Obama’s policy was “fixing the books”. It accomplished nothing. Bad kids were still bad kids.

I have often proposed, with tongue just slightly in cheek, that Washington should hire a group of convicted con men or other such criminal mentalities for a Devil’s Advocate Committee.

Then every bill/executive order proposed be submitted to them with the order to find a way around it.

I suspect we wouldn’t have a tenth of the problems in any new law because many of the “loopholes”, intended or not, would be discovered by this committee and not by the Trial By Fire the Public has to go through, as in the Parkland case.

Thank God. As a high school teacher it’s been hell for a few years. The “kids” and you know which ones I’m referring to, can do anything, and of course the teachers can do nothing. I mean it’s complete chaos; they roam the halls in packs, scream, jump up and down, hit each other, yell at teachers, refuse any request. I always tell my liberal friends that if they spent ONE day with me at my school, they would become far right conservatives. What a mess. Surprisingly, it’s only 13% of the population, if you understand me.

“Why any would teach with this considered okay amazes me.”

Because they are just as liberal brainwashed as the students they are now instructing as they were there first being instructed with the same ideology. They answered the bell to be fed the same stuff. But what you can say is “What goes around......”

A man in my neighborhood taught in a rough school in Boston

One September a delightful young male teacher from Nigeria arrived——and he had brought his wife and young child.

He was full of enthusiasm,and well liked.

When Christmas vacation rolled around,he quit——saying he couldn’t take the lack of discipline and the out of control students.

He moved his family back to Nigeria.

“He moved his family back to Nigeria.”

Sometimes an educated person can recognize a failure on the part of the leaders in their theologies of people. Liberals, and those they teach, do not recognize the possibility of just plain evil. But they do promote it by creating a path for it with no fail safes. They call it progress even though it violates the reality that what can happen, may. And there is always someone to accomplish it for all the wrong reasons. Humans are the most destructive creatures on earth.

I’m surprised we’ve lasted this long even with all the advantages of a better evolution than many other animals. While most animals harm to survive, we harm just for the hell of it. And we have been stupid enough to provide many more ways to do it in larger quantities than all the other creatures on earth combined. Plus we have no one higher on the food chain to stop us except ourselves. Blind leading the blind.

The only entertaining part of this is that you can plan on what a person can do, and then be amazed when that person beats you anyway with a new idea of destruction. The mayhem guy on TV isn’t far from wrong. It just is a case of severity not inevitability. It’s gonna happen because it is in the hands of people. And we are stupid enough never to figure in accidents let alone those that we are told about and create those fail safes. Not enough time in a day. Too much, too soon.

Merry Christmas,

rwood
