The biggest hoot in this whole story, to me, is the idea that the schools are kept open on the weekends to provide “ a safe place”! Ha! How many kids in the US actually feel safer at school than at home? Obviously, safety varies from one facility to another, but I believe Obama’s implication is that the supervised, government environment is a warm, all- knowing, loving embrace compared to the cold, abusive,judgemental chaos of the wildly varied American family. Still, you can bet the farm that your average Philadelphia parents don’t want their kids anywhere near those inner-city schools on the weekend. They’d be safer with the crew from MTV’s “Jackass”.

GOOD POINT!!!
In many schools they would **literally** be safer in the local prison. I seriously mean this.
