school push out was created. This pipeline starts with punitive practices in the class room. With over burdened school districts, overcrowded class rooms, teachers often seek the quickest and often the most punitive consequence to manage the classroom.

Let’s take a look at his stats: he has no plans for life except for playing in the NFL as a career despite the fact that less than 5% of student athletes go to the pro’s.

With that being said, John Bessler, in his article “America’s Death Penalty: Just another form of violence,” goes to great length to prove that the death penalty is harmful to America’s future.
