I was gobsmacked to read that a school district in Fresno (that’s California, ranked 42
in education) has voted to give $500,000 to the police department to pay for a gunfire tracking system! Not just for the schools (although each school site will now be a “detection center” — how’s that for multi-use?), but for a total of 6 square miles of surrounding neighborhood.
Somehow I don’t think this is quite what John Dewey had in mind...
