  • why was there an anti-union ad before the video

  • why is there an ANTI-OBAMA ad in a TYT video?

  • Look she isn't even paying property taxes, in my opinion she should be arrested.

  • @ComputerHelp55 Yeah...her son might have paid property taxes one day. Good thing we crushed his chance of succeeding where his mother failed. It costs more in the long term to have uneducated people rolling around.

  • Cenk summed it up in one word: "revolting"

    the next layer of nausea comes when realizing nothing will happen.

  • It won't actually go anywhere.

  • Wealthy ConservONazi's are not Americans... they are invaders... and we need to get rid of them one way or another...

  • Actually, this is weird. The district you attend is generally the one you reside in. However, when someone is homeless, by definition they DON'T HAVE a residence, so how would you determine what district they even reside in?

  • This is stupid....where I'm from you get arrested for your children not being in school..... they need to be arrested for denying a child there education smdh # I'm discussed

  • pink floyd dosen't need no eduacation

  • Somebody likes Alice Cooper a lot lol

  • where i live you get arrested if you DON'T send your kid to school... but whatever

  • i know this is so off topic but does anyone notice every time he says arrest the subtitles show a restaurant...lol

  • this is clearly discrimination against this mother! it is sickening, and it is UNFAIR! i think that she should take this to the govenor of her state and to the president of the united states, if she has to! taxpayers money should not be wasted on locking her up! the truth is, the wan't to jail her so they can sell her child to the next bidder!

  • This is against the constitution!!!!!!!

  • The Problem with School Taxes is how the Administrators Blows it!!!!Secret Board meetings,secret Raises,and hiring too many People,to make all work Easy!!!!They know how to Cover their Asses,they have Covers to Waste your hard Earned Taxes!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • ...........this just made me so sick :'(

  • You deserve more views! Thumbs up!

  • Wait was it a public school? I didn't think you had to do anything to go to a public school.

  • Fuck. Everything. About this!

  • I just sighed away all hope for humanity I had left.

  • This is making me SICK I'm srry but HOW THE F**K can a child STEAL an EDUCATION????? EVERY CHILD HAS THE FRICKEN RIGHT to an education ARRRGHHHH This ruined my day SERIOUSLY @BrownieOverdose ure right NO amount of Ice cream can candy coat this Bull crap!

  • I'm Glad I live In Canada Where The flu or a broken bone doesn't Bankrupt me, My children will get a great education, and the people in front of me sometimes pay for my Coffee and donuts in the Tim Horton's Drive thru lol Yup Gotta Love Canadians! :D

  • @dims030 "Paying it forward," or covering someone's coffee in line at Scooters (or wherever) is actually common practice here in America as well. I know a lot of very nice Canadian folks, just as I know a lot of great Americans. Our problem is not any individual or group of individuals, but the people who think they can impose their will upon the rest of us. That is the wrong of a government born out of enterprise.

  • @Ogawa47 well Free Coffee aside You Have to admit the U.S has issues...when money and morality clash Money usually wins; sad way of thinking IMHO. My commented was intended to highlight The biggest american faults ( lack of healthcare( for those who can't afford it), lack of Quality education for ALL children regardless of school district, and plain old fashioned "niceness" (lol) I don't doubt that there are Americans who are good people it's the general "me" attitude of the u.s I dislike

  • @dims030 I understand your frustrations. i live here and have to deal with it. I was only pointing out that Canada is not the only place where a complete stranger may buy you a cup of coffee expecting no reward. I did fail to mention, however, that America has thousands of great schools. I never denied that the USA has its hefty share of issues. I was merely pointing out that you were making a generalization about Canada while falsely implying that it is contrary to American nature.

