ALBANY - State bureaucrats have identified a potentially deadly hazard facing our children this summer - freeze tag.

That's right, officials have decided the age-old street game - along with Wiffle Ball, kickball and dodgeball - poses a "significant risk of injury."

And classics like Capture the Flag, Steal the Bacon and Red Rover are also deemed dangerous in new state regulations for day camps.

"It looks like Albany bureaucrats are looking for kids to just sit in a corner in a house all day and not be outside," said state Sen. Patty Ritchie (R-St. Lawrence County).

"I don't think Wiffle Ball is a dangerous sport."

The Health Department created a list of supposedly risky recreational activities - which also includes more perilous pursuits like archery, scuba and horseback riding - in response to a state law passed in 2009.

The law sought to close a loophole that legislators said allowed too many indoor camp programs to operate without oversight."..

NY and CA politicians are so progressively retarded it's hilarious.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

"Play 60!" Right!
The NFL and Michelle Obama encourage this but then kids find themselves limited with what they can do.
Can't play football for sure, might get a concussion.

Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.

Boys learn how to be a man from their fathers, not from what games are allowed or disallowed at school. And when a father is constantly whining, crying and getting all upset over nothing, the kid is going to end up being the same kind of over emotional pansies, that you guys are.

So be a man, nothing really bothers a real man, they are strong and if you can't be strong, at least try to act like you are around your children.

I can't believe a kid has to teach grown "men" these things..
