Glen Rock NJ, in a case of political correctness run amuck , Glen Rock Public Schools backs out of an American Legion Coloring Contests as cartoon of US Military is called offensive .
Statement from Bruce Watson, Interim Superintendent regarding the American Legion Coloring Contest :
“I have received a number of emails regarding my decision not to have our 4th and 5th grade students participate in this year’s American Legion Coloring Contest. This has caused me to pause. Perhaps I had too much concern for the impact of the picture. Today we look at everything thru a different lens when it comes to our students. There was no disrespect intended to our veterans and now after listening to parents, I will reverse this decision and allow the pictures to go home for parents and students to decide if they wish to compete.”
Give me a break!
Are you kidding me. This is getting to be ridiculous now. There’s a lot of opportunities if one joins. Other countries you’re forced. Maybe that’s what this country needs for our high school graduates to go into the military for a good year to straighten them out teach them reality, and some common sense make them strong and tough not sissies.
Is the Glen Rock superintendent trying to be a bigger tool than Fishbein?

Thank God for the US military. They offer so much more than you will ever know. The military has gotten so smart in the past few years and it’s just going to get better and better. You should be honored if you have a child that gets excepted into the Air Force Aura technology naval base these are the elite of the elite and brains.
No bigger tool than Fishbein….but a very close 2nd