  • @Ogawa47 Firstly the fact that America has great schools doesn't mean all Americans have access to a great education, in fact that's what this video is about! My comment pointed out lack of quality education for ALL children not that america is lacking in good education in general and IMO general politeness is contrary to american nature and I make that statement out of my own experiences that I had while in that country ;

  • Respond to this video... and in comparison to Canada I CAN generalize because I'm speaking out of overall experience. back to my first comment which said "where people SOMETIMES" pay for my coffee not ALWAYS! I believe that in the U.S that "sometimes" becomes an "almost never" which still doesn't mean that it will never happen...

  • The main reason I even brought the timmy's thing up was to Illustrate the fact that the issue in this video is borne out of people using two hands to shove the person in front of them to get ahead and forgetting that sometimes the people behind could use one of those hands too

  • wth??? why are there rich districts and poor districts??? why aren't all public schools equal in the U.S? In Canada U can send your child to ANY public school even if You don't live in the school's district as along as there is space for your child. HECK if you want to send your kid to PRIVATE school and U can't afford it the Gov't wil Chip in with that too!! wow the RICHEST country in the world Is very poor in Morality

  • I am astounded, I want to punch the people who will put her in jail and the rich elite that chucked a wobbly at her son being in their children's school. She was enterprising, if I was rich and had a house in the area, she could come stay so I could piss everyone off and her son could get what he deserved.

  • I hereby revoke any patriotism or pride in the fact that I am an American.

    Any ladies in Canada wanna help a guy get a citizenship?

  • @BrownieOverdose ice cream can

  • For more knowledge about the Unesco's educational plan for the U.S research Charlotte Iserbyt.

    I wouldn't send my child to public or private school. Home education is by far the best choice......

  • I feel like throwing up.

  • how can this be real... seriously, some rapists and murders sometimes get less than 20 years...

  • Hates on rich people. Then shows how rich they are and promotes their friend's business. Douchebags.

  • Send your kid to school to give him a better chance at a batter future? FUCK YOU HERE'S JAIL

  • @BrownieOverdose LOL I was serious when I read the first part, but then I laughed when you mentioned ice cream.

  • link to the article please

  • This needs a riot

  • IT COSTS MORE MONEY TO KEEP THAT WOMAN INCARCERATED THAN IT WOULD TAKE TO JUST GET THE KID FUCKING EDUCATED!!

    Fuck the world, man. This shit is just too common. I have a real problem wwith what's being rewarded and what's being punished.

  • Blank fuckin stare... This shit is fuckin ridiculous. I never thought that I would see the day when somebody gets arrested for trying to make things better for their kid...

    Is this country really that dam selfish??

  • Every kid DESERVES an education.

  • Everyone should watch "V for Vendetta" and then take a look at the US.

  • Welcome to America, land of the greedy and fucking retarded.

  • EVERY CHILD DESERVES GOOD FOOD, 3 MEALS A DAY, A WARM HOME, AND A GOOD EDUCATION! WHAT THE HELL...RICH GREEDY ASSHOLES!! THIS WOMAN ONLY WANTS THE BEST FOR SON! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE PEOPLE WHO RUN THISE COUNTRY? IT'S MOMENTS LIKE THIS I THINK ABOUT BECOMING A COMMUNIST

  • THATS SO FUCKED UP!!

  • Hey, guys, let's not just not let the kid go to school, let's fucking arrest the mom!

  • what kinds of sick shit is that?! ... omg is not just about her... but her son too...jesus... god knows what will he become now.

  • On the bright side, she gets 3 meals a day, a roof over her head, heating, running clean water, a safe place to sleep and many more benefits.

    This is going to cost those rich bastards more then it would to keep the kid in school.

    Arresting her is 100% wrong.

  • Rich people pay more taxes than poor people, hence the rich people have the right to send their children to schools that spend more per student. If all people pay such few taxes went to upper-class schools, the school system would not be able to provide such a high quality of education.

  • @RaoPaoer So because a kid is lucky enough to be born to wealthy parents, he gets a better education? The kid who just happened to be unfortunate enough to be born into a poor family doesn't deserve a good education? How does anyone expect poor families to stop being poor if they keep getting shit education, in turn getting shit jobs, making shit money, so on and so on.

