Yet Another Cool Website for YOU!!

I was surfing the net this afternoon, looking for something interesting, when I discovered a weblog that's perfect for everyone who is furious at the ridiculous, over-sensitive methods that U.S. schools and our American government use to "protect" our nation's children: Zero Intellegence! Founder, contributor, and site owner Jim Peacock grew weary of the zero tolerance policies that have plaqued are schools since the 1990s. He says that the policies have a "total lack of compassion, fairness, and attention to the details of a particular violation."

Jim's blog, which has been around the Net since January of 2004, features real stories from news websites that involve such mind-boggling incidents such as a fourth-grade student in Connecticut being suspended for 10 days and facing explusion because his mother had packed a Boy Scout utensil kit with his lunch or a teacher in Florida being reassigned with charges filed against her for showing students a knife and then plunging it into a stack of papers on a student's desk (would a student get off so easily?).

The law can really be a pain sometimes.
