We're the Only Ones Educational Enough

Rather, they’ve turned the schools into authoritarian microcosms of the police state, containing almost every aspect of the militarized, intolerant, senseless, overcriminalized, legalistic, surveillance-riddled, totalitarian landscape that plagues those of us on the “outside.” [More]
Well yeah, you want to prepare them for their place in the real world.

  1. I knew it is bad, but didn't know it's this bad. Glad I went to public schools in the long-ago 1960s. Though I had to deal with a egotistical principal and grudge-bearing vice-principal, it was nothing like the article described. Still remember when the kid at the next desk wrote an essay, "How I Committed Mase (sic) Murder". He was NOT dragged away by the "School Resource Officer" (we didn't have one) and interrogated at the police station. It was a joke, everyone knew it was a joke, and nothing happened to the kid, or the school.
