Rep. Virginia Brown-Waite is a co-sponsor of this bill.
H.R. 3291, The Student and Teacher Safety Act of 2007
This is the same as the The Student and Teacher Safety Act of 2006.
In 2006 this bill PASSED the congress and died in the senate.
And now here it is yet AGAIN!
This MANDATES that schools have rules setup for TEACHERS to search students...up to, and INCLUDING STRIP SEARCHES!!!
We don't have enough teacher/student abuse, now they want to make it legal!!
Any politician voting for this will not only NOT get my vote, but I will spread the word far & wide as to what they are up to.
I will be screaming bloody murder if this passes and I won't stop till its revoked.

I can say that MRSA is rampet in Florida, it statrd with sores in my nose, then the sores would open up to cuts all the time I was steadily applying anti. bioti. salve, then a large boil would appear, then you could put in a sick call , 1st time culture from large boil came back a regular staph, was given Sulpher drug, well like clock work about 10 days after the 14 day of drugs wore off the noes thing starteed up again, in the 2 years I had 8 out breaks, institution would not address the issue of the nose thing, first 3 outbreaks Sulpher drug, then Cipro, then tetracycine , well some days there were as many as 10 guys on sick call for boils, there were a few camps in the panhandle of Fl. that it was so bad they was quarinteened, this wen on from 2005 -2007, right now I am looking for a self pay doctor in my area NE Florida, theres a drug called Vancomycin, they are saying it will get rid of it, the problem in Fl. DOC is that every time you want treatment theres a $ 4.00 charge, DOC files a claim on each case, it's a gold mine for them .

Hey Kay. I just read your article on toothpaste. Yikes! Chinese dog food and now this. Your writing style is quite pleasant, almost like a pro! (wink wink) You are a pro.
Oh yeah, I love Florida and don't get there often enough to see my MoM so I will be reading from time to time.
Hi! good stuff you have. Keep it up.
