Yes. I hear from teachers that there's pressure not to discipline black and Hispanic students.

You all must be really bored.

robots will replace teachers


AI can be a racist too.

That is what's happening now in elementary schools.
i started this topic , hate libs but what on earth could elementary school kids do to warrant suspensions? I think this zero tolerance nonsense. When I was I middle school I dressed up as an Arab terrorist on Halloween . I had a dummy grenade, a T-shirt I write death to America on, and wore a keffiyeh. Today I’d be In Jail for that. Others tones I would wear a gas mask to school on Halloween

Hispanics are probably already a plurality in the county. When I graduated from my MCPS high school in 1993 the school was probably 70% white, now it is less than 40% white and Hispanics are the largest group


Hispanics were the plurality in MCPS at 30.8% in the 2017-18 school year.

So are the liberals who run the schools white supremacists?
