Before the morning was even over, the Tennessee eighth grader was under arrest. She was interrogated, strip-searched and spent the night in a jail cell, her mother says. Earlier in the day, her friends had teased the teen about her tanned complexion and called her “Mexican,” even though she’s not. When a friend asked what she was planning for Thursday, she wrote: “on Thursday we kill all the Mexico’s.”
What kind of state ramps up this kind of rhetoric, even fetishizes it to the point of installing a president and
confessionalcongressional members who use it, then criminalizes children for repeating what they say, after criminalizing diversity posters in classrooms?Well, sucks to be her. Maybe don’t make jokes about racially motivated school shootings on your schools online portal is the first lesson she needs to learn.
A fascist state.
States (and individual school districts) control the schools. The US isn’t some European country where everything is under parliamentary control. There’s actual separation of powers.
Uh huh…
Yes, the unchecked power of all parliamentary systems, the clear inferior to modern American reality.
I didn’t say anything about reality. I was just pointing out how it’s not one government that controls nearly everything.
