The Education Department’s civil rights arm has made a shocking discovery – minority preschool kids are suspended at a higher rate than whites. According to the AP, “black children represent about 18 percent of children enrolled in preschool programs in schools, but almost half of the students suspended more than once.” Now, you may be wondering why the Education Department has a “civil rights” division, or why preschoolers are suspended. Long story short, leftist educators have substituted “zero tolerance” policies for common sense discipline, resulting in suspensions for things like tardiness and disrespect. And the “civil rights” efforts of the Obama administration exist to convince minority groups that Democrats are ever vigilant in defending their interests and that more heavy-handed government intervention (in government education, no less) is the only answer. Yet when it comes to minority-on-minority gang violence in leftist enclaves like Chicago, the silence is deafening.
