Someone needs to get a picture of school board members, principals and teachers buying booze, drinking or at a bar and then we’ll see how far their ridiculous zero policy goes.
So better to drink and drive and not call someone, is that it?
Five young people in their late teens and young 20s were killed in a car near my home about two weeks ago — the driver was bragging at a party “I’m drunker than anyone here yet I can still drive!” — and told the kids to “pile in!”
Five young people paid with their lives when the IDIOT DRUNK driver hit a bridge abutment on the offramp and the car burst into flames. Someone had to go tell each of their mothers that their son or daughter was DEAD.
And, of course, they should have NEVER gotten into a car with someone boasting that he was the “drunkest one there!”
The sirens and helicopters woke us up because there were so many that responded - every dog in the neighborhood was barking, howling, etc., for hours it seemed. We didn’t know what was going on (4 AM in the morning) — we were soon to find out when my 19-year old received a text from one of his friends a few hours later.
One survivor, who reeked of alcohol according to the cops, managed to crawl out of the car before it exploded into flames. Memorial is unbelievable, piled with flowers, photos and candles. I pass it every day on my way home from work. Sad Sad SAD.
As the mother of a 19 and 22 year old I can’t imagine the grief and pain these families are experiencing.
Hope this school is sued and pays a high price for what they’ve done to this responsible teenager.
And CBS, you need to learn to count. You say the following; In the middle of her senior year, Erin was demoted from captain of the volleyball team and told she would be suspended from playing for five games. Really? I got to figure, 7-8 weeks into a 37 week school year. (The Massachusetts D.O.E. requires that school calendars show a scheduled 185 day school year.) Then again 'journalists' are probably worse than bureaucrats at dividing and figuring ...
We are still friends. He doesn't drink any more and he's thanked me more than once for doing what I did.
Zero Tolerance = Zero Intelligence
Where’s the phone number of the school administrator, their email address so we can all let them know what a bunch of nitwits they are?
