A closer look
« on: November 08, 2003, 06:35:33 AM »
Did anyone see that last night? They are arresting 10 year olds for making a mess? They arrested teenage boys for playing cops and robbers with paper guns? What's next, farting?

Guess I didn't since I don't know what you're talking about. Sounds a lot like what's been happening in our public schools over the last couple of decades though. Liberals trying to turn our boys into girls. Makes me ill thinking about it.

It wasn't liberals arresting them. Just the opposite.

Nope, nada. Anyone see the show last night?

There was a group of ten year old girls that went into a room and messed it up pretty good(through flour around and messed up some papers), then they left with some lollipops. So the school calls the police, they question the ten year old, then arrest her. kinda drastic.

The boys who were playing cops and robbers with paper guns I didn't see alot of.

They have a zero tolerance policy at the school. But if you are going to arrest kids who chew gum, you might as well have the classes at state....prison.

Zero Tolerance is another fine Conservative program.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Well, for violence and such, it makes sense. But for 10 year olds for making a mess?

You can't spank em, but we can arrest them, nice.
