Concerns About Injuries Prompted Ban, Port Washington Officials Say
PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — Worries about injuries at a Long Island school have led to a surprising ban.
As CBS 2’s Jennifer McLogan reported Monday, officials at Weber Middle School in Port Washington are worried that students are getting hurt during recess. Thus, they have instituted a ban on footballs, baseballs, lacrosse balls, or anything that might hurt someone on school grounds.
I swear, ladies and gentlemen, it’s another new abrogation every day, dealt by Leftists, sworn to continue the pussification of our country. I can think of no other word. An attempt to turn our boys into little girls, and anything physical into something evil.
But the students will have no such option anymore. They were just informed that during recess, football is out and Nerf ball is in. Hard soccer balls have been banned, along with baseballs and lacrosse balls, rough games of tag, or cartwheels unless supervised by a coach.
And there you go. Football, out. Tag, out. Lacrosse, out. Baseballs, out. And God forbid any little girl or boy should do an UNSUPERVISED cartwheel — may they rot in public school festering hell.
But Port Washington schools Supt. Kathleen Maloney said the change in policy is warranted due to a rash of playground injuries.
Oh my God, how terrible. Playground injuries. Scraped knees. Bruised elbows. Perhaps even the occasional broken bone. HEINOUS! UNACCEPTABLE!
Without helmets and pads, children are much more susceptible to getting hurt, experts said.
Excellent point. Children should wear helmets, chest plates, hockey gloves, football knee pads and motocross back braces if they wish to play tag. They could fall. Gravity could occur.
Long Island Jewish Medical Center emergency room director Dr. Salvatore Pardo said he has been seeing “head injuries, bumps, scrapes; worried about concussions.”
Oh my God. A bump! Stop the presses! School children get BUMPS! Even worse: school children using recreational equipment may be subject to SCRAPES!
All this whilst little Mohammad in Syria, sodomized by strangers, living off scraps from the Muslim Brotherhood, forced into a Madrasa, taught how to fire an AK-47, is twice as tough — at age 11 — as most current US Army soldiers. And as US soldiers already know in the Middle East about Muslim men: women are for procreation, men and boys are for pleasure.
I am so, so glad I never had children. How do parents dare to expose their children to any public school venue at all, these days, if they want a fit, sane, intelligent, creative and sound-thinking bit of progeny?
