TANKER WRECK DALLAS

DALLAS -- A major accident on Interstate 30 at Cooks Lane shut down parts of the highway overnight, NBC 5 News reported.

The lanes were reopened by about 6:30 a.m. Saturday. Authorities said several roads that intersect with I-30 East also were closed by the accident.

An accident involving a car and a fuel tanker caused the shutdown, police said.

One of the drivers was taken to a local hospital. There was no word on the person's condition.

An officer directing traffic also was injured when his foot was run over by a passing car, authorities said.

STUDENT REACTION TO TEACHER FIRINGS [SHOWED BERG VIDEO IN SCHOOL]

Pamela Harris, 17, did watch.

"It was a teaching matter," she said. "I mean, we're in war, and that's what happens, and he was showing us."

"I don't think they should get fired or anything else. It's history. It's part of life that's going on now," Pamela's mother, Vickie, said.

Student Kristy Vanderwalt didn't think the video was a problem.

"I don't think it's a problem at all that kids saw it. I think that we're all old enough to realize, and if you are sick to the stomach or you don't think that you can handle it, then you are almost an adult and you should be able to say, 'No, I don't want to watch it.' And if you watch it, then you have to deal with the consequences," Vanderwalt said.



These kids get it....Too bad their leftists DemoRAT parents don't!!
