Education: As serious crimes in schools soar, teachers unions in New York and other cities are pushing back against new softer student conduct codes inspired by the president's national anti-discipline strategy.

New York public schools are dealing with escalating classroom chaos after adopting minority-friendly discipline policies that the Education Department pushed to close so-called "racial disparities" in suspensions and expulsions. Educrats have been threatening school districts with lawsuits and funding cuts wherever if finds disparities.

High-school kids are getting "warning cards" for offenses that normally would result in a criminal summons and suspension, such as drug possession and disorderly conduct.

Liberal New York Mayor Bill de Blasio says crime is down in the schools, but it's not. It's just that schools are ignoring it. The only thing that's down is suspensions.

Everything liberals touch turns to cow dung. And they continue to get elected over and over again.

Everything he touches turns to sh*t.

The fact that the suggestions and pressure of a US President can cause crime to rise in local schools in NY or Minnesota simply shows we have lost the Republic.

In America’s past, the President had no say over education. That was left to States, and really, was believed to be the purview of towns and parents, who created the most educated populace on the face of the Earth at its time.

Now ours has become a fascist-like top-down system, where the Dear Leader controls the funds, the punishments and the bureaucracy to bring political control into even the classroom.

Well, D'OH!!

This goes beyond stupidity and solidly into the Twilight Zone.

Never in 4000 years of human history has that been possible.

Fruits and perverts and human debris peeing in the streets will make it work?

Seriously?

Yup. The people love them, so I'm supposed to feel sorry for them?

Maybe the policies did not backfire. The negative results could be exactly what the Sultan and his Puppet Masters want.

Nice is good, mean is bad. Don’t be mean ‘cause mean is bad. Nice is better than mean.

Hugs are good, thugs are bad. Don’t be a thug ‘cause thugs are bad. Hugs are better than thugs.

I wish I could find a video of this from Malcolm in the Middle ;)

The Republic can now only be restored with fire and blood. It has come to this.

“Everything liberals touch turns to cow dung. And they continue to get elected over and over again.”

That’s because the cow dung is allowed to vote.

I disagree. He turned North Africa, parts of sub-Sahara Africa, and the middle east among other things into Gold for the radical muzzies.

I have one better! A disproportionate amount of black men are being falsely arrested for quality of life crimes because they pull it out and urinate in the streets while you walk the same streets with your wife and kids so deblasio has instructed the NYPD to overlook this and donot arrest.

I would never put a white child in a school that has any sort of substantial black population because if this Obama/Holder rule.

and I have black kids whom I would have never put in such schools because the last thing I would want to have my children learn is that there are special privileges to skin color.

Government schools are toxic to children. Private or homeschooling is the only way to go...ever.

I remember me and some other guys a long time ago joked on homeschooled kids, we thought that if you are homeschooled you were too different to public school, nowadays homeschool does not sound like a bad thing or private school.
