Creepy Teachers & Other Shameful Authority Figures


Shawn

Recommended Posts

I would like to think that this kind of abuse is just at this school, or maybe a handful of schools around the nation at most. However it seems more and more often these days police or security officers are abusing their power. They forget that they are there to protect and serve the public. It's disgraceful that torture like this happens, but we still have a president that condones torture and tv shows that even glamorize it. It's hard to know where to place the blame. Of course most of the blame belongs on the perpetrators, but I think at least some needs to be placed on media and other authority figures.

Hard to believe :sad:

"A Teenage pupil has been withdrawn from her school after CCTV cameras were installed in the pupils' toilets."

According to the article, "Ceredigion Council said it had installed the cameras after incidents of "major concern". Spokeswoman Anwen Francis said: "Any such viewing of CCTV footage is undertaken by senior members of staff having Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) clearance."

Hey Credit Card companies - keep up this nonsense and one of these days, your customers are going to turn on you!!!!!

FrugalDad notes that 'Credit Cards Turn To Behavioral Analysis To Manage Risk' :o

Just the other day, Writer’s Coin passed along a story originally appearing on Good Morning America. From the Writer’s Coin, a brief description of the video:

It featured Kevin Johnson, a responsible credit-card user that had recently seen the limit on his American Express Blue card go down by $7,000. What could possibly cause AmEx to lower his limit when he pays his card in full every month, has a 764 FICO score, and owns his own business?

When Johnson questions American Express to find out why his credit limit was decreased, he received the following response:

The answer: Kevin Johnson had recently visited a Wal-Mart that he doesn’t typically go to, and the reason AmEx gave him was:

“Other customers who have used their card at establishments where you recently shopped have a poor repayment history with American Express.”

Yikes! So American Express is now determining credit worthiness based on where you shop?

College student, 24, suggests in class that women should have equal rights. Sentenced to 20 years for blasphemy [Afghanistan]

"Parwez Kambakhsh was convicted of blasphemy for asking questions in a university class about women's rights under Islam. Prosecutors also said he illegally distributed an article he printed off the Internet that asks why Islam does not modernize to give women equal rights. He also allegedly wrote his own comments on the paper.

The case against the 24-year-old Kambakhsh, whose brother has angered Afghan warlords with his own writings, has come to symbolize Afghanistan's slide toward an ultraconservative view on religious and individual freedoms."

When Savana Redding was just 13 years old, she was strip-searched by school officials for allegedly possessing prescription-strength ibuprofen. This traumatizing search was based solely on the false and uncorroborated accusation of a classmate who was caught with similar pills.

Overzealous school officials violated Savana's rights and called into question basic constitutional protections for all students in schools across America.

Currently the Supreme Court is hearing arguments.

A coach has resigned after he sent out an email at the beginning of the season intended to humor the parents. The link includes his original email as well as his notice of resignation.

A brief excerpt:

OK, here’s the real deal: Team 7 will be called Green Death. We will only acknowledge “Team 7” for scheduling and disciplinary purposes. Green Death has had a long and colorful history, and I fully expect every player and parent to be on board with the team. This is not a team, but a family (some say cult), that you belong to forever. We play fair at all times, but we play tough and physical soccer. We have some returning players who know the deal; for the others, I only expect 110% at every game and practice. We do not cater to superstars, but prefer the gritty determination of journeymen who bring their lunch pail to work every week, chase every ball and dig in corners like a Michael Vick pit bull.

TAMPA - For almost two months, four middle school students continually picked on a 13-year-old schoolmate.

On April 30, authorities say, the bullying turned brutal.

While two of the students pinned down the victim on a locker room floor at Walker Middle School, the other two raped him with a broomstick and hockey stick, deputies said Friday.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
