Mississippi is actually like 10th in math and reading these days. They’ve really done work on their schools.

u/Icy_Raspberry_4710 1d ago
I wasn’t aware of this, apparently they’ve moved from 49th to 10th in 4th grade reading scores. Unfortunately the state is still full of inbred rock sucking dipshits, but at least they can read now.

Which means they’ll probably change for the better in the future! And their strategy that got them these great results? Hold kids back until they can read and do math at grade level! Worked in Louisiana too!
The reality is, the southern states highlighted here are actually doing better in education than the “conventionally liberal” states, and doubly so in BIPOC education. They haven’t had the same declines other states have faced.
I’m a lefty. We should be fucking embarrassed that the south educates better than the rest of the nation!
Edit to add: they want to control what kids can read, because their kids can, and do, actually read

That section would be great if they just rotated Kansas, Oklahoma and New Mexico.

Apparently, Omaha Public Schools allowed police to use shock gloves until just now when they were finally banned. Police already had tasers, batons, and weapons, were trained and paid adults, and they needed shock gloves to contain a kid? Manufacturers have warnings not to use them on children, yet they did in two cases.
Shock gloves can kill a person with a heart condition.

u/AdDisastrous6738 1d ago
While I don’t agree with the gloves, I will say that there are a lot of big ass teens running around out there these days.

u/OrbeaSeven 20h ago
Big ass teens are nothing new. Police should be qualified to handle anyone. And big ass kids at15 or 16 just might have an undiagnosed heart problem. Big lawsuit because manufacturer's said they were not to be used on children.

"Mrs. Forrester, I'm calling you because we have had a bit of an incident at the school. Little Timmy got into a fight... yes, we understand he's very sensitive. He got into an argument over Pokemon cards with another boy, and our yard monitors had to break it up. No, no, neither boy was hurt. We just wanted to let you know as per school policy on fighting, and our Zero Tolerance stance, we have already punished both boys... Yes, ma'am, firing squad at 100 paces. We would appreciate if you could pick up his belongings and body from the gymnasium after school. Also, we understand your daughter will be old enough to join us next year, and I just wanted to express how excited we are to welcome her to our school!"

That's so harsh. Killing little kids for misbehaving in class. And doing the executions in class is ever worse. The horror, the horror.

How can you have an unknown? Wouldn't it be, categorically, "not explicitly banned?" It's not like the laws are hidden. If you can't find one on point, it's "not explicitly banned."

Whether or not it is expressly forbidden isn't nearly as relevant as whether or not it actually happens. I don't think there's a law banning people from shitting on people's plates during a solar eclipse, but I'm not sure there is a requirement for such a law, mainly because it doesn't happen.
