HARTFORD, Conn.~Dec 1, 2005 ~Bad words are costing Hartford Public and Bulkeley high schoolers $103 each.
Police officers assigned to the schools have fined about two dozen students for cursing in a new program to curtail unruly behavior. The joint effort by school and police officials targets students who swear while defying teachers and administrators.
"We're sending a message to the parents and to the teachers," said Sandy Cruz-Serrano, senior adviser to Superintendent of Schools Robert Henry. "We are trying to bring back order to the schools."
Parents are required to pay the fines if the students cannot.
"Our heads are spinning with that," said Sam Saylor, president of the district Parent Teacher Organization. "The kids are really indecent with their swearing and they're swearing at teachers. This is their way of curtailing it making the parents pay."
Keila Ayala, 17, a Hartford Public sophomore, said she was ticketed for shouting an expletive in an officer's face while handcuffed for taking a swing at him.
"It'll stop me from swearing," she said. "Well, it won't stop me from swearing, but I won't cuss at the teachers."
George Sugai, who teaches school discipline at UConn's Neag School of Education, is skeptical of the effort. "Research says that punishing kids doesn't teach them the right way to act," he said.
But Hartford Police Officer Roger Pearl said the program is working.
"Before, the kids were swearing all the time. It went from many incidents to almost nothing," he said. "It's quiet in the halls."

FUCK THAT SHIT WITH A RAGING WHALE BONER.


The article makes it sound like cursing is more serious than taking a swing at an officer. WTF?

"in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption"

"People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."

All that's left is the right to remain silent.

i guess rights and justice are separate.
rights are doing whatever you want despite the circumstances,
justice is getting away with it.

Some kid is going to win a bunch of cash when him and his friends all cuss a few times and then start a class action law suit.

"Rights" sounds vaguely familiar...I think we might have had some years and years ago.

pop quiz. Name one connection between the freedom of information act and Rage Against the Machine.

First correct answer wins a link to furry scat porn.

I thought this was bullshit - can't believe it checks out.

I see a lot in America that scares me.
