Our children's schools filled with cops, metal detectors, counselors, & do you know why?
We have security and counselors in schools because we have desperate kids with easy access to weapons and drugs. We have desperate kids with easy access to weapons and drugs because we have conservatives entrenched in gun rights, constantly doing budget cuts to the schools and to social programs, defending overt and covert racism, making contraception and abortion difficult, and dumbing the public down by pushing religion over science. 2

so allowing abortion would get rid of unwanted black kids? Oh right. that was why planned parenthood was founded. A silent genocide of Blacks. - Dumbing down like removing choice from schools so that you have to stay in your feeder pattern even if the school you're assigned to is compleete garbage? oh and lets not forget forcing people to not drop out so that a Highschool diploma is now virtually worthless. - this isn't a single facet problem. but your statement made it seem like every decision the right made was wrong. both sides have some amount of credit, and some amount of detriment, My argument and what I'm seeing of the OP's argument is that we have a culture problem. not a Race, or drug, or education problem. the root cause is that an understanding of Outgroup Homogeneity bias has a tendency to cause Outgroup Homogeneity bias. the only way to get rid of an "US" and "THEM" mentality is by forcing THEM to be like US. which is what schools aim to do. but it instead causes more problems than it solves because the "THEM" have problems with authority. 1

I didnt say republicans themselves are doing violence, but their policies will lead to more violence. They want to increase the amount of guns in circulation. They want to deregulate all guns. Statistically that will increase the amount of gun deaths per year whether it be from mass shootings or accidents and suicides. |
