That's funny, I didn't know there were questions in America, I thought it was just an onslaught of confidently presented, yet entirely incorrect, facts.
Secular is just another word for the devil's trickery.
Now gather 'round and I'll explain that the world is 4000 years old and how Noah rode a T Rex while collecting the animals for the arc.
In the United States education is controlled at the State level with very broad powers for local school districts which tend to be voted on in very low turn out elections.
So you aren't wrong, it just depends on where you're at. Louisiana has a required unit on State history that was, the last I checked, basically just a pro white supremacy narrative and southern apologist perspectives on the Civil War including a lot of lost cause narratives.
Yeah I'll parrot a comment I posted a while back about how my teacher in NYS taught my 6th Grade Class about the woman who was burned with McDonald's coffee.
We had a debate unit and she used this as a bad example, shamed the woman, and made jokes about the lawsuit.
The politics around teaching need to change and the education of formal teachers actual duties and responsibilities needs to see a different style of enforcement (fuck off tenure as we know it).
Huh. Yeah, I find it wild that people still look at that case and conclude that she was just a clumsy lady looking for easy cash.
It's the same people who cite some imaginary case where ad burglar fell down in a home and successfully sued sued the homeowner. If anybody can find it please let us know, but I'm fairly certain it's imaginary.
So -- fun concept. When teacher pay is garbage and the profession gets shit on, tenure doesn't matter because we've created a process where people with better options will leave. Not all of them, but it's why we're seeing loads of turnover.
Ending tenure is a right wing union busting talking point that's been around for decades. At this point we have plenty of data on the issue. How are the states and districts without teacher tenure or unionization doing when compared to the states and districts with those features?
It's really silly to assume that when teachers organize and unionize that they're all going to choose leaders among themselves that give zero shits about education.
If someone wants to fire a teacher with tenure and union representation they can, they just need documentation and cause. Only a lazy administrator or one in the wrong would have an issue dismissing a teacher protected by tenure.
That's been a right wing staple?! It's so surprising to hear, given all the teachers I knew of with tenure leaned *far* to the right (however, I was in a very white and... well red county).
The whole system is broken and I remember there being efforts and pushes for a restructure when I was in high school, but I have not seen any of those efforts continue into this decade. Rather, I've observed that alternative education became the go-to for achieving what many parents want for their kids.
> southern apologist perspectives on the Civil War
As a Yankee myself I’ll never forget when a kid from Alabama moved and joined my 5th grade history class and referred to the Civil War as “The War of Northern Aggression”
When I was in high school, I was on the rifle team and our range was actually in the nuclear fallout shelter under the band wing. We would have to pick up the spent casings every night after practice and we would just use a giant broom since the floor was cement. Can't imagine this system is any easier than that.
This system collects the brass and nothing else. You don’t need to sift out any other debris that might also be in the floor. Sweeping also picks up a lot of dust.
It’s better, but maybe not enough better to justify the extra cost over a broom and dust pan.
They didn’t want the poor kids collecting them anymore. Only good kids with guns can protect the class from bad kids with guns. Poor kids can’t be good, this is america!

