Was This “Tattle-Tale Culture” Encouraged by Public Schools? By Joe Jarvis - October 22, 2018
The band Bowling for Soup has a song called “High School Never Ends.”
In it, the singer complains that he thought all the terrible things about high school would end once he graduated.
Unfortunately, he discovers…
The whole damned world is just as obsessed With who’s the best dressed and who’s having sex Who’s got the money, who gets the honeys Who’s kinda cute and who’s just a mess And you still don’t have the right look And you don’t have the right friends Nothing changes but the faces, the names and the trends High school never ends
I couldn’t help thinking of this song as I watched four videos this week of “tattle- tales” calling the police for the dumbest reasons.
“Cornerstore Caroline” called the police to accused a nine-year-old black boy of groping her butt at a convenience store. Security cameras showed that his backpack accidentally brushed up against her.
“Golf Cart Gail” called police on a father on the sidelines of his son’s soccer game, as well as apparently the rest of the rival team’s parents.
