I understand that Clorox samples were given to children in Colorado.

Children at Coal Creek Canyon K-8 in Golden were given samples and encouraged to bring them home to their parents.

I understand that your direct marketing department sent samples to the teachers with a letter telling them to give the samples to the parents.

What were you trying to do by entering the school system in order to market your product?

Do you think it is right that a Clorox spokeswoman put the blame on the teachers for the fact that children were given clorox cleaning wipes heavily impregnated with chlorine?

Why are you sending these items to school teachers?

Are you aware of the crisis in our nations schools as we all, as Americans, try to clean up the educational mess that has led to the loss of American jobs and the possible crippling of our economy?

Is Clorox such a dirty company that they have to peddle their goods to a captive audience?

What would happen if Clorox sent samples to hospitals and left a box next to each wounded and diseased person so that they could give the samples to family members?

How about prisons? Will Clorox be sending samples to prisoners so that the prisoners could then pass the samples on to visitors or perhaps their victims?

The schools in the Jefferson County School District are in trouble as it is. Ideas abound about selling advertising space and special deals with candy and soft drink manufacturers - the education of our children is being put secondary to the profit motive.

Clorox had no right to do what it did. I think it would be appropriate for the Jefferson County School District to switch to another cleaning solution.

The Jefferson County School District board and PTA need to be put on notice as well. What exactly happened in this case?

Will Clorox now leave our children alone or will the company continue to harass schoolteachers and our children?

I believe Dr. Cindy Stevenson, the Superintendent of the Jefferson County School System in Colorado needs to step down.

Clorox needs to take a step back away from our children.

The United States of America is spending billions of dollars a year to educate our children - not turn them into delivery boys for the Clorox company.

Some of the younger children wiped their faces with the material that they were given.
There is no apology that can make up for this.
This was no mistake that can be passed over and forgotten.

Where does Colorado stand in relation to its children and schools? Can anyone send anything they want to a school and have it handed out? If a company like Clorox does not respect school property then it is no surprise that drugs and mayhem dog our children’s school days and police must stand guard in the hallways.

For shame, Colorado, for shame.
