Obama Decrees Race-Based Discipline In Our Nation's Public Schools

By imperial decree, Barack Obama has just mandated (via yet another executive order) that race-sensitive bureaucrats be hired to mandate "racial discipline quotas" in our nation's schools.

The American Thinker tells us, "The order charges his new racial justice team, in part, with 'promoting a positive school climate that does not rely on methods that result in disparate use of disciplinary tools.'"

In reality, we're talking about affirmative action on steroids. Now, instead of punishing student who commit offenses without regard to race, our nation's educators will now be "encouraged" and "instructed" to dole out punishment in accordance with demographic data. If a certain minority group comprises "X" percent of the general population, then only that same percentage of students will be punished for offenses. And if some students go unpunished, and others are punished disproportionately for less egregious acts... well that's just the luck of the dice. Obama's decree might not be right. It might not be moral. And it might not be in the best interest of the students; but at least the imperial decree is "fair" ... right?. Read the Rest of the Story