  • @RaoPaoer The affluent has the choice to send their child to a private school whereas the poor and middle class is limited to public school. Public schools are for the equality society as whole while private schools cater to specific area of are society.

    She has right to send her child to a public school whether it is a poor area or a rich.

  • I don't want to live in this country anymore -_-

  • "The sense of entitlement the wealthy have in this country really just disgusts me."

    Thank you Ms. Kasparian for putting this message into the discourse. As someone who is struggling to keep his only valuable personal possession from being repossessed to pay student loan debts, and who get accused of having a sense of entitlement because I want access to health care for the quite potentially lethal condition from which I am suffering, I really cannot thank you enough. I wish I could hug you.

  • wtf man.

  • so where the hell was the son staying during this? why not with a friend? a father? if she wanted the best for her son she would have GIVEN HIM UP for adoption or something. instead of dragging him around living in a car or under a bridge

  • @James61354 Don't make assumptions when you do not know the conditions of her homelessness. You are being as critical and heartless as the people who prosecuted her.

  • Is there a petition for this? Please link if there is. This is a marvelous fucking display of horrible racism and it's not fair or right! She shouldn't be going to jail.

  • @JustThatGirI its not racist. its def wrong for a million other reasons

  • fuck.

  • A few months of public school isnt worth 15 thousand dollars. Shit....even twelve years of public school isnt worth 15 thousand dollars. This school is overvaluing the bullshit its peddling.

  • wtf i don't understand the 20 years and thousands of dollars in fine

  • WOW I'm white and all I can say is Black people CANT WIN FOR SHIT!

  • I just threw up a little in my throat.

    Everyday I watch this nation slip more and more towards a plutocracy/oligarchy. WTF!!!

    So now the poor aren't able to get a good PUBLIC education?!?!

    This is outrageous!

  • Wow... This is sickening.

  • WHY NO MORE GOOD VOLUNTEER IN THE GOVERNMENT TO GIVE FREE SCHOOL FOR THE HOMELESS.THATS Y THEY ARE HOMELESS IT MEANS NO MORE MONEY.Y THE WEALTHY UNITED STATES CANNOT PROVIDE HELP FOR THE POOR? BUT THEY CAN DONATE BILLION DOLLARS TO THE OTHER COUNTRY? WHERE IS THEY'RE HEART?

  • Look, you have to know your place in society. She didnt.

  • I would hate to see what would have happened to her if she had a son to enroll on college...

  • @MyJunior1975 cant the son do it himself?

  • First, the public education is screwed up and outdated anyway. Two, there's no reason that they should have done all this. Pretty damn sick and lame. However, it's only more reason to move forward to make a difference. It won't be through the system, but through people that come together to spread a form of education that's up to date with the times. Also programs that help teach that kind of education.

  • She was only doing what it is required by law as her son must be in school regardless of what public school.

  • Yes, But I bet the same school would be be champing at the bit to accept migrant worker children and children of illegal aliens...or maybe not.

  • Only in the USA

  • How else is the country going to get more soldiers?

  • This is what happens when a country has "poor" schools and "wealthy" schools. Where I live, you can get into the best universities even if you went to the schools in poorer areas. You do well in school, you get it, end of. Any other system is inferior.

    Equal funding produces mostly equal results for most schools, which gives room for individuals to excel , but creates a bottom line. Sure we have private schools but the education isn't any better, and isn't more likely to get you anywhere.

  • @GayByProxy We have to have the school system the way it is, otherwise rich schools would be overun by the negro.

  • @calimar28 Heaven forbid here be an educated black man, I mean what if one of them would up in charge? Doomsday, for sure.

  • @GayByProxy I know. Frankly Im just trolling on this thread, I have no trouble about her putting her kid in a white school. Mabye he can learn something.

