Perhaps you heard about the police drug raid at Goose Creek High School in South Carolina? This is the on where officers came in with guns drawn, dumped the contents of book bags on the ground, handcuffed students for no particular reason, and, in the end, found absolutely nothing. I find it all completely offensive. Having a school resource officer, essentially a cop who sucks too much to acutually deal with crime, is one thing, even metal dectectors are, shamefully, acceptable to me, but these random raids, which the school system said they have two or three times a year, are ridiculous. Since when is a school's job law enforcement? If there is actual evidence of a high school drug ring, then the police should take care of it like they would if the offenders were adults. Get the suspects, ask some questions (with, mind you, lawyers present if the student wants one), and try to figure out the truth. Ruining an entire day of school, and scaring students half to death, is a waste of taxpayer's money. The kids could actually have been learning, what some historians says was the original purpose of public school, and the cops could have been going after real criminals. You know the type, right? Rapists, murderers, rabble-rousers like Al Sharpton (didja hear about the riot he started outside a Jewish owned business a few years ago which resulted in the business burning down, and a few peoiple dying? Yeah, great civil rights leader there. Try googling Freddie's, Al, and Sharpton to get the scoop on that bastard). At any rate, I'm glad my public high school, North Springs High School, was, and still remains, an excellent place to learn for those who choose to.
