WHEN DID SCHOOLS BECOME LIKE PRISONS?
When did our schools become prison camps?
With each passing day, there are more school lock downs with commando-style
raids on our children. Police do sweeps of the halls with their guns drawn
and attack dogs at their side. How much longer will it be before one of our
children is hurt, or worse killed, by the actions of our law enforcement
agencies?
Our kids are forced into mandatory drug tests but are not tested for
alcohol. Why is this?
Our children are students not prisoners! Why have the states gone to such
great lengths to treat our children as prisoners and our schools as prisons?
Could it be that the U.S. has the highest incarceration rate in the world,
and they are preparing our kids for their future?
