News article on blind student abuse

Post by TheTrueCole »

Me and my friend are fans of the game and my friend found a news article about students in a school for the blind who were severely abused by their teachers. Nothing too significant, but we thought it would be good to put it out there.

I wish only the worst for the staff of that school. I'd dare anyone of them to force me into doing those horrible inhumane actions or laying a finger on me.

Bear in mind that is the Toronto Star, which has a reputation for sensationalizing.

But if even the mildest of those stories are true, hang 'em high.

At least it's not how it used to be
Before schools for the disabled opened, you were simply put in jail you were useless.

Honestly though, WTF, Why does Education have to be so wrong? It's supposed to help, but sometimes, it just destroys.
