    It is really sad how many people would trust teachers in a classroom with guns but not books.

        Frankly, I’m at the point where I’m starting to question if even that part:whole relationship is really applicable.

        Don’t get me wrong: I understand why it’s a really bad thing to start dehumanizing your enemy, but WTF are you supposed to do when they jettison everything but venal hatred and sociopathy and thus dehumanize themselves?

        They are also trying to get rid of teachers. Eventually charter schools will just have a person in a classroom pressing play for a video and handing out papers. Grading and testing will be done through computers. A psych report will be made for each student to determine how to brainwash them further.

          The video will be produced by Sinclair Media and even math will include a polemic about how awful socialism is and how great Trump is.

      Also, schools can’t afford books. Giving every (or even a few) teachers guns would cost millions per school district. We have money for more guns but not computers and books