  • the guy is an idiot

    

  • this is unbelieveable , poeple who murder people get less time . why would you even stoop so low , & give her 2O years , becus she wants to provide a better life for her son . 2O years ?! come on now , give her at least 2 days , no , dont give her nothingg . she loves her child & wants him to have a better life . dont be heartless , shes home less . ! i swear , this is sickeningg ! why ?!

  • @BOOSiEBxtch I completely agree with this. I'm still shocked at the 20 years for something so petty. Instead they should have been trying to help her and her son to stay in the school. Work something out, not throw her in jail. It's not lyk she damaged the school or tried to kill someone, but 20 years?? Where they do that at?? This is so petty.

  • This is nauseatingly disgusting

  • I really can'

    t believe this. Not only do we have to pay our tax money for a PRIVATE prision system that does NOT rehabilitate and locks up all our kids for silly drug charges, our tax dollars support this crap?! SICKKK!

  • Equal opportunity in the US is a joke, despite of what people have been taught.

  • well it is obvious that african americans being educated poses a real threat to the status quo! clearly women who step out of line must be punished! how much is it going to take for us to say ENOUGH! what's the point of talking about freedom, democracy, and values when we have none? is the US really so great?? am i the only one thinking about defecting?

  • America "The best country in the world". Hahahaha

    Why isn't BUSH IN HAGUE!?!? He's a war criminal!

  • Hey no way! Obama promised you the change!

    The American dream is enslaved, it's being sold out to the banking elite and if you don't say "Thank you sir", you're going to get into prison.

    If Obama wins in 2012, there will be a mass street riot in 2013, food prices, the police nazi state, unemployment, worthless dollar and so on.

    Ron Paul 2012.

  • @HolliValsMusic Go back and objectively look at the voting record of the Republicans vs Democrats.

  • @ReasonAndWisdom It's just one party with two faces.

  • I don't get it... Is there a law preventing homeless people or poor people from attending public schools?

  • why is it a public school if it is not open to the public ?

  • wow wtf is wrong with the world..

  • @jtreehugger what is wrong with AMERICA, not the world. This happened in AMERICA, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Don't say "The world". IF this happened in any other country on this Globe, Americans would be the first ones to judge, point fingers and pepper it with some more "oh how awful that country is" crap. But when it happens in AMERICA, then it's like "What's wrong with the WORLD". AMERICANS, get over yourselves and realize that YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!

  • @MariRariGari calm yourself. The "world" is just a figure of speech, thanks to popular usage. To add, America is not perfect. Neither is any other country on the planet. For the record, the WORLD does suck. All you can do is do your best. Coming back to the main point of this thread, the rich get richer and the poor get put in jail. Its only going to change when the human population on this PLANET encounters a sharp decline due to world wide catastrophe. Have a nice day.

  • It's time for war. It's time for revolution. And you myopic fuckers can stop missing the point and blaming this on political parties. Demican, Republicrat, this whole fucking country needs to be burned to the ground.

  • @AMdobMA Trust me...America and the world will burn.

  • Really! 20 years for enrolling her son to get an education in America. The place called the United States is turning into a snake pit.

  • @conflatedsensations Sorry about that I meant has turned into a Snake pit.

  • When they stand before God, they will have to answer for that. People think they will get away with injustice in this world, but one day, they will have to face true justice, the Justice of God.

  • @wirungari What justice? He murdered babies and ordered rapes. Last person I'd want to be handing out justice (just happy he's an evil fairy tale).

  • 20 years? She might as well murder someone.

  • Illegals that are being sent back across the border get better treatment-- I think this judge that passed such a sentence needs to be exposed--- sounds very vicious to me.

  • Its the same as for illegal aliens in one respect- You are supposed to have a residence that is within the boundary of the school district--- you don't get to just pick a school and give false address so you can enroll a child there. It should be a misdemeanor in my opinion -- You don't make an example of a poor person by fining them a huge debt the won't be able to pay. But, she broke the law- it's too bad she is homeless but putting her in jail is ludicrous

  • No offense Ana, but your very sexy when your politically motivated. I mean it.

