Brickbat: Doesn't Anybody Knock?

Officials with the Catoosa County, Georgia, school system say they have installed some new technology that will keep students safer when the school year starts. It's a special detector called HALO that is going to be placed in restrooms and locker rooms. The technology can detect vaping fumes. A principal of one high school in the system said that vaping was the "No. 1 concern" parents have expressed to him. The system also detects loud noises, which officials said might indicate aggression or bullying. Officials said that because the system has no video capability and does not record audio it does not violate students' privacy.

Summer re-run.
It must be nice to live in a world where the “No. 1 concern” is vaping. That’s has to be right up there with forgetting to bring an umbrella on a day with a greater than 30% chance of rain. I wonder if that area of Georgia can issue some kind of umbrella reminder technology, too.

A principal said... Why would anyone believe xer?
It's weird that every school in the Catoosa County school system is performing in the upper 95th %-ile of schools nationwide and we haven't heard about it until they decided they were doing a good enough job teaching kids and needed to focus on vaping.
Per the BBC, there's a 10% chance that someone will be killed or injured by de-orbiting space junk within the next 10 years. All schools should be hardened against this possible tragedy.

Graduates of his own school, one wonders.
Not just vaping, SECRET vaping in the bathrooms and lockers.
The parents number one concern?
Not boys in the girl's spaces
Not keeping secrets from the parents
Not shootings
Not run of the mill violence and bullying
Not CRT
Not piss poor teaching
Not greenhouse gas spewing busses
But sneaking a quick puff.
Right. I bet that principal worked for one of the polling firms that predicted Queen Clinton had a lock in 2016.
"When I asked the local group of wine drink... I mean local book club, I assume some of them have kids, that's what they said they were most worried about."
The technology can detect vaping fumes [and] loud noises, which officials said might indicate
farting -- lactose intolerance having being cited as the, um, number two concern.
“Doesn't Anybody Knock?”
The Postmodern Investigators of Social Structures ( PISS) within the Ministry of Education declared that knocking is part of the patriarchy, and a hierarchy of white supremacy.
Its tradition among the, especially, bourgeois class coupled with its implied role in genuflection to, especially, white male homeowners deemed the practice an archaic “grand narrative” whose oppressive design needed to end.
So the answer to your question is no.
While I'm not fully aware of the rules, everybody knows that vaping's not allowed in school.
Sorry, but "Vapin' in the boys' room!" just doesn't have that same ring to it.
What will the children dream up to cause false alarms and drive administration nuts. Should be all kinds of aerosol products that could trigger the vape alarm. And as for loud noises, bet the school has not installed soft-close toilet seats yet...
Have at it kids
