Is he saying The Board of Education should be applied to their Seat of Knowledge equally?

Careful there. What you just said is a Hate Truth, and cannot be uttered.

Free speech: use it or lose it.

"...I just used your phrase “Hate Truth” and did a courtesy ping.

That should be a classic..."

I wish I could take credit for it, but I can't. However, I know gold when I see it, so I adopted it and try to use it often. I love the phrase; it has a lot of loaded subtext and underlying irony.

Everyone has a bias, including everyone here (as is apparent in many of the messages on this thread). People have biases for everything, including height, weight, personality, and so on. We could narrow down “biases” forever. People sometimes act on their biases.

But, that’s not the point. It doesn’t matter if you believe your group (whatever it may be) is being treated unfairly or if you believe another group isn’t.

The real point is: The government wouldn’t be enforcing guidelines on discipline if the vast majority of parents weren’t giving the government that power by putting their children into government-financed, government-run schools.

Part of the leftist agenda for a race war.

What garbage! The schools, especially in city (large and small) schools are chaotic and UNDISCIPLINED as it is! Minorities have and do run rough shod over the teachers and the entire school. Teachers are not allowed and therefore unable to get control of the classrooms, forget about the hallways!

"I’m going to start a business where I watch homeschooled kids so their parents can work."

OMG I need this so bad! Perhaps I will steal your idea and start my own business! Either way it would be an answer to a problem we have.

The treaty was really fun. If Tom did a better Russian accent, we could perform it for Cub Scouts campfire program.

Heck, I WANTED to be disciplined (expelled) when I was in high school I hated it so much. Even when I was called into the assistant principal’s office for cutting class though, he wouldn’t do it. My brother taught at my high school, so all he would say is, “I know you want me to expel you, but I’m so fond of your brother I can’t do it.” BTW, my high school was over half Hispanic.

Can there be any doubt that Obama is trying to be the totalitarian ruler of this nation? Who the he!! let this despicable man think he has the power? If we don’t get control of this government back to “We the People” it’s all over for this free nation.
