Hmm... now I'm in a dilemma. I don't have enough hair left in the front to cover that 'HaShem' tatoo and I can't afford the laser surgery to get it removed.

Dear Parents, Beginning February 11, we will be initiating a new method of student identification with the breakfast and lunch program.

At the beginning of this school year a BIO METRIC identification system was installed in the JR/SR High. This method of idetifying students and staff has worked very well, and now we will be installing it in the elemetary school.

BIO METRIC works by reading a fingerprint, then turns the fingerprint into a number. The process of turning the print into a number makes it virtually impossible to copy or access the print by any means.

We plan on starting the scanning process to put the prints into our system on February 6. If you have any questions how tyhe scanning will be done, please contact me. Thankyou Sharri Shivly.

If this isnt crazy i dont know what is? No its not the Mark..But it does not sit well with me..I dont call my pastor over shrivolous stuff, but tonight i called him . He was pretty suprised and reassured me it was not the mark, but we are getting closer and closer..he said its probably to protect the kids..etc..

Yeah, i know..But now my kids will be in BIG BROTHERS DATA Bank! I didnt say that! He said i could definitely go ask questions, and its my decison what to do, and also if he thought it was going to hurt the kids he would be the first one down at the school..
Am i freaking out or what>>

I am not a doomer gloomer...But i live in a small town..This is a smaller school..What does everyone think? Can you give me some advice? Thanks,Summer!!
I don't see why this is necessary anyways.

I am assuming it is for security purposes. But the thing about that is, most school shootings and violence is done by students. So they would already be in the system. Other than that I can't think of why they would need to have that information in a databank. Maybe for identification purposes in case of bombings, natural disasters etc.

Just like the long lines and upgraded security procedures in airports, it's just something that is done for splash and flash to make all the sheeple feel like the problem is being taken seriously and something is being done. All the while any intelligent person can see that none of these measures are capable of stopping somebody whose desire to kill exceeds their desire to live. Remember when they found that huge number of cargo handlers at Miami international were illegals? There's a back door to be exploited in every such situation.

It's all part of the implementation of the nanny state.
