Public School Education System Thread

Funny thing is that of the various schools I've gone to in different areas of the country, there is about as large a student body that thinks of this as the bull it is as endorses it. We'll see more backlash the longer this goes on- they mostly keep silent now, because saying the wrong thing on anything can get you ostracized, especially politics when many kids equate their views to their humanity, but as I begin to see more awareness of this and the fact that they aren't a superminority in most places, I foresee more outspokenness in the future.

This is nothing new; DSL has posted the stats correlating before, but I can offer personal testament to the research. Also, it might still be important to remember that stuff as blatant as this is not the norm- the norm is pretty far left, but not full-out radical everywhere I've seen.

How does Killeen keep getting in the news?

In the early days of Myspace I somehow made friends with a girl from Killeen through an electronic music/rave group.

I had to work a game in San Antonio the year the Saints were playing there because of Katrina, so I drove the couple hours to go visit. She lived with her parents and her 4 year old. We hung out all night and then I did the deed at the house with all the family there. Weird night

Here's an example of the results of Public Education and why some kind of Consumer/Finance Math needs to be taught to everyone rather than the current high school math track

I willing to consider they had it coming.

It's a solid possibility.

In a history text only the most specialized students of 21st century central Texas educational history will read,

"The actions taken by substitute teachers, such as taping their fucking mouths shut, while at the time seeming drastic, now appear to be prudent and necessary."

When I retire, I am going to apply to sub teach History. My state is hurting for Sub teachers and pay shit. I'm going to try it just for fun.

I will pack the Duct Tape!

If I get called on it, I'll pull NCO games and say it was all part of lesson on Free Speech or some shit.

Props for spelling duct tape correctly. :fist bump:

Funny thing about that. As I understand it, the name has had several evolutions. The tape was first invented for the military, used for amphibious landings in WWII. The GIs named it Duck Tape. Later it became used for Duct work and was named Duct Tape.
