I have 2 girls in high school. They told me their friends were disappointed in the very lame parade this year and they banned throwing candy to the kids due to covid concerns.

So we decorated our vehicle and joined at the end of the parade.

We tossed candy to all. Everyone was so happy to see us breaking the rules. Everyone except the principal who tried to stop us half way through.

I told him that my daughter's would never forget I did this, and all the children would never forget that he tried to stop me. I kept going and he called the police on me. I had the girls exit the vehicle to hand out candy by hand to satisfy the law as I was considered to be banned from the actual parade (not that I was never officially signed up). The principal was fuming. I thought he would come through the window at me.

I taught my children a little about civil disobedience and how sometimes it's the right thing to do.

These clown world rules need to go.

If the event took place on a public right of way, the school had no right to restrict legal activities. Such as tossing candy.

Call it a peaceful protest.

You are an awesome parent. Keep putting your kids first. They will love and respect you for it, forever.

Great parenting!

My kids were heart broken that there were no Halloween (and Christmas) parades last year. It was "too dangerous"... Fuck these commies.

Q: How is giving free candy during a parade different from handing out free water to voters?

A: This is not electioneering. There is no other difference.

And they’re doing this even after the CDC downplayed the risks of picking up covid from surfaces, so it’s even more ridiculous.

Yea the covid paranoia is getting less tolerable even for the average person.

I love this! As a mom to 2 little girls, I appreciate this and you so much. These damn principals are traumatizing children and they should be ashamed.

My cucked small town that initially canceled our annual summer parade recently announced that it will be a "reverse" parade, where the floats will be stationary and people can drive by in their cars (masked up, of course) to view them. Fucking retarded.

How do they live with themselves knowing they've increased the carbon emissions by a few orders a magnitude? How dare they!? Where's Greta? Get her to fly in!

That’s a great point considering that our town is full of climate cultists as well that are demanding that the city declare a “climate emergency”. This is a small tourist town that generates negligible greenhouse gasses. The entire town could disappear and it wouldn’t do a fucking thing to reduce CO2 levels.

When Covid and climate collide. Who would win?

BRAVO!

Cheers praise credit prayers and honor be upon you and your household forever!

What a wonderful thing to be a free human!

I hope it sets off a wave of rebellion against the principal. That the kids get him fired for his fun police terrorism.

WALK OUT EVERY FRIDAY AND BREAK RULES FOR U/TREDGE AND FAM! JUSTICE FOR THE ATROCITIES COMMITTED AGAINST YOU, YOUR DAUGHTERS, YOUR TOWN, AND AMERICA!

All students MUST walk out. What a monstrous social injustice. You social HERO.

It isnt always the local leadership that wants to shut stuff down, they get put in a crappy spot. My state has mandated certain things that schools must follow or the state will come in and shut down a lot more. Failure to follow basic demands of the state no matter how stupid can cause local schools to get suspended from the Minnesota State High School League, which means they cant have spring sports, etc... The fact that others were following the request usually means that they had a school meeting and told them why throwing stuff would not be allowed. That principal may be the biggest dink in the world, or he may have just been trying to save spring sports from getting shut down if someone narc'd out the parade. I agree with the sentiment, but sometimes there is more to it.

What is the problem with throwing candy? How would that spread Covid? I can go in Dollar Tree and loot a bunch of candy and not get Covid from it?

I am really confused at how Covid is the smartest virus ever in the history of the world.
