I was just looking at the Michigan Citizen's website. I am fascinated by the connection between the nice little bistro Le Petite Zinc and the owners of that nutty paper. Things just don't match-up.

But anyway, the photo on the website shows a primary class photo in a closing Detroit Public School taken very recently and it accompanies a story about the school closing. Three of the little children are flashing gang signs!

When I was teaching little kids, if such a disorderly thing happened, I'd have thanked and excused the photographer and refused to allow the children their hilarious moment at my expense [[as their teacher and example-provider) and at their school's expense. But, I guess, now its just the done thing to make yourselves and your school look stupid.
