"I know exactly what's going on. You were unable to keep up with the quite low standards of public schooling and now you're complaining that you lost out on the opportunity."

"isn't an insinuation"

I made A's and B's for 2 months before my last expulsion. I Aced the DUI class after listening to a lecture, and beforehand, I got my GED without studying...after sleeping through the majority of middleschool and leaving highschool with half a credit

Age doesn't make an adult. Circumstance does

I'm starting to think representatives are necessary... just with the right people in the right spot for the right circumstance instead

True, but it is not feasible to have the courts determine adulthood on a case by case basis. No on ewould know how to do anything, for there would always be a chance the rules for minors would apply. So the law has made a cut off when most people are of adult maturity.

Anyway, what are you even arguing for now?

what am I argueing, t'is questionable?

Anyway, I believe you to be wrong, it is completely feasible to determine the maturity of every individual, it's just not ideal for our current state. A state whose current free market allows the feds to spend 360 million dollars on advertising healthcare. 360 million dollars for healthcare just for an "insignificant portion" of society that 320 million live in; A state that "competes" with each other while super corps laugh at small business's that rise and fall on a daily basis; A state that rebelled against tyrants and monarchs, just to oddly sit neutralized, trillions of dollars in debt, largely corrupted, before then entire world and universe.

So, what am I arguing?

Probably that kids are dumb anyway; you know, so why cant I mob wit some of my old homies in school?

I never heard of this age thing, but it seems like a pretty good idea to me. I just hope no one will be in a position where they'll be in high school at that age. I have known people who failed high school, but it never got like that.

Anywho,

It is in my recollection that intellectuals and governing officials of the past may not have been to sup portive of the current indignation, regarding our education system. And not just that, it's foreseeable that our forefathers may not have intended to have an entire nation simply turn a blind eye while expelled children come to age.

It's not feasible. Possible doesn't mean feasible. The courts are backed up as is, and making a maturity decision in every case would back them up even more. Worse than that is that it would blur so many laws for everyone. How can we know how to deal with people properly if there is no bright line of adulthood? If there are two 100% identical situations, how can we expect people to act if in one case the other party can be deemed immature and in the other situation, mature?

That's to say if the monetary problems weren't solved.

In retrospect;
"every" situation is irrelevant; we are talking about education and the right we all have to go to "public" schools;
and how people shouldn't have to pay the private sect., (with private motifs) to attain an education.
Besides, it's not like the state is paying to educate them twice...it's just later.

Did you snail mail or call the Dept. of Education? Perhaps you should try to contact them again. Would be interesting to hear their response.

Nothing I'm guessing. Let's stay to one topic at a time sir, you're not making the best impression around here and if you want to start posting manifestos about conspiracies and shit, you have a site provided blog for that. Don't do it in threads like this one that are about one subject and then derail your own stuff with others. Also replying to your own posts is pretty tacky too.

Should the age discrimination act of 1975 be enforced?

What manner of dumbassery is this? Are we seriously going there?

Why limit it to high school? There's plenty of retards that don't know basic arithmetic or writing and are 30, 40 yrs old. Hell! It's my right as a 'murican to go to grade school with little kids since I'm a dumb shit.

Stuff like this makes think we should have a free program where retards are issued a single shot shotgun with 1 load of buckshot and then instructed to rinse said mouth out with buckshot via the trigger.

But that might be too complex. Perhaps they should be instructed to find the nearest water source and then take a deep breath of said water source.

If it's good enough for fishes, its good enough for retards

Studying on your own is extremely difficult for a lot of people, even in adulthood it is still quite challenging compared to the school system. Trying to get a H.S. degree equivalent out of high school costs a lot of clams and a lot of those without education aren't known for their wealth. The GED test is like $120 where I live and we're one of the poorest shittiest states in this wasteland.

Best case scenario, "Bob" the 22 year old trains like crazy, goes to take the GED, passes. -100$

worst case scenario, "Nick" needs extensive assistance which could cost him thousands of dollars, unless he feels like robbing a bank or has family with $ then he won't get to the point of a GED.

Where I'm at HS education / assistance has no free option.

Make all education free. I'll gladly pay my taxes for something useful.

If all education is free, then I don't care. However, as far as education that needs to be made free, this is about as low priority as you can get.

Um did you respond to the right person? I wasn't responding to myself, i was responding to uhnomal. I am just really confused by what he's trying to say, or at least why he's posting Illuminati pictures and no one is saying anything about it. Hell he's not even talking about it in his posts he just posts the pictures there randomly.

I was using what you said as a springboard to respond to him in a "mod hat" sort of way to warn him that his behavior is attracting the wrong sort of attention from our sort. But I think he's aware, so that dart was probably a bit of a miss. Honestly I'm starting to think he doesn't really care what we say or do in reference to him so maybe it's better if people just don't engage.

Ok, so apparently you just want your topics now to be ways to post whatever comes to your mind, and as I've said, that's what your NG blog is for. Learn how to play on our forums correctly, or please don't play here at all. Locked because I think the debate has run it's course and the OP is not being responsible.
