not a threat, just a suggestion and a prayer

May Clarence Thomas someday be pulled over by police and strip-searched for drugs.

For the other 8 justices who actually had a brain and realized children actually do have rights, THANK YOU!

Now, how about throwing out the rest of the zero-tolerance bullshit policies of the lazy-ass school system administrators while you're at it?

oh i know all about the one-sided view of "fighting" (everybody is guilty, including the one assaulted). In 6th grade, I got "licks" (our euphemism for corporal punishment) just for one shove of trying to get the bully off of me after having taken 5 hits. the teacher just happened to have walked around the corner and seen it right when i shoved, but missed all of what happened before that.

she says "fighting", dean gives us licks, absolutely no desire to actually determine the truth of anything.

and this was 28 years ago. it's worse now, I've seen.

I was never beaten for fighting. I was beaten* for being there.


* Actually the nun grabbed the hood of my jacket at yanked me back out of line when I was actually standing at attention and being good. The kid in front of me was talking to the kid in front of him. As a consequence the zipper on my jacket cut me and I went home bleeding.

And then my grandmother went to school and tore Sister Mary PsychoticBitch and Mother More Superior Than Thou each a new asshole. Ya din' fuck with my Nanny.
