My daughter declined when offered one and told the guy "My mom told me not to take things from strange people"
SCORE!

5. Were they on public school property? I hope you called the principal
of the school and threatened to hand out Wiccan fertility ritual materials tomorrow. Or at least Buddhist dharma.

I would.

7. The ones I saw were on the sidewalk across the street from the school
But chances are they would have gotten the ok from school officials (small town). Still kind of disturbs me, how do we know these guys weren't sickos? And yes I'm proud of her!

11. Then there's nothing the school can do about it. Personally, I'd carry around my own
megaphone and start chanting something in ancient chinese...Just to get the local churches involved and call off the fundies.

8. That school has a security problem.



Just because some asshole is shilling the Good Book, that is no reason to roll out
the red carpet and let them have free contact with the kids who attend there.

9. I know it bugs me
I don't know if this was in coordination of a "tea party" event or not but I don't like the idea of a bunch of men handing out things to kids as they leave school. If they want to hand out bibles, offer them to adults but giving them to kids leaving school is kinda of creepy.
