FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) — A school bus driver was released from jail on $150 bail after she drove a busload of students off their route to join her daughter in a fight in front of another school. Leslie Mae Jones, 33, of Fort Myers, quit her job Friday, a day after she was charged with breach of peace. Apparently, while Jones was driving students home, her daughter called her from a cell phone and told her she was in a fight with other teens. Jones drove to that school and allegedly left about 30 middle school students on her bus, with the engine running, to join her 13-year-old daughter in a brawl at a school for children with behavioral problems. Neighborhood then kids jumped on the bus and attempted to start fights with the students left on the bus, police said. Jones was also ticketed for leaving children unattended in a running vehicle and for leaving a running vehicle.
Thousand monkeys typing couldn't have typed this in 1000 yrs.
I'm speechless.
Scrappleface, right?

Florida again, huh? You reap what you sow. How can God bless and protect them when they choose their own ways?
Well, she saved them having to fire her.
Naw. This is too weird for Scappleface.
Yes.
It must be those flying cockroaches. Maybe Floridians are breathing in too much flying cockroach excrement. Excessive inhalation of cockroach dung probably interferes with the synapses.
Florida probably has the same problems eastern PA has - too many New Yorkers and Jerseyites moving in and causing mayhem.
Fort Myers is on the left coast of Florida. But it is the right coast (conservative) and the right coast (correct) as well.
Fort Myers is filled to the brim with Indianians. Hoosier mayhem!
Up here in Sarasota we are under siege from Philly, Boston, Concord....you get the idea.
There was a time when I seriously thought of joining the other old folks in Florida – no longer. The Big Island of Hawaii or Montana are sounding better all the time.
I've lived in Florida for 9 years now, and have been trying to figure it out. I'm still wondering, but have an inkling it has such problems are because it's so transient.
Lots and lots of lowlifes. And Tampa, although you never hear it in the news stories, has always been a center for adult "entertainment". (There are 3 places right outside the entrance to my development). So many people here have children without being married, and don't stay in the same neighborhood for more than 2 years.
And before you say there's lots of places like that, I've lived other places. Florida is different.
It's a great place to live if you have no money, like drugs and cheap women, and are looking for a creepy trailer park to live in. I mean, you can always find one where no one else has teeth either...
No arguments here.
Florida is a glorious, tragic experiment.
It's the worst place I've ever loved.
It does have its own cachet, doesn't it?
But the neighborhood I used to live in has THREE sex offenders living within 2 blocks of me.
