RFID Tracks school kids in Tucson

"The district-wide program would start with kindergarten through fifth-grade students, Rowley said, because they are less likely to complain about wearing a tracking device. As the children get older, the program could work its way into middle and high schools. "By the time a kindergartner gets to sixth grade, they'll get used to it," Rowley said."

[Tucson_AZ]

"This will allow the school to know as soon the kid boards the bus that they (students) are in their possession," he said.

[ARA]

this is bull. better stop this in its tracks

[Baynative]

Suggest doing this at the border and it will be dead in a heart beat.

[Gordongekko909]

Evil enters like a needle and spreads like an oak.

Notice how this is a school board regulation? Could this be overstepping their bounds by just a tad? Imagine how much power, by analogy, a taxing authority could have with something like this being acceptable.

[HangnJudge]

By the time a kindergartner gets to sixth grade, they'll get used to it

And so it begins, get the kids used to being marked, tracked, and sorted

Gets a lot easier to do the same thing to them 20 years later,
then to their children with implants cradle to grave,
all tracked by our beloved government...

Kind of makes you all tingly inside

[SteveMcKing]

"School kids" will certainly mean everyone to age 18, soon enough anyway. And then they're supposed to learn maturity instantly after that.

When they don't, the nanny-state will raise the age of adulthood - like for driving and alcohol - when the real problem all along was that they have been treated half their age their whole lives.

As they will still be treated at age 30 and beyond...

[Dumpster Baby]

"Damn, THX-1138 missed the bus again!"

[Ainast]

If they ever force me to accept an implant I will pull out my knife and digg it out the moment they get done implanting it.

oh wait, knives will probobly be illegal then like they are in the UK.

oh well, a spoon works just as good as a knife. It just takes a little longer. on the bright side it scoops much better.

[Kakaze]

It's always to protect the children, first. What really is telling here is the fact that they admit, that by tracking them young they will be "used" to it --read that as Conditioned.

All these programs for the kids have always been about conditionig and control.

-Dogs to search for drugs, submitting to an animal for judgement.

-Police road stops to inspect child safety seats, conditioning them to submit to a uniform without question.

-Encouraging them to report behavior that might be illegal by their parents, trust the state not your family

Now this tagging them like animals in an experiment. Because it will start with a "key fob" and end up with a implant at birth, after all a key fob could be missplaced and its bulky let us just inject you. We promise to keep this information confidential...yeah right and a social security number would never be used for ID or tax purposes too. Remember that "promise".

[Tax-chick]

... a plastic watchband, a small black box hooked to a belt loop or a key fob.

This reminds me of the ID/communicator thingies in "Star Trek," those little chevrons on the uniforms.

You know the kids will trade them around, leave them on the playground, flush them down the toilets, and Zot-knows-what else. All in good fun!

"Hey, for $20, I'll wear your ID tag and take your math test for you!"

[Lokibob]

I think they shoud lower the drinking age to 15, and raise the driving age to 25. / sarc

[upchuck]

From the article:

In the small town of Sutter, Calif., parents successfully lobbied the district to discontinue their monthlong ID tag program in February 2005 after discovering children were forced to wear them and that personal information was sent through the system. This year, the California state Senate proposed a law prohibiting the use of RFID technology in state and local governments.

Kalifornicia turned down this Big Brother technology? Astounding!

I love my implanted RFID chip and my implanted RFID chip loves me.

[HangnJudge]

Hmmmmm...

Aren't they setting us up for the same thing with our computers
Individually identified on the Internet,
so we can be marked, identified, sorted, and targeted
for our antisocial behavior?

Sort of makes posting to this forum fun doesn't it

[randog]

"Hey, for $20, I'll wear your ID tag and take your math test for you!"

Yup, this could be a lot of fun.

RFIDs are easy to spoof. You just put another (or several) RFIDs on your person (the kid's pockets, for instance) and the reader gets jammed with conflicting signals. What's the school gonna do then--schedule your kid for surgery to correct the problem? Inject him with another transponder?

[Ainast]

Does your implanted RFID chip release drugs into your system to make you not only compliant, but feel good as well? Just wondering cause all mine does is rat me out.

[thoughtomator]

All it will take is one pervert using one of these systems to find a victim to put a permanent end to this silly notion.

[oceanview]

these are not IMPLANTED into the student, its no more then an ID badge with a barcode, except that this one transmits a code wirelessly to a sensor.

All mine did was give me a nearly constant erection.

[SteveMcKing]

Heh.

I've no opinion on drinking, but for driving the age should be as low as possible. More years on the road = experience = saftey. A 40-year old new driver is as dangerous as a 16-year old, probably moreso due to slower reflexes.

[Dumpster Baby]

I have the Citizen OU-812 which does all these things. Highly recommended.

