I was going to post yesterday about how there were some nice (shocking! nice!) high schoolers planted outside Walgreens on Irving gathering signatures to save the JROTC program in SF schools.
You may have heard back in 2006 that the school board voted to phase the program out because of it felt the military's policy on gays violated the school boards policy on equal rights for gays (oh and also, they just hate the military).
So now we find out today that the school board has hastily assembled another vote to stop giving PE credits to students participating in JROTC, after the same resolution failed just last week. Why the hasty meeting? Two of the three members who voted against the resolution (which failed in deadlock at 3-3 originally) are...wait for it...out of town.
It feels a bit like Willet Creek Dam...where's Jefferson Smith when we need him?