  • This is absurd and sad. Not only will her son not get the education he deserves, but he'll be without a mother for 20 years? Wow.....I'm at a loss of words here.

    I pray that she doesn't stay in jail and that both her and her son get the life they deserve.

  • 20 years? What is this really going to solve? Yes some punishment could be given, but this certainly does not fit the crime.

  • @coolmamac ANY punishment is too much! You think she deserves to be punished? I hope you're a christian because if you aren't I expect you to be more moral.

  • You'd get less time if you abused and raped your kid!! 20 years?! for what?! trying to give her child a better life? trying to give him an education? Their basically saying "You're poor, your child is poor, he can't come here with our rich kids." Uh, WHAT THE HECK?!

  • The principals name was Salathar Slytherin

  • Pathetic

  • UNBELIEVABLE, 20 YEARS. O.K. I am aware about the district enrolling policies and the school TAXES that the district residents have to fork out------ but 20 years!!! I give her a lot of credit for trying to better her son's education. I know a few people who did this and all they got was a 30 day notice to remove their child from that school. WOW, the police must have mistaken her for Richard Ramirez.

  • Republican madness has totally taken over. Conservatives sicken we humans.

  • I'm surprised nobody called her a nigger... about to read the comments.

    I'm sure someone down the line called her a nigger.

  • @AgrivatedKillah

    There's always one.

  • use tax dollars to pay for a kids education: bad

    use tax dollars to put a woman in jail for 20 years: good

    wow people are stupid.

  • @sofaking1111

    Yep - what does it cost to keep one person in jail now? It's something like $35000 to 40000 per year, I think, which has got to be more than the cost of sending a kid to school. Apart from anything else there's a benefit to society if the kid is in school, and a benefit to the child of having a mother who isn't incarcerated, as opposed to the zero benefit of the kid being uneducated and the mother being in prison.

  • @sofaking1111 Keeping her in jail for one year would cover that kids highschool education.

  • America, the country of equal opportunities...

  • America, what an unjust place.

  • 20 years, really? Really, America? How could you let your justice system get this fucked up?

  • I do not get why schools get differing amounts of money. All schools should be getting the same amount of money and should have a high standard of education. We give the rich kids everything and nothing to the poor kids? Why are we punishing the kids for their parents poverty? Why not give them a good education so they can have a good job and perhaps stay out of jail? The rich keep pushing the poor down in America.

  • i really believe that once again the tyt just goes for the sensation, homeless, really???, sleeping on the street, there has to be more

  • Check on google images the corruption index the states' rating is bullcrap it should've been lower if you're denying people a descent education and future

  • She went to a poor Norwalk school rather than an extremely poor Bridgeport school. Nothing to do with rich people here.

    Stop misinforming the public.

  • i think it is time for revolution. i have this feeling of piking up torches and pickforks and run in to the washintong and burn all the companys and politicans. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKKK­KKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY!!!???????????

  • what the fuck is wrong with the states. jesus im glad i dont live there

  • This is truly unconstitutional.

  • *Puts on tea party-goggles* What? She's homeless! They're just trying to give her food & shelter for the next 20 years. DAMN LIBRUL GOVT!!!!

  • only in america. isn't out country great? yeah right

  • Comment removed

  • I dont even understand what illegal about this!?!?! what the fuck is wrong with america!!!!?!?!?!?!?!

  • almost every TYT video I have the same feeling....america is screwed!!!!!111

  • What the heck was this? This does not happen in Australia. You're more likely to face the problems at the start here. Even enrolling in a public high school in average neighbourhoods can be difficult as there are more applicants than places in the schools with a better reputation. I wanted to go just out of my zone bc of the subjects offered. It was pretty difficult but we did it. Nobody would be arrested over this if they did fake something though. Asked to leave at worst.

  • I thought America was the land of the free?

