Game of tag banned in Santa Monica school

I grew up without seat belts or bike helmets. How rapidly our concerns for safety have multiplied since then!

I'm assuming "Smear the Queer" is no longer allowed to be played either. Fuckers.

Showing my ignorance... never heard of that one.

Heh. I never played it but my brother (and all the boys) did. I think it was just a violent version of tag, where you got to pound on the guy who was "it." There were no real queers involved. (At least none who were out of the closet at the age of 10.) ;o)

Seriously, why can't kids just play tag? Who gives a crap? Pretty soon hide-n-seek will be outlawed because fat kids can't find as many places to hide. Argh! I am so sick of all the politically correct BS.
