Too late. The NEA already snagged her to teach common core math.

No, these were not unknowing actions. First-time .. and sometimes even second- and third-time bouncers .. received counseling and, usually in the third-time scenario, non-judicial/company-level punishment. These were people who, over a period of time, went from bank to bank, opening accounts with small amounts of money, received their checkbooks, and then proceeded to write large amounts of checks against nothing in their account.
I just thought it was always amusing that their first statement to investigators was "I still had checks left, so I thought I could use them".

Even if it had been Arabic, how would writing on a piece of paper like that be terrorism? I’m not inventive enough to figure out a scenario. But there probably is one, I guess.

Isn’t that a chemical equation rather than a math equation? Looks like it is referring to various radioactive isotopes having some kind of reaction.

If this is the case, they surely deserve to be court-martialed, plus dishonorable discharge from the service

It only took 40 years for the excellent work of the federal Dept of Education to make a difference. This is the payoff for all that increased spending.
To: Kaslin
With Common Core, cursive is not being taught.
In 40 years anybody writing cursive may as well be writing in Arabic for all anyone in the younger generations will be able to understand.

I hate having to fill out forms in print. I do better filling them out in cursive writing and they should teach it in schools again.

It sounds funny -- until you remember that this kind of nonsense clogs the system and prevents it from responding properly to genuine threats.
We need to treat people who make these kind of bogus "threat" complaints the same way we treat people who prank-call 9-1-1 lines and ask to speak to Ben Dover.

I thought that was the squaw on the hippopotamus. No, the squaw of the hippopotamus is equal to the sons of the squaws of the other two hides.

No doughnuts for you
And yet Menzio's flight from Philadelphia to Syracuse on Thursday night was delayed by more than two hours after the woman sitting next to him told the crew she was worried about her seatmate. The woman, whose identity was not revealed and is believed to be in 30-something, initially told a flight attendant that she was feeling too ill to travel, an American Airlines spokesman told the Washington Post.
But when they escorted her off the plane, the woman told the crew she had actually been feeling suspicious of Menzio and wanted to be booked on another flight.

The “Big Education” establishment is a way to route funds to Democrats.
So that’s exactly what I would expect.