  • Yep the United States is going to Hell. This whole situation with this woman is the perfect example that the USA is becoming a 3rd world country

  • the fact that they give her 20 years for larceny is just ridiculous, it makes me sick to my stomach to think that rich people could do this to a homeless woman.

  • This is one exception story. But don't take a dig at all 'rich' people and America in general.

  • @ManUtdiszbest This story has nothing to do with rich people anyway. Rich people didn't kick her son out because she was poor. They kicked her son out because they mother didn't live in that schools district. Since she's homeless she should have enrolled her son in her a school in her last place of residency,

  • @MontrealAtheist @slr2111 @reharlan You're rats .. I spit on your fat Mamas

  • Come to France Education is free and health care too..

  • Is it not time to burn down the homes of all these evil rich stealing fuckers? Yes? No? We don't need no water, let the motherfuckers burn?

  • One word: Capitalism.

  • @MrDustock GDP is used to measure our standard of living. Countries that have a tendency to invest more into education have a better system than what we do. The United States only invests roughly 5.7% of its overall GDP. That comes out to about 2% of our Federal budget according to UNESCO, and you are trying to argue that we spend to much? If you make education a prioritized issue, you will receive prioritized results. For proof of this you just have to look at our defenses which have priority.

  • "Where did you want her to enrol her son?"

    Hmmmm, how about in their ancestral homeland in sub-Saharan Africa???

    What business do homeless negroes have in a wealthy white neighbourhood anyway other than to create trouble?

  • @MontrealAtheist Actually no, because she's homeless what she should have done was enroll her son in a school in the district of her last place of residency. The school she tried to enroll her son in was not in that district. Her son could go there if the mother would be able to pay a tuition to the school because she wouldn't have helped it with her taxes.

  • @lilnicky492 fail on you. Homeless poor people should be charged $0 for school or the world's homeless should have the legal right to burn rich greedy fuckers at the stake.

  • @MontrealAtheist, I hope you fuck a tree dumb racist bastard.

  • People who beat & molest their children get less time than that. But no, a woman who obviously cares about her son & wants a better life for him is thrown in jail for 20 years because she DARED to enroll him in a wealthy school. I wonder if this would have been a problem had she enrolled him in a poor school;

  • It's clear that the legal system in this area is trying to send a strong message: If you are poor and not living in this district, DO NOT enroll your child in our wealthy, high achieving schools. Stay where you are--which is the poor, violent schools where the students and parentsvdon't try to make a culture of learning. That's what you must be subjected to, it's what you deserve. Why else would you threaten to put her in jail for 20 years?! I mean, rapists serve less time.

  • @seiferganon I completely agree! The part about rapists serving less time occurred to me as soon as they mentioned how much jail time she was facing. I fail to understand how someone who raped another person could serve less time than a person who simply enrolled her son in a district she didn't live in - it's terrible!

  • 2:52 over and over again =ana in your bed

  • ana plse wear tight clothes like that more often

    

  • America has FAILED you.

  • This is absolutely despicable. A woman is giving her heart and soul to her kin in order for him to improve his life, and she gets chastised for it.

    This cements the idea how much power and manipulation the wealthy have here!

    They reap the rewards, the rest of us suffer.

    What happened to America being the "land of opportunity"? Now it's the "land of snot-nosed, uppity, opulent curmudgeons dictating the less fortunate"!

  • ohhhh America what will you do next.

  • Get a job BIATCH!

  • Comment removed

  • @slr2111 Well technically that's just you ASSUMING that the 'wealthy school' must be majority whites... no? (It may be, I dunno) Just saying ^_^

  • Comment removed

  • @slr2111 Wrong. I bet you're wrong most of the time.

  • Comment removed

  • @slr2111 You mean the post where you displayed your unwavering ignorance and arrogance by saying the school must have lots of minorities? Guy, if you want to have a better understanding of this world and the creatures that inhabit it, I would recommend you not assume or prejudge anything before forming an opinion. This is a basic step to freeing your mind.
