Zero-tolerance

Quoth the Tennessean:The good news: Zero tolerance offenses in Metro schools experienced 51% decrease over the past three years. The bad news: For the same three-year period, police arrests in Metro schools have nearly tripled.

Let's see... three times the arrests... for a 50% reduction...

Well that's that... Math proves the supporters of Zero-Tolerance are morons. Obviously I could write at length about this... but why? The hate's just not in me today... and well... since the matter of my sons' education has long been settled... and the possibility of government schooling has long been ruled out... well... I just have a hard time spewin' venom over it.

How many different times can you really say "Burn 'em down and Hang them what built 'em"?
