Busing to achieve racial balance.

That’ll fix the problem.........in the Twilight Zone.

[WayneS]

That’s not possible. Chicago doesn’t allow regular citizens to own guns.

PLUS, by Federal law, Schools are “Gun Free Zones”, doncha know!

[Oldexpat]

Sounds like they have a shortage of “parents”. A shortage of “fathers”.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Another cancer left over from community organizers?

[End Times Sentinel]

Just a naked grab for more funding by grossly exaggerating a problem.

We wanted to talk with Brian Samuels, the school official analyzing the data. He wasn't available.

First and foremost, define "student".

Is that someone who actually attends school? Someone who's of age to attend school? Someone equal to or younger than the oldest person in school? Do we count college aged students? Continuing education students and their peers?

Anyway, sooner or later, everyone gets shot.

Quagmire!

...failed policies of the last 16 months...time to pull out of Chicago...

Wow, one would think that Obama’s city would be the shining example for us all.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. 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.

Now that’s education reform you can believe in.

Put people who commit crimes with guns away for a long long time, and execute the murderers.

allow citizens to carry guns for protection....

watch the crime drop.

[Dilbert56]

That compares to 293 lost to hostile fire in Iraq over the same 16 months. Guess the Zero’s priorities should be to end the wars in Chicago, Afghanistan, and then Iraq.

[ClearCase_guy]

Redeploy to Detroit!

No, wait a minute, that won't do ...

[Dick Bachert]

Mrs. Schumer's litte fella', Chucky, recently had a close call with one of those evil guns.

"508 Chicago School Students Shot In 16 Months"

BS! They made it up!

[FreedomFerret]

I propose an Urban Draft at age 14 and let some Drill Sgt’s adjust attitudes.

[Kansas58]

Obama says that teachers and schools that fail should not be rewarded.

How much Federal and State money has Obama sent, to Chicago schools?

I read that Chicago teachers and administrators are among the highest paid in the country. Why did McCain stay so silent about the high murder rate, within the Chicago schools?

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Total lies!

Look at these three facts:

1. Guns are illegal in Chicago

2. It is illegal to shoot children

3. Schools are gun free zones

Obviously this can’t be happening.

[Billthedrill]

Clearly the only way to deal with the shootings in Chicago is to make sure that anyone wanting to own a shotgun in Albuquerque is jailed. If they try to obey the law, that is.

That isn't even a joke - it is literally what these people are all about.

[Le Chien Rouge]

Twenty-five Chicago Public School students have been murdered this year.

Silence from the following is deafening:
1) NEA
2) Richard Daily and the the city leadership
3) Teacher Unions
4) NAACP
5) Media—only white surburban students get coverage if there is a shooting
6) “the Govenor of Illinois to be named later”
7) parents who should be going ape-sh!t over this!!!
