A fifth-grader reported being bullied by his principal. Five days later, he was handcuffed and detained.
Why Was This 11-Year-Old Brownsville ISD Honor Student Put in Solitary For Three Days?
Because it’s Texas. The answer is always because it’s Texas… Well, okay. Sometimes it’s Florida too.
There is nothing wrong with The Texas Observer.

This is a serious over-generalization. Brownsville and the RGV vote reliably Democratic, and abuse of authority situations, involving school districts, criminal justice systems, and the police, et al, absolutely happen all over the country.
Yeah there’s some good people in Texas. That doesn’t change the fact that, for the most part, the entire state is a disgusting shit hole that is one of the biggest embarrassments in America.

There are some shitty parts of Texas for sure, but “for the most part?” You don’t know this state dude. Texas reliably votes like 55% Republican and 45% Democratic, and there are tons of awesome people, beautiful scenery, and multicultural urban centers here. The state is gerrymandered to hell though
Was in the RGV right before Trump was elected - and again during the Beto-Cruz fight - the amount of support for conservatives there is MIND BOGGLING. I kept asking ‘how the fuck are so many latinos in the can for Cruz and Trump?’ I do not understand, especially around Harlingen and the other ‘towns’ down there.
Democrats are frequently still racist, obedience-loving sacks of shit, they’re just the lesser of two evils in a system where the greater of two evils is a pack of utterly cynical greed-as-a-virtue actual fascists.
Sounds like a little overachiever who is pretty mature for his age, up against a Karen principal who is annoyed by the kid instead of encouraging him.
Even worse than that really. She’s a principal who should’ve been fired, but instead they swapped her and the counselor from her school with the one in this one. Yes, drag the overperforming school down instead of outright replacing the staff of the underperforming one. brilliant move.
He asked her on day one where the old counselor was and she took that as an insult (because she knows she’s shit) instead of a genuine question like an 11yo would have because what fuckin 11yo, no matter how gifted, is tracking the staff moves of their school district?!
“Gee, I wonder why kids these days don’t trust law enforcement!”
This is horrifying. I know abuse of power is nothing new, especially in education and law enforcement, but people find new lows every day it seems. I’m glad others were there to step up and help.
If you insist on spamming this lie over and over I’m going to keep replying with the actual facts. There is nothing wrong with The Texas Observer.
