The Arizona Department of Education recently began telling school districts that teachers whose spoken English it deems to be heavily accented or ungrammatical must be removed from classes for students still learning English.

Oh my fucking god

There are whole TOWNS in AZ where the primary language is Spanish because IT'S BEEN SPANISH FOR CENTURIES. WTF WTF WTF.

How is this even legal?

Also, my kids' science teacher speaks with a heavy German accent... as does my friend R, a very respected biochemist. Should they be prohibited from teaching? That's just fucking stupid.

Richard Feynman had a heavy Boston accent, maybe he should have been banned from teaching.

Holy shit 

Wait, whose going to teach the ESL classes if people that actually speak Spanish aren't allowed to talk to the kids that don't know a word of English?

Bertroche said, when referring to illegal immigrants, that "We should catch 'em, we should document 'em, make sure we know where they are and where they are going. I actually support microchipping them. I can microchip my dog so I can find it. Why can't I microchip an illegal?"

It's okay because they're not people, they're illegals!

And how good is the Department's English?  Can anyone ask the board to reassign themselves?

My uncle got into a rant about this earlier today, which he followed up with "Barack Obama hates America"

Doobie doobie doooooo, just another night in Tucson.

Another night?  Just how many murders do you get in Tucson?

It's hard to get real data, because the city is quick to label unimportant ones as "death by misadventure".

But you have a 1 in 99 chance on any given night of being the victim of a violent crime.  That's skewed, of course, as your odds in the OV are about 1 in 10000 per night, etc.

Holy fuck?  I thought there were only a million people in metro Tucson.  How do you drive people that crazy?
