When this went "teacher bashing" I thought of you Bear and know you( as in all teachers) are not all that bad .
I'm just flustered that a system can justify and the people let it that patting down school children is OK .. if they had tried that shit when I was that age.. almost 30 years ago.. I'd like to think my parents would have went ape shit ... as well as the ACLU and everyone else. how can raising children in an environment that promotes being patted down for nothing more then going to school produce " good people" ?
I can't even put it in to words properly I'm so pissed about it .
They justify it by telling themselves that "the children belong to the community", "if it'll just save one", etc. If parents/people would stop sitting idly by complaining on forums and actually confront the problem... it would stop in a heart beat. After all, YOUR tax dollars are paying the teachers salaries. However, just like our debt ceiling and all the other issues everyone is like "we'll take care of it on the next round".
