Why is 'tag' now illegal?

Question

I here on the radio this morning the wonderful childrens games 'tag' is now banned in the state of South Caronlina. Any ideas why?

im not asking if it is illegal. i know it is, it just happened within this week...

Answer 1

tag is a violent game i used to play as ia child. i got some serious injuries playing that god-forsaken game. the devil must have taught it to me and my friends in our sleep, because theres no other explenatin for such treachery by small children. i used to come home iwth bruised and broken limbs playing tag. tag is the reason im in a wheelchair now. im glad tag is illegal, the world is starting to realize that the deaths must stop. my good friend bobby died tragicly during a tag game. that didnt stop me though, i was addicted. tag is a gateway game, i started with tag, but it wasnt long untill i was playing russian roullette and solitare. after 6 years of tag, i lost the use of my legs, and thats when i called out to god and asked for his forgiveness. its never to late to find the saviour in your heart. its never too late to stop playing tag, you hear that children, there is hope. follow the laws, they are meant to protect you.

Answer 2

well being that it never USED to involve shaving kittens, i believe the new adaptation of the game is becoming more and more popular and the feline community is really getting sharp end of the stick here.....

LOL i'm just playin.

Actually more and more activists are putting their foot down on youth entertainment and Censoring what children do, say, listen to, and see. They do this in a sense of creating a better tomorrow seeing how this modern generation is somewhat screwed up, they think they can control or at least veer the latter generation to grow up with a better sense of sensiblity. Therefore they're changing Fairy tails to be more positive (end of hanzel and gretle the kids have a happy picnic with the witch and become friends) (little red riding hood, the wolf hides the grandmother instead of eats her, the woodsman finds the grandmother and explains to the wolf that Lil Red and G-ma would love to SHARE their picnic with him as well), they're excluding games like Tag (because of the touching) london bridge (terrorism) and more... personally i think excluding kids from these things is only going to make them crave for it more and if anything promote finding alternate ways to do it. LET KIDS BE KIDS!! I think they forgot that they grew up on this stuff as well and they lead decent lives that have nothing to do as to whether they played Tag or not.

Long story short, it's not "GROPE! YOU'RE IT!!!" it's merely an innocent.... "TAG! YOU'RE IT!!!"

Deal with it.

Answer 3

Illegal is too strong a word. Not allowed by some school(s) and they actually had a good reason, and that is that a few kids were into tagging someone in inappropriate places, getting away with it because "we were just playing tag" like that is a license to grope.

Answer 4

Yes let's ban a childhood game rather than discipline the kids who are are being jerks. That seems to be the way our society deals with everything anymore. When are parents actually going to take responsibility for their children's behavior and correct it rather than worrying about interfering with their creativity, or making them feel bad? Children need guidelines and they need them enforced rather than punish the kids that aren't doing anything wrong.