[HangnJudge]

Maybe not today, or tomorrow
But my instincts tell me that this
is bad JuJu.

Government should not
be trusted to hold this information
of a free and peaceful person. Period

[durasell]

My suits no longer fit,I had to have all the legs on the tables in my home altered, and don't even get me started on crowded subways or elevators!

[Smokin' Joe]

And so it begins, get the kids used to being marked, tracked, and sorted

Nah. It began when they started chasing God out of the schools and public places.

It continues with the attempt to marginalize or destroy Christianity (and Judaism), one twist, one seduction, one theory, one perversion at a time.

And it is gaining.

Anyone who had read their Bible would object out of hand to the mark, or anything approximating it. They had to remove the main source of objection from public discussion first.

[oceanview]

hold what information? where you kid is located on school grounds?

[durasell]

...on the positive side, I need no longer fear rolling out of bed in my sleep.

[Personal Responsibility]

I think suggesting that it be used to track people coming across the border, as stated above, will get it killed quicker.

[HangnJudge]

hold what information? where you kid is located on school grounds?

Again, this particular implementation is not in an of itself egregious

That they are clearly, by their own remarks,
wanting to implement this technology forward,
is worrisome to anyone who wants their children to be
able to speak and live freely in their adult life...

[Dumpster Baby]

A few glitches, though: I break out tap dancing entering or leaving the local Wal-Mart, and now I absolutely CRAVE pancake mix mold.

[durasell]

That's funny, I find myself drawn to Bed, Bath & Beyond. Once inside I say things like, "Egyptian cotten 600 thread count" and "vanilla scented candle..."

[Cobra64]

Interesting that we're tracking our children and at the same time invite illegal aliens into our country.

[Dosa26]

If they ever force me to accept an implant I will pull out my knife and digg it out the moment they get done implanting it.

Those that dig thier implant out of their right hand will be implanted in their skull in such a way that to remove it will require cutting the surrounding bone...or so I read.

[Smokin' Joe]

these are not IMPLANTED into the student, its no more then an ID badge with a barcode, except that this one transmits a code wirelessly to a sensor.

Do a websearch for Verichip. Implants exist, and are entirely possible.

If no one objects to this step, the next contentions will be that students are losing their chips, that security may be compromised, or they are giving their sensor to another student so they show up in the computer and are skipping school instead, etc. hassle., etc. expense, yadda yadda , and the push for implants will be on.

If one kid gets mugged or murdered for their sensor tag, you can bet the push will be on for implants as a "safety" measure, and some parents will even push for it.

Anyone who objects will be branded as not caring about the 'safety of the children' (sound familliar?), or religious wackos.

The step after that is to brand such parents as abusive and/or uncaring (to have such disregard for the 'safety of their children'!), and to have the State sieze their kids.

Nuts?

Who would have thought in 1960 that smoking would be practically banned in public places, that parents who spanked their children (spanked, not 'beat') would be branded as child abusers, or that homosexuality would be taught in the schools as part of 'sex-ed'? Social Security cards still had "Not for identification purposes" written right on them.

"We" aren't tracking our children, "they" are attempting to do so. Of course they are inviting illegals into the country as well.

Could be an opportunity for a cottage industry...

(in my best Donald Pleasance voice):

"Is it safe?"

"Is it safe?"

[Taboo]

Thats the spirit just like cigarettes and other drugs "By the time a kindergartner gets to sixth grade, they'll get used to it," its okay they'll be used to the injustice...

Whats next dog collars so you can punish kids when the tracker shows kids in inapporiate places?

[Dumpster Baby]

Ummm, that would be Sir Lawrence Olivier, I believe. For me, the sinister role Olivier had was greatly diminished knowing that he and Danny Kaye used to flit around together and were quite the item.

[HangnJudge]

Ohhh...
I want my own RFID home removal kit



2HP Firestorm Plunge Router

[Cobra64]

Sheesh. It was a rhetorical pronoun.

[Dumpster Baby]

Not so fast - I discovered that holding a Radio Shack bulk tape eraser over my implant turns it into an Orgasmatron like Woody Allen had in "Sleeper". You can amuse yourself ALL DAY with that thing!

[meyer]

Sheesh. It was a rhetorical pronoun.

Tis OK - I'm just not wanting to be part of the "we". :)

[durasell]

(in my best Donald Pleasance voice):
"Is it safe?"

"Is it safe?"




That would have been Larry "My dear boy, you should try acting" Olivier.

[Ainast]

I guess I could always stick my head in the microwave or something.

[Ainast]

Call ROTO Rooter, thats the name.
and away go troubles down the drain.
ROTO ROOTER

[Ainast]

and we have the 1000001 reason not to have RFID tags. Thats just gross.

Then you'll hate to learn about Marlon Brando and Wally Cox...
