With the Just Move! stamp issuance the U.S. Postal Service hoped to raise awareness about the importance of physical activity in achieving a healthy lifestyle. However, according to Linns Stamp News, the USPS will be destroying the entire press run after receiving concerns from the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition over alleged “unsafe” acts depicted on three of the stamps...

Oh for fucks fucking sake:
after receiving concerns from the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition over alleged “unsafe” acts depicted on three of the stamps (cannonball dive, skateboarding without kneepads and a headstand without a helmet). (There’s also a batter without a batting helmet, a girl balancing on a slippery rock, and a soccer player without kneepads or shin pads.) View Quote |

Oh for fuck's sake.
A STAMP might make a kid try to do anything? They'll never see the fucking things and wouldn't care if they did. How many millions of $$$$$$$$$ will THIS cost USPS? |

Other than half the stamps looking like some type of break dancing move, I don't see a problem
Speaking of stamps, maybe if we still had books of actual food stamps in use, they could depict people on them performing work - that might give people a clue |

It is now official The United States has sand in its vagina She moved and it took almost a year to acquire a key to the new place. Then one day a few months ago my wife was in a pissing match over something and her mom thought she was cool and pulled a prank on someone and going on and on about how good her prank was.. So the wife drops the " you know what the best prank ever was? Ya, when we haunted you house for like six months to the point you moved, changed your phone number and tried to have the former building manager fired for stalking you" It was awesome. She still didn't know the whole cat poster thing was us and we dropped that bomb on her a few weeks later. Funny thing is those found cat posters are kind of a local legend now. I've seen my original used by the local news paper and a pizza place! Planning round 2 now |

I guess a series showing the CMP getting kids involved in learning to shoot is out of the question then, huh? |
|
Haha, when has anyone ever worn a helmet while doing a headstand?

That is alright, it is just taxpayer's money.
BTW: From my readings on the internet, the USPS has applied for emergency stamp increases because they are going to run out out of money in Feb or Mar. Fun, fun, fun in the asylum. |

The President's council on fitness, you say?
I've seen the same level of fecklessness much closer to home, too. |

The ban at Weber Middle School in Port Washington, N.Y. will apply to footballs, baseballs, soccer balls, lacrosse balls or any other equipment that might harm a child or school friends. Students will be allowed to play with softer Nerf balls.
Rough games of tag or cartwheels will require supervision from a coach, according to the report. |

Their punishment for playing football on school grounds was spend the next two weeks recess sitting at what the principal calls a reflection table ( a separate lunch table) so they could reflect on their misdeeds. The pussification of America by the Left makes me want to puke, what they are doing is creating a mindless, docile, completely subservient generation of Americans. |
