Plenty of domestic terrorists have been given the same trial and procedure.
.
The only people making an issue out of this are the ones looking out for their political point of view. They are selfish and do not care about the greater good of this country.

I am just going to ask one question.(sort of)
.
If the next time a Christian kills an abortion doctor and the NY Times ran the headline: Christian Guns Down Unarmed Doctor how would Kraut react.
.
The right is criticizing anyone with questions about how or why. Some of the answers are obvious but why a man would go from volunteering for the US Armed Forces to gunning down a bunch of unarmed soldiers of thoses same US Armed Forces is something worth wondering about. At least for me it is.
On Fairness, speed of education-reform measures questioned

napalm,
If we all agree (and I hope we do) that education is important than why wouldn't it be a team effort.
.
Teachers should do their part but if a student falls behind for any reason the parents and teachers need to work together to bring the student up to speed. The biggest problem with the home is when education isn't valued and the parents undermine the efforts of the school.
.
I don't believe a teacher can teach a child from a broken, abusive, illiterate home at the same rate as a child from a healthy, well-educated, education is WAY important (ex. homework before play) home. It would appear to be impossible.
.
If we want to compete with other country's education system AND provide a well-rounded education to ALL children some work needs to be done at home with parental support.

A standardized test is not a good way to evaluate teachers.
.
The best way is to create common assessments at the school/department level and evaluate based on that.
.
Some of the points are valid and most good teachers don't fear being evaluated but using the WKCE is not a good idea.
.
If you use the WKCE to evaluate plan on having a bunch of kids educated to pass the WKCE. I have seen the WKCE, I want my children to learn way more and WAY DIFFERENT material.
.
Again, the majority of teachers don't fear being evaluated but make sure the evaluation is about education.

Suggest removal I guess this just goes to show how worthless "extended supervision" is. Our elected officials are depending on everyone accepting the inflated value of "extended supervision", electronic bracelets and "house arrest" so that they can substitute those "innovations" for jail time since they are reluctant to build more jails. Tougher laws won't mean anything until our elected officials begin to accept the value of "hard" jail time. Maybe what we really need are tougher elected officials.
.
WRONG!
.
Anyone willing to deny that this women has a serious alcohol addiction problem?
.
Just because extended supervision didn't work for this women doesn't mean it won't work for others. Blindly saying "more jail time" is not the answer. Sure, it is easier, and might make some feel better, but it doesn't work and is VERY EXPENSIVE.
.
This women doesn't have a problem with the law, she has a problem with alcohol.

usaret,
Would you be OK with all those religious Christmas symbols being of a Muslim Holiday? Or a Jewish Holiday?

Is your opinion just a concern about christianity or all religions in school?

Why do you politicize everything that shouldn't be?
