We’re supposed to be teaching these kids English and good writing skills, and we have a sentence that doesn’t even use the right tense of the verb (”slapping” instead of “slapped”.

I read a bit more from the photo of the book, and the author switches tenses. This author doesn’t even speak correct English.

“This author doesn’t even speak correct English”

That’s pretty racist of you, to expect correct English in a book for English class.

I mean sheesh already, you really set the bar too high!

You must be one of them wingers.
