Obama’s Education Department did a lot of damage to K–12, and among the worst of it was a directive pressuring schools to have racially proportional punishment: If, e.g., blacks are 50 percent of the student body, no more than 50 percent of the punishments meted out should be to black students. Individual guilt had to be balanced against group statistics.
Among the critics of that rule was attorney Hans Bader, who had worked in the Education Department himself. His arguments against the rule were perfectly logical, but logic carries no weight with leftists these days. He was assailed by Juan Williams in a book Williams wrote.
Attorney Jerome Woehrle read Williams’s book and was appalled at what he said about Bader. So he wrote a piece for the site Liberty Unyielding about it.
