I went to prison to teach middle school for a year, you dimwad.  It was to
educate those who didn't get it the first time around, and to let me see
for myself what a monster we've created to keep you safe.

And I'm not a city official, I'm a township official.  And the reason I'm
there is for money--everyone's got to do a job.  You have never heard me
profess any faith at all in the electoral system or in the legislative
processes:  I challenge you to find any utterance on the -AT--list where I've
said anything as lame as that liberal-faith healing crap you say about
changing the constitution of the U$.  You are telling us what White
Knights we have running the U$.  I say you are full of crapola.

I now teach in a public school, so I guess using your bait there above for
a rational system of judging how someone must think without asking them,
then me and every other teacher in the system must kowtow to and support
everything the local shool board panders off as policy.  

YOU are the one who professes faith in the system, komrade, not me.
