Let me state emphatically that I am not a grammar Nazi and I couldn't tell you what a gerund is or diagram a statement. At the same time, the caliber of these posts is nothing short of embarrassing: "Gauardian Angle/We want to NO/Them slow learners." Is this a joke? People, read and edit before you post. Use spellcheck, punctuate and capitalize properly. You will not be taken seriously if your writing is so poor one can hear the accent and twang all the way in cyberspace.
With regards to the topic I share in the general sentiments of anger and outrage. This must have been very traumatic for both the poor child and the mother. Such an incident is further evidence that the busing experiment has failed and we need to return to community schools. Tired canards against community schools that allege racism and segregation hold no water anymore. We cannot continue to suffer under this failed system which, obviously as seen here, produced a generation of quasi-illiterate proletarians.
This is just embarrassing.