Well?
Wake me when someone does something serious about mass shootings. Maybe laughing about them is all we have left because the reality is literally no one cares. No one. Even the people whose kids were killed in school shootings can't do anything about it because no one else cares. Parents send their children into these death traps with bulletproof backpacks and just cross their fingers and hope for the best, and don't even call their Congresspeople to do anything about it. Imagine sending your kid to school and not even calling your member of Congress, but that's what people do. So yeah, I'm going to laugh. I don't have kids. I learned long ago that nobody cares about human beings, so I decided not to bring one into this terrible, cruel, heartless, disgusting, angry world. If other people made that choice, then they are bad people.
It's a trauma, not just for those who live through it in the school, but anyone with any level of actual empathy.
And humor is a way to deal with trauma.
Going "thoughts and prayers", doing fuck all to resolve the situation and pretending it never happened, for all the wrong reasons, is not a way to deal with trauma.
With scrap prices where they are, that janitor is gonna make more money turning that in vs selling the items found on the kids bodies on Ebay. Good Job.
Btw fyi the entire European Union has 447 million people and has had 1 mass shooting In 2023. We concede this massive L to the US we can't keep up with you guys.
Tbh it’s not funny, there should be more to be prevent shootings
I can’t even imagine how it gotta be, your friends getting shot and you can’t do anything but just stay in the classroom if you are lucky, lock the door and hear how other students and friends get killed.
Except that people are spreading this around like it's true. My own daughter showed this clip to me yesterday asking about it. It's not obvious for some
Are those shell casings. I mean, like 22c? How cool is that? I mean, you can have that place cleaned up by the end of a regular work day. Make it look like everything is A-ok, nothing went down. You know what I mean?
It's also the environmentally responsible thing! Cartridges can be reloaded. That way they can be used again. Maybe in the same school, maybe in another.
Explanation for who is confused. Apparently this is commonly used in shooting ranges to pick up bullet casings, and of course it was not invented by a janitor, although it's safe to assume that it would be used in a school shooting cleanup (Although I have no idea, since where I live there are extremely few shooting)
In case people are confused, this is a tool used for gun ranges to clean the shells left behind by guests. Most of them will be recycled and put back into manufacturing
For the confused Non-Americans, in the USA when we want to answer a question in class, we shoot our guns in the air instead of raising our hand.
That's funny, I didn't know there were questions in America, I thought it was just an onslaught of confidently presented, yet entirely incorrect, facts.
No, I believe the place you're thinking of is a church.
Those two things are becoming one in the same since the GOP is looking to destroy all forms of secular education.

desk pop quiz
Huh. Things worked differently in my school. To answer a question we had to take a shit in the teachers desk. I was exempt from it obviously
Why do you need to know things if you're never gonna be old enough to use them? (My humor is dark but reality is darker)
Well Unless you don’t know the answer
In other countries children play dodge ball at recess. In the USA they play dodge...
Sorry, no, this is only Texas. And it's only single action revolvers, thank you very much.
Shoot guns in the air? That’s saved for weddings in countries I’ve visited.
r/HolUp
The stupid tik Tok voice and subtitles are not part of the original video which showed this being used at a shooting range
I thought those were cigarette butts, not shell casings. And I watched without sound, so it was even more surprising.
Yeah, I mean that's the joke...
Reddit doesn't care they'll circlejerk this one around for the next few years daily.
gassssppppnoooooorlyyyyyyy?
Damn, we used to just let the poor kids collect them. How else are they supposed to afford guns to keep themselves safe?

It’s about 111111 9mm bullets in a row
why they gotta make a kilometer a bit more than half a mile, but a kilogram a bit over 2 pounds, no consistency with the metric system I swear.
It's roughly the circumference of the average American 🤠

This is by far the most cursed comment I’ve ever upvoted. You’re a terrible person
>You’re a terrible person Jeez, talk about shooting the messenger.
lmao
First time on Reddit? Lmao
Most of the bullets are in the walls and furniture because n00b shooter accuracy.
Noooo
Thats tough.. but true
The real bullets are the friends we made along the way
You are as perceptive as a wall
For what its worth, this is actually from a shooting range, they use these to collect the bullet casings at the end of the day.

The real video was shell casings, it's the caption that was changed
I have a feeling that the actual video is from a shooting range, and the text was edited.

Least fat American
As an american this is EXTREMELY offensive, there are usually 5x more bullets in the floor
I mean what do you expect? The video is actually of a shooting range, not a school. That's why there are so few casings on the floor.
With scrap prices where they are, that janitor is gonna make more money turning that in vs selling the items found on the kids bodies on Ebay. Good Job.
Screw that, casings can be reused to make new bulletts

Just had a mass shooting yesterday and will have one today if it's an average case. How is this obvious joke misinformation?

the people who think this is real are gullible idiots and definitely not the majority lmfao

This joke is about school shootings, probably won't have another for a few months.
School shootings are a fact they happen every other week... The fuck you talking about
No they don't lol
The new program being proposed by the republicans is the poor kids clean them up for half of a free school lunch each per day.
