It's Friday and the weekend, starts here. This week a possible disaster was averted when teachers at a Cudahy Middle School were alerted to a 12 year old who brought a gun to school. While we're happy this crises was avoided, what's upsetting is the $1 billion program cut by The Felon President, which sought to expand mental health training for counselors in our schools. Next, in Texas they want to pass legislation based on a debunked hoax, because Republicans hate public schools, plain and simple. Then, totally cool robot Mark Zuckerberg doesn't want to connect you with friends anymore, he wants to create friends for you. And yet another boat update and don't forget to vote for your favorite fat bird!
