That's because they become so easy to lose.

I've always thought the the most effective defense against terrorism was to make everyone entering the country eat a strip of bacon (or ham for the health nuts out there).

Then again, I think that instead of dropping bombs on caves in Afghanistan, we should be dropping 1000 lb bags of pig shiat.

No, it's babies that shouldn't be in camoflage:

1. If they crawl away, how are you going to find them?

2. The impracticalities of taking a baby hunting should be obvious. He can't hold a gun, and he's going to give your position away (kicking, screaming). Camoflage won't help.

They make pretty good bait if you're hunting hunting animals though! Just make sure you have a spare in case you're not a fast enough shot or there's more than one. Babies are a lot of labor don't want it wasted all at once, you know.

Dear Laraine Perri,

In case you didn't notice, your panties are unnecessarily in a wad. Go to your nearest Christian Science Reading room and calm the fark down.

There is no getting around the fact that camouflage has threatening connotations.

As do the bright colors you're promoting. Dress your daughter in red and other bright colors? Are you trying to turn her into a whore?

Good grief.

Kids like camo. It's cool looking.

You can pick up crack babies pretty cheap a few days before the welfare checks come out. Their thin, feeble cries really bring in the coyotes, too.

Hmm, I didn't think of that. Does the baby camoflage trick bears into thinking they're part of nature? Like, a bear knows not to eat a baby wearing an Addidas track suit, because it's not natural?

I'm not sure if he still does this, but he used to appear regularly as an NPR commentator. Those were often obscenely funny. I couldn't get into reading the books, but I bet his presentation in the audiobooks makes for some worthwhile listening.

Don't be ridiculous. It's like smoking after a night of drinking--you don't have to bring your own, just find someone else with a few.

The 2 reasons to wear camouflage:

1. You are in the military, on-base/in-theatre.
2. You are a hunter, in the woods, hunting.

Anything else is just a bad fashion statement...

My 4-year-old daughter had a camouflage sweatshirt with helicopters worked into the pattern that was left over from a Halloween costume (she wanted to be a helicopter pilot) and she would wear it two or three times a week while it still fit.

I didn't mind the military aspects of the clothes (I used to wear camouflage and military uniform parts all the time growing up) but I didn't want people thinking I was some sort of redneck deer hunter.

And I'm talking specifically about the redneck deer hunters who take their kids out with them at 4 a.m. during deer season, and then drop the kids off at school in little deer hunting jackets on four hours sleep with a pickup bed full of beer cans. I don't want them trying to bond with me because my daughter likes helicopters.

Her little nerd is in a "tiny button-down shirt with stripes the colors of popsicles" and she's sassing the cammo moms?! Root beer popsicles or cherry? This is important.

I agree with this.

Unless you're taking your kid hunting, and even then they should be 12 or something. And don't give them a gun and put that orange thing on them.

But camo to school screams "redneck" and you don't want your kid getting labeled.

And stay away from tie dye. Just because you were a hippy doesn't mean your kid is cool with it.

My 15yr old's favorite clothing is a pair of Cabela's Fusion 3D camo jeans and a plain white t-shirt. I guess that'll somehow render him socially undesireable despite his honor-roll status, natural intelligence and ability to detect bullshiat from several states away.

You, Loraine, are an inept twat.
