Did you notice the comments at the end of the article? There are a lot of people in that area that think it’s just fine that the kid was tossed out of school! Pretty sad, I have a real fear about the direction we are heading.
I'll take your word for it -- too many newspaper and TV sites are so larded up with graphics and off-site links that they take forever to load.
But if you want to see where we're headed, just look at the UK.
The problem is.....we have been heading there too long. There is now no turning back. We have become a "Nanny Society"!
This trend began during the sixties and it will overwhelm us before long. I know people who claim to be conservatives....but they still look to the Federal Government for most answers to their problems. They have forgotten the tenth amendment and when reminded of it.....look at you like a deer in the headlights....and then still claim to be conservative!
