"NOT ME, I DON'T DISCRIMINATE!"

Ed plan barely passes

I think DR. LATHAM and the committee members, CHARLIE GALLO, JOHN FORD, and RICK STARBARD think they must carry the mantle as PROTECTOR of EDUCATION. I applaud them all if that was wgat they aspired to do. I like someone who does things for the principle of something. You know, like running for school committee and REFUSING to take DONATIONS.I can respect that, even when I disagree.

BUT.......

I am not convinced that's what happened here, You see, in the time I have been covering the LSC I can only remember one other time parents were put through such a wringer and guess what. It was THEM. Remember I wrote about it LAST HALLOWEEN. Once again the ITEM sucks my journalistic DUST. Don't forget, I am not a reporter, just a parent who is nothing but a poor, disabled poet.

Did you ever wonder what the REAL story is behind this willingness to fly in the face of CASE LAW.Is it the EDUCATIONAL LEVEL of the parents? I kind of doubt it. I mean I've never heard it raised before and this time because of the parents' disabilities both will be around FULL-TIME to instruct the kids.

WAIT A MINUTE.....

what's that you say, they are DISABLED? Well that puts things in a little different light. LPS does have a record of singling out and persecuting other DISABLED people by BLOCKING their e mail and PREVENTING them from writing their child's school and communicating about progress.

You know, many people say that the DISABLED are the LAST sehement of society to afforded their CIVIL RIGHTS. Maybe it's really their HUMAN RIGHTS.
