If this does not anger you as a human being then I am sorry for you; if this does not inspire you to change the system as future educators then perhaps you should think of a different path. This is the stuff "they" do not teach you in class. This is the real world, a reality many of us will have to and will chose to face when we are done with our program. I do not understand how the government and the education system can sit and watch as the good children in America are thrown away. In no way is this fair and in no way are the people who can do something to change it doing anything. Why isn't there more of an outcry after this? And why aren't we, as future educators, discussing these issues. Just because we chose to not recognize reality does not mean reality is not there. These instances disgust me, but what disgusts me more is that in America an honor roll student can be beaten to death on his way home from school and no one is doing anything to change it. It is our turn to change things and I only hope half of us have the conviction to do so.
