Education experts decried a new memo from the Departments of Justice and Education that instructs public schools throughout the country to cease punishing disruptive students if they fall into certain racial categories, such as black or Hispanic.
The letter, released on Wednesday, states that it is a violation of federal law for schools to punish certain races more than others, even if those punishments stem from completely neutral rules. For example, equal numbers of black students and white students should be punished for tardiness, even if black students are more often tardy than white students.

Here is the relevant section of the letter:
“Schools also violate Federal law when they evenhandedly implement facially neutral policies and practices that, although not adopted with the intent to discriminate, nonetheless have an unjustified effect of discriminating against students on the basis of race. Examples of policies that can raise disparate impact concerns include policies that impose mandatory suspension, expulsion, or citation (e.g., ticketing or other fines or summonses) upon any student who commits a specified offense — such as being tardy to class, being in possession of a cellular phone, being found insubordinate, acting out, or not wearing the proper school uniform.” The Daily Caller asked several education experts to weigh in the letter’s recommendations; all three raised serious concerns about the ramifications of changing school disciplinary procedures to engineer equal outcomes across the races.
Joy Pullmann, managing editor of School Reform News, told TheDC that any notion of equal racial discipline is obviously flawed.

OK, so black and Hispanic students, due to their race, cannot get to class on time, are more likely to mess with their cell phone than pay attention, are more likely to be insubordinate and act out, and can't seem to dress appropriately.
huh?
***to cease punishing disruptive students***
Long gone are the days when we were told to “Bend over and grab your ankles.”
I know you probably meant this in jest, but after I thought about it I wouldn't be surprised if this is the real intent. Exempting blacks and hispanics from discipline in school is the "foot in the door" to an expanded policy of quotas for the judiciary. You can't start a serious riot without some serious rioters.
The black truants can hold a lottery for who gets punished.
Or they could play Rochambeau.
Some animals are more equal than others.
I’ve mentioned elsewhere here on Free Republic that more and more our own Federal Government is trying to “push” us into a situation where CW II or martial law occurs.
I see this as just another “push” only this one is aimed directly at our children. Consider what will occur when the father/mother has been laid off, refused assistance because they are too ‘white’. Can’t find a job, the food is running low and the landlord has eviction papers nailed to the front door and then... Their son/daughter is ‘knockout gamed’ into the hospital and might have brain damage.
All of the buttons have been pushed... It’s time for the parent to ‘lose it’ and go hunting...
Just what the DOJ and the Feds want, either someone to make into an ‘example’ or for race riots to break out in response.
Just think about it people, just think about it.
How?
Minority students in class are being
encouraged to talk back to their teachers
and to point to teachers’ inherent racism
as a reason for their incurring discipline.
The left (always racist) has continued
to push the case for outright race and
class warfare in order to bring down the
system and put themselves in the position
of absolute control in society.
“Each class should create a roster of white kids, and beat the living crap out of one of them every day. When the crackers have received their just punishment expel them, but only after they’ve run a gauntlet of happy, gentle, studious black kids. Schools that don’t have enough evil white kids can use Jews and orientals, or trouble making kids from India. `Beat them all until the black kids jump for joy.”
That bottom-lines the whole thing. They all hate MLK.
