500 Times On The Board: Hempstead Is A Nice Town In New York
Maybe we should encourage a few Georgia school administrators to take a refresher course in geography. They seem to have set themselves up for a bit of ridicule this week. They pulled a student out of class for wearing a shirt with the name of his former hometown on it. Shame on them. Let's all go give a few nice clicks to the town of Hempstead, NY 516.
Considering the school's zero tolerance attitude, it's a good thing for the poor kid that he hadn't just moved from Two Guns, Arizona. Or Hooker, California. Or Intercourse, Pennsylvania. Or worse yet, Toad Suck, Arkansas. None of these are bad places, but for people who look to see the evil in innocent children, they would present great ammunition.
