NJ Elementary School Calls Cops On Third-Grader For Saying 'Brownie'
Daily Caller ^ | June 29, 2016 | Jim Treacher

Posted on 06/29/2016 4:31:48 PM PDT by Zakeet

In the English language, a certain type of baked chocolate dessert is known as a "brownie." This is very problematic, of course, because a lot of people have brown skin. If you say the word "brownie" out loud, you might hurt the feelings of a person with brown skin. And that's bad. That's why we have the police.

On June 16, police were called to an unlikely scene: an end-of-the-year class party at the William P. Tatem Elementary School in Collingswood.

A third grader had made a comment about the brownies being served to the class. After another student exclaimed that the remark was "racist," the school called the Collingswood Police Department, according to the mother of the boy who made the comment.

It's a good thing the little criminal didn't use the words "cupcake" or "twinkie."

There is no point in attempting to live with these intolerant asses any longer.

The time for the split, per Dr. Walter E. Williams, has arrived.

No joke.

Next time you cook up some of those tasty dark colored treats, do not call them the B word. Call them dark colored sugary squares.

The time for the split, per Dr. Walter E. Williams, has arrived.

The split between sanity and total wigged out looney toons.

These people have walked off the bridge and in to the abyss.

I have never before heard of the word “brownie” as being a racial epithet and can’t for the life of me understand why it would be.

I’ve taught my kids to avoid this troublesome sort of event. When anyone asks my kids what they like for dessert, they are trained to reply, “Those cakey things that are loaded with marijuana. They give me a real buzz.”

This never causes a ripple of social outrage, times being what they are.

‘School’ is a misnomer. They are ideological day camps.

They called the cops on a third grader for saying “brownie”? I’m sorry, even if he had used the N-word that shouldn’t be grounds for law enforcement. There must be more to this story.

Mr Christie is somewhat disappointing, but if he had won the GOP nomination this year, he’d give Clinton a tough race just like Trump.
