The school system is at fault here. This is what happens when every single school requires their kids be picked up at noon. And ATL city schools typically call off class when the wind blows the wrong way, so I have no idea why they decided school should be in session yesterday. Who are the dumbfricks running this operation?


I agree actually. I think if they'd just simply given the kids a snow day, it would have alleviated most of this. Would have been no school traffic and also would have caused lots of parents to stay home with their kids instead of going to work which would further relieve the congestion.

If you put your child on a school bus or dropped em off at the front door, your just as guilty as the dumb asses running the Atlanta BOE,imo. If you felt safe enough to send em to school, why wouldn't the school system feel the same?

Kids on buses all night is just stupid on several levels. First of all, in the metro area, there shouldn't be a single bus route over 5 miles. So we aren't talking about a school bus trying to get from Brookhaven to Woodstock, see?

What kind of fricking dead beat parents can't get walk from their house along the bus route until they find it, then get their kid and maybe the neighbor's kids and march their little asses back home in the snow?

What parents are sitting on their sofa, watching CNN, waiting for the government to swoop in with a magic pinwheel to deliver their cold hungry children back home?

Is there something I'm missing? Maybe if the parents are actually stuck in traffic, an hour away, and can't get to them, but that seems like it would be an isolated incident to me.
