If he made it to Massachusetts would he be willing to settle for a tonic?
Meanwhile, in Texas, school authorities decide violating the law is just fine as long as they can abuse another black kid:
It isn’t the first time they’ve tried to beat black kids into submission to their notions of what’s acceptable, either.
I considered putting this in the Stupid MFers thread, but continuing to push this even after previous legal actions and enactment of a law specifically designed to stop this sort of crap tip them into evil MFer territory for sure.
As long as the kid’s hair is clean and not a distraction, who cares how it looks? Some people, as usual, have too much free time.
Ah, but “distraction” leaves so much room for interpretation. That’s the word these people use to excuse all sorts of controlling behavior.

Irony much?
“I get knocked down, but I get up again! You’re never gonna keep me down!”
I think this quote from the superintendent speaks volumes.
“People want to call us racist, but we’re following the rules, the law of the land,” he said.
Note even if what you are doing is technically legal (its not) that doesn’t mean it isn’t racist.
“We’re just following orders.” Too much?
“We’re not racist - the rules are.”
“We hate being called racist. Now, being racist…that we have no problem with.”
A serial killer died in prison today . Good. I hope he had a moment of realization about what a monster he’d been before the end.
Watched ‘Scout’s Honor’ on Netflix.
Holy Shitsnacks!!!
Back in the day, BSofA didn’t require you to even show any identification to be a scout leader ‘volunteer’. The ‘volunteer’ could be using a fake name or be a wanted felon…or be on BSofAs own ‘perversion’ list.
They had ‘scout leaders’ who formed a troop solely to recruit victims to abuse. They went to houses where there were single mothers to convince them to let their boys join Boy Scouts. I cannot describe the rest. Evil MFers.
Ooops, wrong thread.
Jeffery Darryl Hogg, 59, of Whitehouse, was arrested on Wednesday on a charge of assault cause bodily injury. An arrest affidavit for Hogg said that the principal caused bodily injury to a female student by striking her three times with a wooden paddle on Aug. 14. According to the document, the paddling was forceful enough to cause bruising which was visible at least 48 hours after the incident.
The student and her mother filed a complaint with the Rusk County Sheriff’s office the day after the incident in Hogg’s office. The document said the student decided to receive corporal punishment after getting in trouble at the school, and her mother consented as well. The paddling occurred in Hogg’s office, and the affidavit said he paddled the student three times.
According to the affidavit, the student said in her report that the “second lick was harder than the first and she had never hurt like that before.” She did not want to continue with the paddling, the document said, but after Hogg told her “it would be a shame to have got to ISS when she only had one lick left,” and her mother encouraged her to finish, she agreed to the final strike.
The affidavit said the girl took pictures of the bruising as it developed throughout the day. She then had them examined by a nurse, who stated that the bruises were substantial and swollen. A Forensic Assessment Center Network doctor viewed the photos taken by the student and nurse up to 48 hours after the incident, and stated that the injuries were consistent with child abuse.
On Aug. 15, Overton ISD posted a comment on Facebook in response to “the number of comments and ongoing social media posts regarding student discipline.” This post corroborates the statements made in the affidavit, saying the student and parent both consented to the punishment, but that the student considered quitting the punishment midway through.
“There is never an intent to harm students; any administered consequence is in an effort to help students learn, grow and make positive choices. OISD is dedicated to serving and nurturing our students toward academic, social and emotional growth,” the district said in the post.
Australia has suspended a human rights law in order to imprison children who have been arrested for a crime in police watch houses. Children can mean “under 10 years old.” It all sounds pretty horrific to me, not to mention the reason they’re doing this is because their capacity in other places for children is nonexistent.

For those like me who don’t know what a “police watch house” is (and bear in mind that reportedly 90% of these kids are awaiting trial, so they have only been arrested, not convicted):
Attached to police stations and courts, a watch house contains small, concrete cells with no windows and is normally used only as a “last resort” for adults awaiting court appearances or required to be locked up by police overnight.
“[A watch house] often has other children in it. There’ll be a toilet that is visible to pretty much anyone,” he said.
“Children do not have access to fresh air or sunlight. And there’s been reported cases of a child who was held for 32 days in a watch house whose hair was falling out. After two to three days in a watch house, a child’s mental health will start to deteriorate. At the point of eight, nine or 10 days in the watch house, I have heard numerous reports of children breaking down at that time.”
A video posted on social media shows the unidentified man talking to officers who came to his door in answer to his complaint of a man having manipulated his daughter into sending images. The man says he wanted someone to talk to her to get her “to realize what this was” and then suggests “reality is” there isn’t much he can do.
One officer is heard in the video saying his daughter “could probably get charged with child porn” if she produced the images. Told the girl is only 11, the officer replies “Doesn’t matter. She’s still making porn.” After the man says she is being manipulated by an adult on the internet, the same officer asks whether the girl is taking pictures, and the man then breaks off the conversation and the officers depart, according to the video.
“Someone stole my car! I left it running for just a minute as I grabbed something from my house and somebody jumped in and drove off!”
“Hmm… So you’re confessing to aiding and abetting grand theft auto? We could put you away for a long time.”
I’m not sure if the MFer in that case is the police or the father. It sounds to me like the father called the police in an attempt to “scare her straight”, because he didn’t know how else to steer her away from her behavior. And yeah, telling the girl that what she’s doing is technically child porn and hence technically illegal is about what one should expect from cops trying to “scare someone straight”.
I thought the father was expecting that the police would start looking for the guy who is grooming her
