In related news, the Post opined in favor of hyenas and other scavengers saying that lions and tigers are getting too much food without any accountability and scavengers are entitled to their share. However, the Post also came out against game preserves saying that they are “costly entitlements” and endagered species have come to rely too heavily on the government for protection.

New York State has a law against tampering with Regents exams, though you would n ever know it. I pasted the text below. Someday the story will be told in all its corruption about how the Regents, NYSED, NYC’s teachers, APs, Principals, Superintendents, Chancellors, and UFT Presidents did NOTHING to detect or punish Regents cheating. Anybody disagree?
N.Y. EDN. LAW § 225 : NY Code – Section 225: Unlawful acts in respect to examinations and records
A person who shall:
9-a. Knowingly and willfully make an unauthorized and false
alteration or representation of any grade, credit, honor, award or
standing in the permanent record or transcript of any student with
respect to a school or college under the supervision of the regents, the
commissioner, or the university of the state of New York.
