New California law will turn public schools into undisciplined free-for-all zones with students running roughshod over teachers
Gee, what could go wrong with this?
By Jon Dougherty
(TNS) The Democrats who rule California remind us of juvenile delinquents who managed to grow up and find themselves in charge of things, enacting laws based not on common sense or the public good but instead on the whims of childlike fantasies.
The latest absurdity is aimed at disrupting every single public school in the state, as highlighted in a tweet from Andrew Pollack, whose daughter, Meadow, was murdered at Parkland High in Florida by a crazed teen lunatic the system failed to identify and stop.
These are the same liberal democrat policies that led to my daughter getting murdered.
Parents it’s your responsibility where your kids go to school.
Time for home school or private. Don’t roll the dice with your child’s safety! https://t.co/T14KiEdqnM

That’s right: Soon, no school in California will be able to suspend some students for disobeying a teacher.
Mind you, the Left-wing policies of the Obama Department of Education failed to hold Parkland shooter Nicolas Cruz accountable, as did the principle of the school.
KRON reports:
Starting next school year, it will be illegal for public schools in the state to suspend students in first through fifth grade for willfully defying teachers or administrators.
Then, from 2021 through 2025, it will be temporarily extended to kids in grades six through eight.
Supporters say suspensions for willful defiance are disproportionately used against students of color.
Oh, of course. So tolerant, liberal California is intolerant, bigoted, racist California. Right.
So, if the youngest students aren’t taught to behave in class, who believes they are going to grow up to be disciplined students in junior high and high school (other than the lunatics who passed this law)?
Worse, the new mandates are actually certain to cause disruption and willful defiance. KRON also notes:
Limiting and banning smartphone use is at the center of another law affecting schools in 2020.
School boards will have the power to ban devices with the exception of emergencies or other special situations, such as medical reasons.
Supporters say smart phone use is linked to lower student performance and interferes with the educational mission of schools.
Okay, so what happens when a ‘student of color’ gets his or her smartphone taken away?
Again, while these new laws are 100 percent California, the trend away from holding students (and their parents) responsible for poor behavior in class has its origins in the Obama administration (surprise!). And for the same alleged reason…racism!
As is typical with so many other policies, federal meddling in what should be a local matter leads to poor results.
This is the conclusion reached Monday by a Heritage Foundation panel about a school discipline initiative, launched by the Obama administration, that suddenly became the subject of national debate after the Feb. 14 massacre at a high school in Parkland, Florida.
A “Dear Colleague” letter from the Department of Education in 2014—designed to crack down on racial disparities in school discipline and reduce the “school to prison pipeline”—created negative unintended consequences, according to Manhattan Institute scholar Max Eden, who was on the panel.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., recently suggested in a memo to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos that the guidance to schools led to “systematic failures” to report the Parkland shooter to legal authorities.
Specifically, the panel found:
Schools Feared Investigation, Adopted Lower Standards for Discipline
Unwillingness to Punish Minority Students Put Other Minority Students in Danger
Teachers Feel Like They Have Lost Control (say it isn’t so!)
Arrests and Suspensions Went Down, So Did Academic Standards (because disruptive students disrupt the education process…duh)
Federal Meddling Leads to Local Failure

California, completely ruled by the Garbage Party, is a basket case in terms of the negative impact of public policies regarding homelessness, pot use, taxes, overregulation…and now public schools.

