Your entire comment is a red herring if it's meant to address what I wrote. Nowhere have you (or the poster I was replying to) given a moral, ethical, or legal basis for why teachers' unions should be worried about anything other than teachers.
And people do have recourse against teachers and the systems in which they work. First is the ballot box to replace school boards. Second is the court system.
Female teachers? My other hypothesis (the first was posted up above, somewhere) is that female teachers are woefully underprepared to deal with male children in a learning environment.
Others have already addressed the questions you ask, but let me throw out a hypothesis I have: lack of fathers in the home. The 'good cop/bad cop' approach doesn't work if there's only one at home. And then there are the inconsistent and sometimes contradictory rules when bouncing between two homes. Competition by two people trying to be favored by the child results in a lack of discipline.
Those black on yellow signs with numbers are recommended speeds for the curve, not limits per se. IIRC, the standards were developed in the 50's or thereabouts, which is why modern cars can almost always do double that speed. FWIW, the speeds suggested are just about right for tractor trailers (articulated lorry?) in my experience.
And that Constitution you think is so awesome was set up because the founders didn't really give a shit about the views of the rest of the world, and were also leery of the tyranny of the majority.
Why not just shoot all the kids before they get the idea of coming into school with a gun to kill. it'll solve the problem. or just get law enforcement to kill everyone that illegally or legally has a gun as being proactive instead of reactive
Having taught in a high school for a (very) short time, I must say that I'm intrigued by your ideas and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
What's wrong with an organization set up, funded, and intended for the benefit of teachers being for the benefit of teachers? Why should students be first? Let their parents form an organization to advocate for them. Oh, wait, most schools have a PTA or PTSA.
Seconded, but with a twist. If you take the CPU out of a computer, what are you left with? Yes, my parents had tablets. It's like a computer, but better. At least for old people who can't use a computer but want to use some computer-like applications.
This. The answer in my case was "Dad, here's your iPad". Not only are there no support issues beyond "should I install this iOS update", he uses it far more than any PC he's ever had.

Dear USA, You wrote these new rules, now we (and everybody else who used to be your friends and allies) will play by them. Please stop complaining, you asked for it.

Oh good, a nice little French poodle to go along with the British bulldog we've been toying with for years.

I must ask: why curly braces instead of parentheses?

Haven't you noticed that some of the spaces in the second and third copy are replaced by U+2002 EN SPACE or U+205F MEDIUM MATHEMATICAL SPACE?
Try making a diff and decoding the changes in trinary, you will find a secret note only for you.
Mine just said "Be sure to drink your ovaltine."
What the fuck is a Maclaren?
Take a look at the subject line for your comment and the one you were replying to.
Is that the one that Gerard Depardieu is irate about? (Or is it the entirety of the French tax situation?)

He's often "technically correct".
You are aware that that is the best kind of correct, right?
No-one is worthy to carry a gun is the answer
At least you're honest about it.

Are powder or primers prohibited in the UK?
Shut up and take your soma.
Are you trolling or just woefully uninformed?

Your "wild west" rot is a creation of hollywood, not of mine, or reality.
I am talking about normal people walking around with their tools, using them correctly, and safely. What's so wrong with that?
He's scared of big, black, roughly tube shaped objects?
Look at the butthurt Republican mad that someone called out the GOP for the flaming hypocrites that they are.
Saying that you stand for something and actually standing for it are two ENTIRELY different things.
It's a damn shame that the Republicans don't actually measure up to their rhetoric.
I think this sums up the situation nicely.
Hmmmm, my spider-sense is warning me some down mods may be coming since this isn't a criticism of Republicans.
I like that cartoon, but it needed a setup panel where each side got to set their own hurdle height.
If there were no New York City, we would to import half of our snottiness from Europe.
I have faith in the ability of LA to pick up the slack.

No, no, he write it with the Commodores. Lionel Richie has mad sys admin skills.

Alex, I'll take 'Regulatory Capture for $800'.

Shouldn't you be out smoking meth and racing tractors?
You forgot to mention intimate relations with close family members.
This is /. Just like "it's ok if Google does it", the thinking is "it's okay if EUians do it".
