Education

Education in Utah
Salt Lake City, UT – February 2011

Education in Utah sucks.  A lot.   

If you don’t already know, Utah is #49 of 50 US States in per pupil spending right now.   There are many reasons for this, amongst them the insanely high birth rate in the state thanks to the LDS church.

Methinks that the comic bunch of ultra rightwing fuckwits in the Utah Legislature should stop trying to fellate zombie Reagan by firing off idiotic message bills, naming state firearms, and focus on getting Utah’s education a bit better funded.  If not, we are going to keep producing stellar morons.

Case in Point:
Me and OG were doing lunch on MLK day when a herd of little shits walked in with their moms.  The heard plopped down and proceeded to make me insane with a lot of babbling and other common hijinks inflicted on the public by little shits.  After a bit, the little shits and their moms started to talk about why we celebrate MLK day.  One of the little shits started to run off at the mouth about things she learned in school, all whilst furiously convulsing and jumping around like an epileptic meth addict in the throes of a VERY severe overdose.

Education in this state SUCKS or those kidlets’ command of World History does NOT impress.  We Celebrate MLK day because of Dr. King, not anyone else…that is why the day bears HIS name and not some other tool’s.  Lincoln did indeed free the slaves, but not by personally “fighting the bad guys with a cannon”.  You did, however, get the “and then that one man shot his brain off” part right…mostly. 

Likewise, “Anna Oakley” did not “beat the Nazis” by “shootin’ her rifle off her shoulder with a mirror”, though that sounds a LOT like a trick she used to do in Buffalo Bill’s Wild, Wild West show.  You were dead on the money when you said that “Anne Frank had a secret diary in a secret room and got killed by the Nazis and throwed in a hole”.

I guess Anna Oakley didn’t shoot that strait.
