

....

Suck it up and deal with it?

########.

I'd take it to the supreme freaking court if I had too. Or at least as far as I could fight them. This is not their business. If I decide to send my kid to school with candy as a snack in their lunch they can kiss my Puerto Rican ... wait this is my state?!

Excuse me I have some numbers to track down for Monday.

 

They only need to change the name of the candy to Jolly Migrant Worker, and it will be allowed to go everywhere!

 

There were so-called contraband food restrictions when I was in elementary school in the 60s....but a freakin' suspension? Back then, you were caught with them, they were taken away. Period. Message sent, message received.


On the other hand, first it's Jolly Ranchers. Pretty soon they may graduate to the hard stuff....like Jujubees, Whoppers, and Raisinettes.
