" Unit Five is in favor of any measure which would secure more money for them - that is their security plan....how to secure their exorbitant salaries and pensions. Now if they could only get rid of those pesky students which tie up their day, they could sit around longer and discuss more ways of fleecing the taxpayers for more money. "

" Do you really think that if the students can't remember to carry their id badge now that they will remember in the future with this new 'I Pass" thing? Or are we going to put a tracker chip in each of the kids so we can find out if they go the wrong direction and them zap them like people do with dogs? "

" Ok so lets get the administration under control first before we have tracking devices. I feel each principal should take a step back and see how stupid of an idea this is. "

" this is just plain insane let track the children with RFID like pallets in a warehouse. What this really means is that each child will have a radio transponder probably just a little more powerful version of the "proximity cards" that State Farm uses. There will be "gateway" scanners on each bus, each building door, if they really intend to track walking routs there will be ones at given points along the sidewalk. I think that this is just plain weird and frankly a little freaky. Don't fall under the "think of the children" mentality. All that gear is a total wast of money. "

" "Those who give up freedom for security deserve neither freedom nor security" People who will give up their freedoms and privacy for security fail to see the bigger picture here. Americans are the proverbial "Frog in the boiling water". The gov't keeps turning up the heat slowly and we won't realize until it's too late to jump, that we're being cooked! "

" This trend toward tracking everyone is disturbing. I agree with "George Orwell" just posted. Will someone bring forth some reality? The prophecy in Revelations 13:16, 17 is right up to date where no one can buy or sell without the mark of the beast. This new idea means that no one can get on the bus without their ID or walk on the other street. Why do we want to give up our privacy? This fits right in with the "Real ID" that will track you wherever you go. Also, the information you have to give to get a passport to go to Canada or anywhere else is invasive. When you get home, they want to know where you are going and what transportation you are taking to get there. "

" Security is just a function of money...how secure do you want to make our schools ? "

" Maybe we should just act like Big Brother under the guise of "protecting" our children. We would know exactly where everyone is at all times. Sounds like perfect control to me. "
