    "Despite committing a string of arrestable offenses on campus before the Florida school shooting, Nikolas Cruz was able to escape the attention of law enforcement, pass a background check and purchase the weapon he used to slaughter three staff members and 14 fellow students because of Obama administration efforts to make school discipline more lenient."


    "Broward school Superintendent Robert W. Runcie – a Chicagoan and Harvard graduate with close ties to President Obama and his Education Department – signed an agreement with the county sheriff and other local jurisdictions to trade cops for counseling. Students charged with various misdemeanors, including assault, would now be disciplined through participation in “healing circles,” obstacle courses and other “self-esteem building” exercises."

    "Asserting that minority students, in particular, were treated unfairly by traditional approaches to school discipline, Runcie’s goal was to slash arrests and ensure that students, no matter how delinquent, graduated without criminal records."

    This push to increase graduates is a blight across the country.

    Instead of pressuring, motivating or incenting at risk students to meet standards, the education administration (which has to be the dumbest group ever categorized) has lowered standards and expectation to make it virtually impossible to fail.

    In case you have not figured it out, keeping these losers and conduct cases in schools often DESTROYS the learning environment for all.

    And kicking them out of school is the equivalent of handling a "go to jail" card. Any ideas?
