“The Department of Education has launched investigations of at least five school systems because of their disparate black-white discipline rates. The Department of Justice has already put the Barnwell, South Carolina, school district under a costly consent decree, complete with a pricey outside consultant, and is seeking similar control of other districts. The theory behind this school discipline push is what Obama officials and civil rights advocates call the “school-to-prison pipeline.” According to this conceit, harsh discipline practices—above all, suspensions—strip minority students of classroom time, causing them to learn less, drop out of school, and eventually land in prison.”

“School to prison” pipeline.Goes a lot further back than that. Try “birth canal to prison” pipeline. The culture has to change not the schools. No amount of mandated discrimination vs other cultures is going to fix a disfunctional culture of children born out of wedlock in a environment where education is not appreciated.

The lost time that discipline of minorities causes for them is a benefit to the rest of the students that want to learn.

I guess the little shits ought to stop screwing off in class, then. Call me what you will, but I saw it when I was growing up in a small, southern Missouri town; I saw it again in EVERY school or class I attended during 20 years in the Army; I saw it when St. Louis City bused their youths out to my sister's and brother's school district; and I see it again with my kids because St. Louis City STILL buses their youths out to our school district. In general, negroes have zero respect for education or anyone who values it, and their classroom behavior mirrors their behavior in other circumstances.
