Nobody cares what you think?

You know what bothers me most about all this? About everything at Pioneer? It's that nobody cares. And it sickens me.

How many kids really made statements about the cameras? Yes, plenty, PLENTY, wrote letters to the editor, etc., about cameras. But how many actually came to the meetings? Not many. Now, some of this is a result of the administration's desire to not let you find out. But it's your duty as a student of Pioneer to become actively involved.

Out of all those kids, how many were seniors? There were only two underclassmen at the meetings. I honestly believe that Mr. White has been stopped from larger things because of this senior leadership. The problem is, we'll be gone in four months. Then who will take over?

Fight for your rights. I'm so sick of people saying "Oh, I don't really give a damn about the cameras, they won't affect me." Well, look at what's happening! Mr. White is losing it. He's trying to make rules that are more ridiculous by the day. You cannot let him do this; you can't be complacent and let him walk all over you. You can't let him do whatever he wants. You must make Mr. White answer to you, not the other way around. People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

So come to the meeting on Thursday. Discuss things on this blog, or with your friends; let other people know. The administration doesn't want you to have information; spread as much information as possible. The administration is doing things that are wrong, and you cannot let them do that. Become involved.

This is not a criticism. This is a challenge. I want Pioneer to care. I know that a good number of high school students are complete morons. Mr. White is counting on that. You must be vocal enough to cover for the rest of them, the ones who refuse to get involved. You must care, and you must make sure everyone knows you care, and you must make other people care.
