The School system here in Los Angeles has become worse not better.
People turn the other way as more and more inner city schools are shut down. The rich get the education. The poor fight to pay the rent, feed the kids.
New Orleans showed a side of the US that many pass pay and don't look at. Or rather ignore. The idea being if I don't see it I don't have to deal with it.
What comes around goes around.
We breed the the hungry and the uneducated. Sooner or later the house of cards will fall in. And what we will end up seeing before us will be Horrifying.
We have a gigantic educational assembly line that coercively processes students and treats them with Ritalin or therapy if they can't sit still in the cage. The American [sic] high school as social scene clearly spawns internecine furies in sexually stunted young men who are emotionally divorced from their parents but too passive to run away, so that they turn their inchoate family hatreds on their peers. Like the brainy rich-kid criminals Leopold and Loeb (see the 1959 film Compulsion), the Columbine killers were looking for meaning and chose the immortality of infamy, the cold ninth circle of the damned.
