Gangs, Sex, Test Scores Adressed At Hispanic-Only...
GAINESVILLE (CBS 11 / TXA 21) ― A Gainesville student says she and her Hispanic classmates were singled out for an assembly about poor test scores, gangs and sex.
Why would they do this? Why are school officials so stupid? They lack any kind of common sense; otherwise, they would have known that this would cause controversy. I don’t even know what to say to anyone right now, except that I...

No Chrarges Filed For False Rape Accusations
NEW YORK (CNN) — Criminal charges will not be filed against the 18-year-old college freshman who falsely accused five men of raping her in a dormitory bathroom at Hofstra University, an official said Friday.
How can someone vouch for the death penalty for rape charges? Especially after a case like this?
Women like this make me sick. These women discredit real rape victims. They make...

Red Skins Booed At By Dim-Wits
The Redskins have a request for the fans who sat through their 9-7 victory against the Rams on Sunday. They’d like them to stop booing, no matter how many times uncreative offensive play-calling causes their offense to stall inside the red zone. An understandable request, but they may get a more positive response if they stop calling their fans “dimwits” when making it in the...

Cops Relax While On Supposed Drug Raid
The Story: In the midst of a drug raid on a house that apparently took nine full hours and cost $4,000, cops apparently were distracted by Wii bowling. Reports say they started the game up within 20 minutes of entering the house and spent hours playing it.
This is another sad example of an abuse of power by police officers. There is practically nothing that makes me more angry than power-mad...

Administrators Force Religion Onto Students, Get...
(Sept. 18) — A judge has ruled in favour of two Florida school administrators who faced contempt charges for saying a prayer at a school luncheon, according to a group that helped represent them.
This was probably not the first offence, either. These administrators have probably been praying over the announcements, at sports games, award ceremonies, etc. These men are forcing their personal...

One Of The Best Disruptions Of All Time
(CNN) — The reaction to Kanye West’s hijacking of the microphone from Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards came quickly and unequivocally.
Now of course KanYe West feels very foolish and regrets his actions. Even though Beyoncé did not win Best Female Video, she did win Video of the Year. KanYe, because of his outburst, was not at the award show...

Sex Offender Caught Roaming School With Gun
NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. — Officials at a Volusia County elementary school have a lot of questions to answer after police arrested a sexual predator who had been roaming the school’s campus for two days. Kareen McNeal was arrested Thursday night and is being held without bond.
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: United States education definitely needs reform. This is a...

Women Face Trial For Super-Gluing Cheating Man's...
The Story: A Wisconsin judge ruled there is enough evidence for four women to stand trial for their roles in a staged motel tryst that ended with a man tied to a bed, his penis super-glued to his stomach, a lawyer for one of the women said Wednesday.
…
The man’s wife and two of his girlfriends hatched a plot to lure him to a Stockbridge motel on July 30 and confront him after...

Dog-Killer Speaks In Schools
PHILADELPHIA (Sept. 8) - Michael Vick, speaking to a group of Philadelphia high school students Tuesday, warned against the dangers of peer pressure and offered himself as a cautionary tale of what can happen when someone is a follower instead of a leader.
Whatever. Do whatever you want with Michael Vick. Let him become a role model for children.
He speaks about “resisting peer...

Students Suspended From School For Improper Dress
INDIANAPOLIS — Another 14 students were suspended Thursday from Northwest High School in an ongoing rift between students and administrators over the school’s dress code.
This is not about respect, this is about control. The leaders of schools all have the same idea in mind. They just want to control. They want to be in control. I don’t know what it is about school officials,...

NJ "Teacher" Sells Grades
TRENTON, N.J. (Sept. 1) — A New Jersey social studies teacher has been charged with accepting cash from students looking to improve their grades. Thirty-year-old Megan Laboy is accused of collecting more than $1,400 from Colts Neck High School students during the 2008-09 school year.
What a lazy get-away! How can she even tell people that she is a teacher, when she isn’t.
This woman...

PITTSBURGH — A recent Penn Hills High School graduate who was banned from commencement ceremonies and prom after wearing a “not guilty” shirt to school was represented by the American Civil Liberties Union at an appeal hearing Tuesday.
Lawyers told Judge Robert Gallo that David Hood’s constitutional rights were violated in an incident that started with an argument with...
