Stupid court rulings

[The PIT]

Sometimes I wonder where Judges and police forces get there grey matter from.

I read this on teletext.

A driver has been banned from all pubs and clubs in the United kingdom after being convicted for the fourth time for drinking and driving.

Ugh how are they going to enforce it.

Another one was a restraining order the police sort and got on a dangerous rapist just released from Jail banning him from having any contact/being near any women.

If he's that dangerous why is he out and whos going to lock him up when he walks down the road or catches a bus and sits close to a women.

If you think that is stupid check this out.

Zero tolerance policies -- many mandated by state law after the
tragic school shootings in Columbine, Colorado -- require government-
run schools to expel or suspend students for any violation of weapons
or drugs regulations.

Such policies have led to bizarre results, including:

* A 6-year-old in Colorado was suspended for violating the
school's anti-drug policy after a teacher saw him share a lemon drop
candy with a friend. The school also called an ambulance for the lemon-
drop-eating friend.

* In New Jersey, a 9-year-old was suspended -- and forced to
undergo psychiatric counseling -- for threatening to shoot a classmate
with a rubber band.

* A 10-year-old in Colorado was expelled because her mother put
a small knife in her lunchbox to cut an apple. When the girl realized
the knife could violate the school's anti-weapons policy, she turned it
over to a teacher. The school then expelled the girl.

* Three grammar school students in Colorado were suspended for
possessing a weapon -- a water pistol.

* A 13-year-old in Arizona, inspired by the movie October Sky,
built a rocket -- fueled by three match heads -- out of a Pringles
potato chip canister. When he brought the potato chip canister to
school he was suspended for a year for having a "weapon." The school
also reported him to the police.

* In Michigan, a third-grader was suspended for showing his
classmates a gun-shaped medallion, slightly larger than a charm for a
necklace. He had found the piece of jewelry in a snowbank. "State law
requires us to take action even though it was a toy," said a school
administrator.

* A school in New Jersey suspended two kindergarten students
for playing "cops and robbers" on the playground. They had pointed
their fingers at each other like guns and shouted, "Bang bang!"

* In Maryland, a school suspended a 9-year-old after he drew a
picture of a gun on a piece of paper.

* In Virginia, eight students were suspended for one week after
they were caught sniffing Kool-Aid. They were charged with "possession
of contraband" because they were "using Kool-Aid in a way that imitated
the use of illegal drugs," school officials said

One of the main reasons American society SUCKS is that our teachers and principals actually are some of the stupidest, most senseless morons on the planet. This reminds me of the 6 year old who was sent to JAIL for kissing a classmate. Supposedly, he was "sexually assaulting" the girl. These teachers are the ones who should be punished for their abject stupidity and kneejerk overreation to such absolutely innocuous things. They ruin and twist these poor kid's lives for no reason whatsoever. And, in case you think I am lax on such things, I firmly believe that 6 year old murderer who brought his crack dealing uncle's gun to school and blew away a 6yo girl should be executed, along with the uncle and the no-account thug parents. There is no room in this world for such irresponsible people, and the message should be absolutely clear.

Teaching needs to be a better paid profession. Then we need to go through these people with a fine toothed comb and get rid of the idiots. If anyone wants to know the truth, it is stupid teachers that result in poor performance from their students.

Those are classics Joel.
So to enforce law and make rules you need -1 brain.
