Several NYC public HSs, Francis Lewis and Aviation, have very popular and successful JROTC pgms. From my JROTC days marksmanship was required. If still a requirement how will this be dealt with.

[I want the USA back]

But they teach the kooran, fist ******* and getting your wang chopped off.

[Renegade]

These Azzhats are certified idiots.

Olympic sports are too horrible for our high school students to bear.

[1Old Pro]

Why doesn’t Linda B. Rosenthal, an idiot who represents the 67th Assembly District in western Manhattan, also advocate for banning of much more dangerous activities from schools, such as swimming and driving and reading comprehension and sex education instruction?

Don't forget Heroin and opiod use.

Might as well, they have already eliminated free speech, prayers, math, proper English and of course American history. Send you kids to Charter schools or home school.

[Rinnwald]

What about discus, shot put, and the dreaded javelin?

At this point, there is no co-sponsor for it in the state Senate.

This is a non-story. This isn't going to pass, not even Democrats in New York want to go this far (yet).

Two points:

1 - Any excuse to ridicule leftist idiots who have been elected is worth capitalizing on.

2 - Good that you included the 'yet' proviso - remember that the same thing was said about same-sex marriage, etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum.

“What does archery have to do with guns?

Let’s ban arrows while we’re at it, too!”

Then baseballs, hockey sticks, ski poles, and we already have banned the dangerous game of dodgeball.

Close all the pools, someone might drown someone else.

It would be funny if it weren’t so serious.

Manhattan Assembly member Linda B. Rosenthal is a leading advocate on gender and menstrual equity issues in New York.

She’s a nut.

[Califreak]

What the ever lovin’ hell is menstrual equity?

[sergeantdave]

“What the ever lovin’ hell is menstrual equity?”

Whatever it is, it’s apparently important enough to crazy New York leftists to win her a seat in the state legislature.

Your guess is as good as mine. Maybe it has something to do with shorting or going long on Tampoon stocks.

Maybe because you "shoot" an arrow - they're gonna have to ban the male sex organ too....
