I just don’t understand that story at all. I don’t get it. So many questions and so little time.
- What is the problem with walking down the hall to go to the bathroom?
- Peeing in a bucket? Really?
- What is a “lockdown” in a public school? Never heard of that before.
- Does everyone have to pee at that school all the time? What’s the deal with all the peeing?
- Putting a bucket in a corner is a method to deal with nuclear attack?
- That’s in the handbook? “Put a bucket in the corner to pee into.” Whaaaaaa?
I need to go lie down.


OK, very quickly, the Latino students were joining protests re:immigration – they were walking out. The teacher imposed a “lock down” to stop it – which she is entitled to do, apparantly. She went too far, and stopped students from leaving the class room – forcing them to pee in buckets IN the class room.
Stupid? Yes. “Honest Mistake”? Hmmmm, no, just stupid. Where were the teachers in all of this? Didn’t they complain? I don’t know. Pretty ridiculous.
