In the land of the free, school girl attacked by racist school guard for dropping piece of cake. Girl and mother arrested.

Racism permeates our county’s schools, as the Jena 6 case demonstrates. Now another case from Palmdale, CA illustrates the depth of the problem. A high school girl who dropped a piece of cake was assaulted by a school guard, had her wist broken, and was called “nappyhead” by the guard. She was then arrested and suspended from school. When her mother demanded the guard be arrested, the mother was arrested and then fired from her job by the school system. Also arrested was the student who took pictures on his cell phone of the the guard’s attack, as well as his sister, were also arrested.
Here is the local news report:
If we had a decent country, Palmdale would now be flooded with Federal Marshals who arrest the school officials for their hate crimes. A decent country just would not tolerate horrifying abuses like this.

[...] attack in the school lunchroom on a schoolgirl who dropped a piece of cake in Palmdale, CA [see this post and this one]. Perhaps most horrifying was that, when the girl’s mother, a school system [...]

I know Palmdale. My father lived there for awhile, and we would visit him as young teens. I hated the place. You could tell it crawled with ignorant rednecks. Lockheed was the big employer, building, if I’m not mistaken, the prototype of the Stealth bomber there. There are also a couple of big Air Force bases nearby.
Beautiful high desert. Low, mean lives. Blacks were ghettoized on the far east side of town, way out the Pearblossom Highway. Everyone, white and black, was waiting to strike it rich when the long-awaited, but never-arrived major international airport would be built there.
Thanks for your ongoing coverage of the racism in our schools.

This is horrible! But, it falls right in line with the Imperial America under the Bush Kingdom where security forces think they can do whatever they want, and interprate the law for thier own glee. I hope this girl, her Mother, and the kid who filmed the abuse are all vindicated by a massive lawsuit win.
These type of events make me ashamed to be an American!
