I remember when the Supreme Court ruled for Alan Bakke in a case against Affirmative Action quotas in higher education.

There was some goof who spray painted his point of view on one of the nearby college buildings:

“SMASH BAKKE DESISION”.

Kind of made the argument for the other side.

That same Ft Worthless school ...

But didn't the school do the correct thing in this situation? We should applaud the school system for denying diplomas to students who have not earned them.

You know, I always thought that it was a Brooklyn thing that “hours” and “ours” are only homophones in the confines for an elementary school classroom — and maybe not even then.

After reading all these humorous Freep comments, it occurs to me: these people get to vote, and guess who they’ll be voting for... Is it any wonder that Dems want to keep the plantation intact and the new recruits stupid and dependent. Sad thoughts on a Memorial Day weekend.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yes, and no.

Yes, they are doing the right thing about refusing diplomas or even “walking” in the ceremony.

No,,,,Because they let these kids get as far as graduation.

Why weren’t they held back in elementary and middle school? so...Why is there deafening silence from the so-called “good” teachers about this problem? Huh? Maybe the so called “good” teachers are not good people, instead they have colluded with the lying teachers in deceiving these students and her families and passed these students from grade to grade.

The elementary, middle, and high schools in the lives of these kids have had two kinds of teachers and principals:

1) Bad teachers who lied to their students about their ability by passing them from grade to grade.

2) Enablers who helped the liars.

There are NO “good” teachers or principals in this school system. If there are any then they are not “good”. They are instead brain dead.

So...would you give your car, credit card, social security number, and bank account numbers to a liar or someone who would enable a liar? Hm?,,,No?,,,Well then, why would any rational parent entrust their child to these people???!!! ( crickets chirping!)

On Tuesday, children will still be sitting in seats in this government school. Amazing, what parents will do with their kids, but not their car or credit card.

I dunno. This is one of my most frequent errors. I form complete sentences in my head, and my fingers trascibe them aurally as I type. I type in whole-word units, and sometimes it just doesn’t come out right. Our/are and you/your are particular betes noires.

But in the particular situation these people were in, I would have brought in an educated ringer to proof the sign.
