Quote of the Day (protests)

Just a few quotes from students in regards to the protests just down the road from the school.
Student: “Mister, I’m so mad.”
Me: “Why?”
Student: “They closed the road just after we passed it [the roadblock].”
Me: “I’m glad you here though.”
Student: “Yeah, but if I had just taken a little bit longer to get ready, we wouldn’t have been able to get to school.”

Student [at 11:30]: “Oh!”
Me: “What’s going on?”
Student: “I just realized why there are so many people absent.”
Me: “You just realized it?”
Student: “Yeah, it’s because the road is closed for the protest, right?”

Student: “Why couldn’t they have cut the pole by my house?”

Student: “Mister, I heard that there are some teachers getting arrested for the protest [down the street].”
Me: “And?”
Student [grinning mischievously]: “Shouldn’t you be unified?”
