All just an extension of the needs of a few to irritate the rest. You will see similar behavior all over the place. Now many wannabe thug or couldabe thugs will use the present tensions of our times to play with for their own amusement.

Last week, in a local Walgreens, some workers are stocking shelves. One has a small radio and has thuggish hip hop on it. Along with the music came the slang words and way of talking. Come on guys, I wanted to say to them. Why on earth are you even listening to gangster rap and most of you can barely speak english. They were from Vietnam.

So I am beginning to suspect, that some people as a form of defiance or showing their true "colors" ..lol..........will always try and see what happens if they play gangster thug music around others.

So-called "thug" music is listened to by people of all races not just black people if that is your implication. There is no color to music. Do you mean rap music, heavy metal, etc.?

I believe "thug music" was defined in this thread to refer to rap music which contained cuss words and racial slurs like the n word. And yes, "thug music" is listened to by people of all races not just black people. And it's racist and derogatory and inappropriate for young children to be listening to no matter what race or color you are. It's fine if an adult chooses to listen to it. But to force a small daycare aged child to listen to it at high hearing-damaging volumes is abusive. No matter the race or color of said child. Turn it off at the daycare and when your kid is in the car, turn it back on after you leave and you are alone in the car. If you can't do that, you're not a parent, you're a joke.

Family members in New Jersey have their kids taken from the car into the facility by staff members to speed the process and alleviate traffic jams. A quick look at the California and Illinois requirements show that logs must be kept for signing each child in and out but do not require the parent or guardian to do so. Both states also show regulations for providing transportation which would make it impossible for the parent to sign the kids in and out of the facility.

Why has no one posted a link to the law they claim requires this universally or even in a single state? And how did so many get away from the original topic here to talk about what they believe to be pertinent laws not related to that?

Because nobody cares about this particular tangent. It's irrelevant to the discussion.

You brought it up. In post 52, Kibbiekat postulated that the parent would have to get out of the car, so that the music would not be on for very long. Then in post 57, you expressed great concern over the fact that someone might assume something as heinous as a parent having to get out of the car at daycare drop off all over the world and everywhere and is that really the law everywhere and outrage!

No I doubt the daycare would do anything. If it happens again and you still have a problem with it then say something to them.

That's the problem with people these days. If someone has a problem with something they always want to complain to someone else and have them take care of it. If it's that big of a deal to you then act like an adult and handle it yourself.

Thug music? I wish certain people would come up with a better term for the n word. Thug is played out and every black person you see is not one. HOWEVER, that music is annoying. It's called trap music and it is awful. I will be glad when it goes out of style.

Kibbie asserted rather than postulated. If we're going to have decent discussions here we should be accurate and not make sweeping erroneous claims, even if they seem to bolster one's argument.

At first I thought that was a typo, but then I looked it up, and it's a real thing! Cool, learn something new everyday!

Since the OP is about an adult in a car, not a bus, blasting music, the point about transportation is irrelevant. I'm lost what your point even is. The OP is in New Jersey ... so staff members could theoretically get the kid out of the car ... so the blasting music is--what? Less likely to be turned off? That's the topic, remember?

I think nobody cares but you. You introduced this tangent. Go ahead and be the winner on this one.
