Aid is piling up on Venezuela's border. Here's why it's not getting in

What kind of monster turns down humanitarian arms?

A little cryptic. What’s your take on what’s going on down there?

Compulsory world wide. The few dozen or so yearly American corpses are just a footnote to the real tragedy: hundreds of millions of destroyed spirits.

Maduro's ****ed up but our intentions with the humanitarian aid is to open up a path for a humanitarian invasion.

It's both school and puberty being horrible and gun availability. Taking either of those factors away would solve the problem I think, because it does not exist in countries that lack one of them

you know what I mean tho

The shootings are relatively inconsequential

The crushing of the human spirit is what we should be worried about

The actual shootings are like shark attacks or lightning strikes in that it’s hysterical to even give a ****

School shouldn’t be compulsory for kids any more than labor camps should be compulsory for adults

Did you find the whole school system that horrible? In my experience most problems with school stem from hoarding a bunch of teenagers together. The actual schooling could be mind-numbing sometimes but didn't bother me too much, I spent most of my school time making drawings. But of course you have a different perspective as a former teacher

I was pretty much ok with school

It’s not personal / as a teacher I met so many kids who weren’t suited for it

One story that I may have told before but years ago there was a bad hurricane and the power and water was out for weeks and I commented on how miserable it was and a student who was really delinquent, I mean in the ADULT criminal system said it was the best time of his life because he didn’t have to go to school and went fishing everyday and caught fish that he shared with people at a time when everyone was eating mres/

but if that kid went fishing instead of school when school was open they put him in jail

it might sound like what they dont put them in jail

but yes they do/ that’s the only way they can enforce the compulsory component

There’s millions like him
