Government schools: Did you expect anything else?
Yahoo News reports on the New York Post story about an embarrassing misspelled traffic signal:
The word…
“…school” is now gone from the street outside a New York City school building.
Utility workers used heavy machinery to grind up the wrongly placed “H” and “C” in the “SHCOOL X-NG” sign on Tuesday.
The correction was made a day after the New York Post reported the spelling error.”
Government workers are generally products of government schools. Starting to see the trend here?
Law Enforcer Joining Wave of Defectors
The Raw Story reports this week on a story told by one active-duty member of law enforcement, but it affects many more:
“I did not get in law enforcement to destroy a person’s future because that person had marijuana or a pill in their pocket,” the officer explained. “Why would you want to destroy that person’s future and cause them great harm because of that? It’s not worth it.”
Statistics from the FBI reveal that for every passing 19 seconds of 2010, a person was caged by a member of law enforcement for the crime of possessing a prohibited drug. In 2009, 1.6 million people were arrested in the U.S. for drugs.

Oakland Arrestees Tortured
The Daily Kos reported on the torture being endured by Occupy Oakland protesters who were caged during the mass-arrests this week.
Some of the jailed report on their experiences:
“Just got out of Santa Rita Jail last night the prisoners from the Oakland Commune were being denied medications (some had seizures) while the guards said they didnt care if they died. Some people were brutally beaten. The put tear gas in the vents of my cell twice. They were keeping people without restrooms forcing them to [defecate] themselves or puke all over and stay in the same area….”
In a scene reminiscent of a third-world dictatorship, “Women arrestees were forced to give urine samples in front of male officers, ostensibly for pregnancy testing.” This is also done to further humiliate the people in cages.
