Just saw this, i cant believe it. This just after hearing how the boy with the lego gun was hung out to dry.

This girl wrote on her school desk, and as a result was arrested. Unless there is something else to the story, there are just no words to describe this.

NYC girl, 12, arrested, taken to police station for doodling on school desk
Staff report • February 5, 2010

NEW YORK — A New York City junior high student has been arrested for doodling on her desk with a marker.


Twelve-year-old Alexa Gonzalez scribbled "Lex was here 2/1/10'' on her desk Monday at Junior High School 190 in Queens. She also wrote "I love my friends Abby and Faith.'' The girl says the doodles could have been erased.
Moraima Camacho says her daughter was released several hours after she was taken in handcuffs to a police station.
Education department spokesman David Cantor said the incident shouldn't have happened, and that common sense should prevail.
Last month, the New York Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit alleging more than 20 instances of wrongful arrests and assaults by school safety officers.
Gonzalez has been assigned eight hours of community service, a book report and an essay on what she's learned from the experience.

You know what, if the teacher made her stay after and clean all the desks in the room I'd say good for her, but to have her arrested for something so insignificant?!?! Every day I hear more and more stories, the kinds that I'm hoping are a joke or just a rumor, but I've come to the realization that this is what our country has come to. We are breeding a generation of robots with all this overreacting and P.C. bullshit. Now there are schools that don't allow any games to be played in which there is a winning team and a losing team, so childrens feelings don't get hurt. Yea, that's really gonna prepare them for the future. WAKE THE F&%K UP AMERICA. I suppose the future Visa won't send out credit card bills either "for fear of hurting their feelings" and the banks of 2020 won't repossess homes either.

Some of these overpaid teachers and administrators are really stupid! I scratch my head as I watch this on the news where she was escorted across the street in handcuffs. What were they thinking? Idiots. But, they are most likely protected with tenure...

When these things happen it unfortunately furthers the seperation of law enforcement from the citizens. This girl will probably never trust LE again and probably most of her family and classmates won't. This is pervasive in many countries with militarized LE ... and about 75% of the way here.

The future holds an US against THEM lifestyle with them being the goverment and their enforcers against the surfs. The rich global elites will live in their compounds behind walls and be relatively immune. The rest of us will live in constant fear of the abuse of power.
