Gnashing My Teeth

The U.S Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights has forced a school in Michigan to tear down a brand-new set of bleachers for its boys’ varsity baseball team because the new seating is nicer than the girls’ softball bleachers.

The raised seating deck for the boys’ baseball team, which was paid for with money raised by parents, was put in place because fans who’d come to watch games at Plymouth High School in Canton, Mich., were having a hard time seeing the game through the chain-link fence WJBK-TV reported.
The parents installed the new bleachers themselves and even added a new scoreboard to the field, the station reported. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/03/28/why-a-middle-school-was-ordered-to-tear-down-its-brand-new-baseball-bleachers-will-likely-have-small-govt-advocates-shaking-their-headx/
Note: There had to be a do-gooder who brought this to the attention of the government. I say we find out then throw garbage in their car.
