As far as I am concern it was false arrest, I hope parents sue school for every cent they have.

Your point? So the kid has ADD and his parents cowardly hide behind a convenient label that they feel exonerates them ffom responsibility. When I was a kid ADD meant Apparantly Devoid of Discipline......seems to me the kid got a good lesson in reality.

Zero tolerance policies don't work. There was a really great kid that had a knife in the bed of his pickup that he had used for hunting over the weekend. It was reported, and he was expelled for 1 year due to the zero tolerance weapons policy at my high school. I'm sure things have only become worse since I left.
I'm not going to rule out public schools for my kids, but I won't rule out private school either. However, if I'm going to send my child to private school, shouldn't I get at least some credit for the taxes I've paid in?

All public schools should be privatized, but regulated. What makes our country great is competition (capitalism). When the government communizes programs like Public education, Healthcare, Social Security, etc. You end up with a bloated, wasted, worthless social program. Instead of teacher's unions, if you had private schools all competing for students, and school taxes were eliminated, then the total cost of education would dramatically go down and teacher's would wave their power by simply working for a different school rather than striking the school they're in.

The teachers' unions would never go for that of course, because that would mean the teachers would have to compete, and actually do a competent job to retain their positions. There are some good teachers in the system still, but the fscktards outnumber them greatly.

There were probably two other people in the jail.
The deputy and maybe the town drunk

No, no credit. Thats like asking poor people back for the money you gave them for their welfare checks. If you live in the city...city taxes go towards the city school, for the welfare of the city basically.