I was a substitute teacher in Dallas during the first oil business depression (1986-1992), and the minority maggots back then had no respect for anyone who wasn’t bigger and meaner than they were; I was, and so had an abbreviated tenure as an educator. The rot in America has been suppurating that long. Old, decent, America is no more.
Good luck finding teachers California
I saw an old western TV show, Death Valley Days, 1953 episode. A pretty school teacher arrives from Cornell to a rough mining town in the west. The unruly schoolchildren have run off eight previous teachers. They begin to abuse her after a Christian prayer at the beginning of class! Imagine that today.
Two boys are tossing a ball at the back of the class. The teacher draws a revolver from her purse and shoots the ball out of the air.
Imagine that today.
She gains the respect of the pupils as they realize she is a sharpshooter. lol
Ha, my 10th grade teacher would tip you over if you leaned back in your desk, and hurl 90mph chalk at your head if you talked out of turn.
The headmaster had cricket paddle on his wall; which read, Board of Education.
Most of our teachers coached our sports teams too. So, there was no foolishness. These teachers were big, and worked out at our gym, so you could see they could clearly chuck you around if they so chose. We had detentions, suspensions, and expulsions all the time. Lol
Let us not forget that the majority of democraps are of the female persuasion.
a society that destroys the family, will destroys everything else.
I am glad to hear about this new law. I will no longer feel guilty for taking the early retirement offer 140 of us took in Pomona several years ago; the situation was near intolerable then, imagine how spineless vice-principals will be now, with no-one but the teachers to bully.
har har har. viva baja pomona! ARRIBA! (sfx: sound of gunshots fired into the air)
Why would anyone want to be a teacher in California? The students know what they can get away with and push the boundaries; thereby, disrupting classes and putting teachers in danger. Once again, California leads the way in stupidity. Too bad, they don’t spend their energies in making their schools safe and the students are actually educated.
This is just reason number 200 that California is the “land of STUPID government”

I will predict that the Teachers will be leaving soon, or they will be in the Hospital after getting beat up by the students.
Get me out of this Twilight Zone (i.e.Pelosi Family Cartel)
Spawn of the stupid teachers’ unions! Bad Teachers can’t get fired for anything! Bad students can’t get disciplined for anything!
Anything to keep the K-12 classrooms filled and the teacher union dues flowing in this state.
Illegals coming through open borders
High birth rate illegals and anchor baby citizenship
Illegal family caravans
Sanctuary cities
No expulsions
No skills testing
No teacher performance evaluations
Teachers unions demand them all - just to keep the CTA flush with cash so more Democrats can be elected in this state.
Vote for President Donald J. Trump. Get your school vouchers.
The sad thing is; everytime Kalifornia does something stupid like this a native Texan has a few more kooki “Norther Exposure” types in his neighborhood ruining his fair city.
Commifornia now has a majority proof demonrat government. Look for much more of this non-sense until the public does something about it.
Ship all the TDS crazy progressives to CA and then build a wall around the place.
Another aspect in the Democrat war on the people. The lives of the middle and working classes is systematically being destroyed.
Pollack’s daughter was murdered by a deep state hypno-zombie shooter. Usually, they use mental cases. Most are medicated. Look up Voice to Skull, educate yourself!
Time for local jurisdictions to declare themselves sanctuary areas with respect to education laws.
As usual, the DemonRats are on the side of the criminals. They actively work against the law abiding citizens. The left loves their criminals because they undermine society’s decency. They hate this country and work daily to destroy it “for the sake of the children.”
“Supporters say suspensions for willful defiance are disproportionately used against students of color.”
Could that be because “willful defiance” is disproportionally exhibited by “students of color”??
Students “of color” are disproportionately suspended because they disproportional act up. Race should not be a factor in school discipline at all. Remember when leftists used to claim to want a “colorblind” society? Now we see that was a lie too.
Think pf this as karma. Teachers have been the “handmaidens” of progressive indoctrination of our youth. Now they will see what that leads to.
There’s a teacher pedo story every week. What type of background investigation goes into new hires? Or do they just hire SPLC pedo-rejects?
Greetings from Vermont. We have the same problems, our department of Children and families experience the same problems as minorities in California, as we’ve been taken over by socialist policies under the cover of our democratic party. It is bringing the same results doesn’t matter the color of your skin. We are all white and we’re failing our kids just like they are failing the minority kids. We were the leading state in the nation for addicted births per capita in 2014. We’ve been infiltrated by out of state organizers….Bernie is one of them.
