On Dec. 5, administrators, who had worked alongside Principal Garza, sought to file further charges against Murray of aggravated assault. He allegedly pulled another student’s hair and tried to cut his finger with scissors, which Murray apologized for and said he had mimed cutting the boy’s paper, not his finger. … Data from Brownsville ISD seen by The Observer showed its officers made 3,102 student arrests between May 2021 and Nov. 2023. Nearly 60% of those were on felony charges and 76 of those kids were in elementary school.

This is insane. It seems like it’s really true that the wickedness a nation imposes on another it will eventually impose on itself. It’s especially heinous that the weakest member of the nation (a child) is subject to cruel punishment and legal charges like aggravated assault while the most powerful member (the literal president) boasts about “grabbing [women] by the pussy”, has several charges of sexual assault against him, yet nothing happens. It’s becoming obvious that the law is meant to keep the powerless subservient.
