ZERO FREEDOM

While reading about the ongoing saga of the lunacy at the Sayreville school
over children playing cops and robbers, I had a thought. Instead of
zero-tolerant, overreacting educators spending millions of taxpayer dollars
to fund mind control programs like DARE, we could actually do something to
help kids think for themselves. I suggest that schools spend a fraction of
that cost to purchase a book, now in pocket size, called "The Declaration of
Independence and the Constitution of the United States of America."

After passing through metal detectors, walking past drug-sniffing dogs and
campus cops, students will be able to read about our freedoms, which are
being taken away. I doubt this will happen, though. It would be too much of
a threat to the politically correct control freaks who run public education.
