I live in an Austin suburb—if any of this is true, I certainly haven’t heard of it.
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
I know this is an older article, but I did a search and it hadn't been posted.
Welcome to the U.S.S.A.
This kid is well on her way to receiving a SSI check (paid for by you and me) for life.
Around here these cops are called "resource officers."
I wonder why the school district ~ that's Austin, right, the Leftwingtard capital of the SW, oh so Progressive and modern ~ is mainstreaming kids with bipolar disorder.
And who'se that utterly contemptible woman running the class who calls the cops on her bipolar student?
I think something is screwy in this story ~ although if it's true I'd be checking the principal's basement to see if he's got people chained to the wall or something, real medieval like.
Maybe it is a matter of what “being arrested” means. Perhaps being arrested is the same as being sent to the vice principal’s office for discipline.
I remember that in my senior year, a teacher who was assigned lunch duty, sent our whole lunch table to the vice principal’s office and gave us all school detentions for singing Happy Birthday at the lunch table.
The only reason that we could figure was that someone had drawn a picture of tinkerbell and stuck it to his door, and that he must have concluded that it was us. As far as I knew, it wasn’t. He was this little gay guy, but we didn’t do it.
Everything is fine. Checks and balances, Tree of liberty, etc. |
“The result, says the Appleseed report, is that “school-to-prison pipeline” in which a high proportion of children who receive tickets and end up in front of a court are arrested time and again because they are then marked out as troublemakers or find their future blighted by a criminal record.”
They’re arrested time and again because they’re feral and haven’t moved up to the big time of committing the usual assortment of violent crimes. The sooner the rotten apples are ID’ed and removed from society the better.
I don’t believe this article is accurate.
I would like to see some proof of any of this.
Can we all agree that that the Communist public school experiment has failed, and it is time to try something else?

We homeschool our kids and we go the step further that our kids do not have Social Security numbers so the school districts and the social workers don’t even know they’re here. It’s much easier that way and worth the extra taxes.
Back in my hometown - Carmel Indiana, the school system had their police department but I think they discontinued it and are using the city PD as their officer instead.
Welcome to Amerika! What happened to Texas? I thought that they were freedom loving, gun toting dudes that didn’t put up with this kind of stuff.
The US has gone crazy and it’s not hard to see the cycle, single mothers (and divorced mothers) can’t handle the discipline so their kids are out of control, feminized schools that don’t know how to control kids any more, a legal system that has tied the hands of non-cop citizens in disciplining kids, out of control cops looking for any excuse to justify their existence, zero tolerance on just about anything and an industrial prison complex that profits off imprisoning large numbers of people. We are turning fascist far faster than I could have ever imagined.
When will they be getting SWAT teams?
Nothing is more fun to me than seeing the reaction of parents when their kids’ lives are RUINED, simply because they sent those kids to public schools.
The parents all act SHOCKED, but they all knew the chance they were taking, at least here in Texas (where this article was written), as just about EVERYONE knows the risks of sending kids to public schools. That’s why HUGE NUMBERS of us homeschool or send our kids to private schools (even if our crappy governor won’t help pay for it).
For other states...they’ll just have to ‘keep learning’, but for Texas, anyone who sends their kids to our public schools might as well play Russian Roulette on them.
What a circle jerk... these people are insane...
The Police, Teachers, and Givernment Workers are Unionized and are like PIRATES...

Why would anyone willingly send their child into an environment that poses a "danger to the teachers or the other students"? Huh?
I pity the children whose parents can not ransom them through homeschooling or private schooling. And..In many counties there are no private schools. The price-fixing government school cartel has created such a hostile environment for private schooling that all privates schools are now out of business.
Why do we expect children to put up with a hostile environment that would win an adult millions if it happened on the job? And...Then we play with the kids minds by telling them that, "These are the best years of your life!", or " Leaning to punch out a bully is good for you."
Many children are hopelessly abandoned to these Lord of the Flies environments by their parents and the entire community. How awful!
