FEMA's kid coloring books seem fun

Based on the past couple years, FEMA appears to be the most incompetent government organization in history. This coloring book of disasters probably doesn’t do much to dispel that.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has removed a children’s coloring book from its web site following criticism over its inclusion of drawings of the September 11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. The coloring book, titled “A Scary Thing Happened,” is geared towards helping kids “cope with disasters,” and was prepared by a Minnesota crisis response team. Until yesterday, the coloring book could be downloaded from the FEMA web site. As seen below, the coloring book’s cover montage includes a drawing of one of the Twin Towers on fire as a plane approaches the second building.

Finally, I can break out the “Terrorist Brown” and “Fleeting Patriotism Blue” that have been sitting there dusty in my Crayola box for months.

I’m glad that FEMA is getting crap for this. It’s just so insensitive. I mean, how can you ask little children to be exposed to such a traumatic incident in our history? Plus how would it be fair that this coloring book gets produced while meanwhile my book “Uncle Theodore Teaches Me How to Be a Puppet” was ruled as too graphic? Kids need to learn somehow that you can turn childhood molestation into a marketable touring act.
