Sing it Loud and Clear

Who, as a high school kid, didn’t utter threats under their breath, or conjure curses, uselessly, against their teachers, parents or others in authority over themselves?  Anyone?  OK, I see one or two do-gooders raising their hands, so they’re excused and allowed to join the moronic zero tolerance lobby.  They’ll fit right in.

Godless, over at Gene Expression, alerts us to the story of a fifteen year old Wisconsin honor student, who cut his own rap album, outside of school, which, becaue it contains “scary” lyrics, at least to the principal of the school, may get him expelled.

Godless’ post, entitled “Assimilated Indian?" also provides the etymology of the word thug, something I did not know, and additional links to commentary on this subject.
