The Wussification Of America Continues: Schools Replacing “Tug of War” With “Tug of Peace”

 Via TIME: Across the country, schools are policing and punishing the distinctive, assertive sociability of boys. Many much-loved games have vanished from school playgrounds. At some schools, tug of war has been replaced with “tug of peace.” Since the 1990s, elimination games like dodgeball, red rover and tag have been under a cloud — too damaging to self-esteem and too violent, say certain experts. Young boys, with few exceptions, love action narratives. These usually involve heroes, bad guys, rescues and shoot-ups. As boys’ play proceeds, plots become more elaborate and the boys more transfixed. When researchers ask boys why they do it, the standard reply is, “Because it’s fun.”

"OK, I know to some this isn't a big story, but just want to let you know that the wussification of the American children continues in the libtard world. I would like to know how any grown person can do and say this stuff to kids with a straight face? Tug of Peace, really? How about "Tug on Libtard's Neck"?

2. Chrissy Matthews (pulled into a mud puddle and started thinking he was black)

4. Chris Hayes (nobody picked him 'cuz he's girly)
5. Joy Behar (her face scared the shit out of everybody, and there was no game)
6. Rachel Maddow (played for the boys team, but they lost anyway)
7. Ed Schultz (showed up drunk and cursed everyone)
8. Sandra Fluke (scratched her knee and wanted everyone to pay her medical bills)
9. Barack Obama (got confused and started tugging something else)
10. Michelle Obama (took away her Jack's Sausage Links so she ate everyone)

Holy shit, what is this country coming too? We are engineering a nation of pussies. One student at a time. We were taught that you win some, you lose some, and not "everyone gets a

 "I have as little superstition in me as any man living, but my secret opinion has ever been, and still is, that God Almighty will not give up a people to military destruction, or leave them unsupportedly to perish, who have so earnestly and so repeatedly sought to avoid the calamities of war, by every decent method which wisdom could invent." --Thomas Paine, 23 December 1776, "The Crisis"
