21. You know what? The disturbed minds are the school administrators who think

life is so worthless they can treat a neighbor like this, and bully a child to his death.

These administrators should be arrested for murder.

They could have, instead, introduced him to the medical marijuana clinic owner here in Spokane. Clinic for sale for $2.7 million dollars.

Between the weed and the real estate, the owner, the same age as the school admins, will make more in a year than any of those school administrators and teachers will make in their lifetimes. Perhaps more than they could teach the kids in their charge to make, incompetent buffoons that they are.

Sad fuckers. They need to get what they deserve.

As far as that ratio of 75 to 1, it seems incredibly self-serving. Some teachers may not soak switches in vinegar for the black kids any longer (because, as the teachers back then confided in Kozol's book, "Their skins are thicker, you know&quot .

Today they are much slicker. They don't need clubs, they have the police. The "School to Prison Pipeline" in Chicago, and many other cities, stands as proof.

Heck, they don't even have to send them to prison. For an example of slavery without chains - Texas, where they re-wrote the textbooks to make slavery appear more voluntary. It took a PARENT to complain - not one of those so-called teachers appeared to be willing to risk their salary by refusing to teach white lies that support white privilege disseminated by the school system. http://www.nbcnews.com/video/parents-complaint-about-textbook-goes-viral-540638275928

I worked as a grad student at a university where I got my degree in adult ed. One of the classes I taught was ed philosophy.

I never will forget the day one of them came in, so proud of the fact that she gave an F to a kid for not coloring what he was supposed to. She was congratulated by some of the other students.

This was what she was trained to do on the job. I thought, "Great, the kid only has 11 years of this left".

The schools talk john dewey and experience, but in practice far too many adhere to michelle duggar and blanket training.

Then again, I left before graduation, got a GED, and joined the Navy, because teachers and parents were busy turning over the school buses transporting the black kids being sent there.

It's no wonder that black parents send their kids out thinking there is a target on their backs. It's a sorry school system that paints it there.

People ask why there is so much hate. It's because it is being taught, at home, and at school.

I notice opinions vary on this, especially if people get paid to do this and get all defensive. Figures. Proof that they care more about themselves than they do about the kids.
