8 students at MLK Middle School in SF treated after ingesting rat poison 13 Jan 2011 Six students at Martin Luther King Jr. Academic Middle School in San Francisco are being treated after accidentally ingesting rat poison. According to San Francisco Fire Department spokesperson Mindy Talmage, six students found what they thought were pieces of candy and ate them. When they realized it was rat poison they notified school officials, who called the fire department.

What school is this, a preschool ? No it says middle school. In the US middle schools are about grades 6, 7 and 8. In many places driver's ed starts in grade 9 or 10. Let me get this straight, a couple of years from now these kids will be driving around, partying and fucking, yet do not yet know not to eat something if they don't know what it is ? That's alot of learning for two years or less.

The Parents are outraged ? What the fuck, were these pellets in cndy wrappers ? Dispensed in vending machines ? What ? Most likely they were laying on the floor in corners. Are these the same type of  "Parents" who apparently teach their children to eat paint chips off the walls inducing the prohibition on lead based paint ? I would think that likely. Because of their wisdom, now I have to pay about $50 a gallon for paint with titanium oxide instead of lead, unless I want garbage paint.

These "Parents" should be outraged, and take up arms - against themselves. This whole thing is fucking ridiculous.

If this was a daycare or kindergarten, I'd feel differently, but this kids are certainly big enough to know better.

I just looked back and realized - EIGHT of them ! ?

What kind of...... errr, did these things taste good or what ?

Well if nothing else they performed product testing on that nontoxic poison. I think it's time to alert the Darwin Awards committee. I could understand if these were kindergardeners........
