"I had an opportunity to visit Meridian and listen first hand to students," Perez told a gathering of attorneys in Boston. "They told me of being escorted from school for crying while being paddled. They told me of serving time in in-school suspension for wearing the wrong color socks.

And, of course, he took what the kids told him at face value.

In a classroom of 30-40, it takes only one misbehaving student to prevent any learning whatsoever from going on.

Mm-hmm. It starts with “Jerome, you’re not in uniform.” And Jeromes argues and yells obsceneties until you kick him out. When asked why he was kicked out, Jerome then says it was because he wasn’t in uniform.

The goal of the consent decree approved by a federal court on Thursday is to "prevent and address racial discrimination in student discipline," and to keep black students out of the so-called school-to-prison pipeline.

I'm not sure that letting black kids get away with unacceptable behavior is a positive step toward keeping them out of the school-to-prison pipeline. There is another option that would work well, but it requires parenting of those kids and a conscious choice to behave in a civilized manner and to accept responsibility for their own decisions and actions. My idea probably wouldn't work because racists on the other side would not permit an attempt.

So, the disruptors win.

Wanna bet the schools see an increase in problems within the classrooms?

It will be up to the teachers to maintain discipline — and they probably have little to no authority to act.

But, hey, fewer black kids will be kicked out of classes.

“In a classroom of 30-40, it takes only one misbehaving student to prevent any learning whatsoever from going on.”

That is what happens in the welfare reservation schools in Newark NJ; that is why there is so much competition (and demand) for charter schools.

“The court’s order is a powerful reminder to schools that they may not discriminate against students on the basis of race or another protected status in administering discipline.”

And the government gets that authority to create protected classes from....where, exactly?

I thought I read an article here last week that said that the “schools” were going to start encouraging the little turds to misbehave.

Even if this is considered as race-blindness which in theory is covered by the Constitution as amended, it is being measured in the wrong way — equality of outcome rather than of treatment of each individual problem student. This is saying that even if the blacks misbehave worse you can’t crack down on it worse. If we are so allergic to paddling today, then make them do something requiring effort at the school (wash floors, whatever), but this idea of giving them a day off from school when they misbehave is just begging them to misbehave.

It’s all about Fed matching funds.

The schools and unions really hate to miss out on the cash flow.

I started school in 1946 and from then until 1966 when I graduated from college (with a three-year interval when I was in the Army) I never went to school with anyone of color.

Neither did I get beat up by a gang nor called a “mother-f-—er” or other choice expletives of those people.

Some people are just plain lucky.

Which puts them in the school to prison pipeline.

Face it. Liberals hate blacks so much they will abort every black they can get their claws on, destroy their morality and character through the welfare state system and put those who survive into prisons - all so the liberals do not have to see or live with them.

Liberals certainly seem to be down in the spiritual hog wallow with much of black America.
