Sure they will deal out detentions, in-school suspensions and a swift talking to, but that doesn't solve anything. These children hated me, they hated my religion. True hatred can't be held back by a detention slip. I feel that punishment will never be the answer to help protect people from the ignorance of others. I feel that the only way that we can protect ourselves in school is through education.
Education destroys ignorance.
We have to let the public know that we don't eat babies, or sacrifice cats while chanting over a flaming goat's head. We have to make others understand that we're people just like them. We go to school, have jobs, and eat pizza. We're not that different just because our faiths are different. We don't deserve less respect because we do things a little differently.
