Brickbat: This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

Officials at Salem
High School in Plymouth, Michigan, have agreed to take down
bleachers and a score board paid
for and built by parents for the school’s baseball team.
After an anonymous complaint, the U.S. Education Department’s
Office for Civil Rights found the school was in violation of
federal law because the baseball facilities are now superior to the
girl’s softball field. The school can’t afford to upgrade the
softball field, so it had to take down the amenities at the
baseball field.
