Two absurdities for the morning. Charles passed along a girl suspended for drawing stick figures of her teachers with arrows through their heads, aaaand, the headline reads "Man Held in Brutal Beating of Mother", what leaped out at me was:
"Some areas of the apartment appeared to have been cleaned, maybe to
destroy evidence," Dixon said.
See: If I clean up, and someone gets beaten near my house, I'm a suspect. This is why I don't clean up.

Regarding the first absurdity, can it be much longer before students can be suspended for gritting their teeth? I still maintain that the drop in overall violence and rise in incidents of extreme violence stems from all forms of physical aggression, including the mildest forms, being severly punished.

It just hit me: Can she just say she was drawing Steve Martin images?
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
