Hmmmm.  Maybe the problems with schools is not that they're bad but that the students are like, you know, uhm...young.  Like their brains haven't fully developed you know.  And like, you know their sense of humor, especially males of the late adolescent stage, is like totally inappropriate.  Like duh!  And apparently the problem is not confined to the US.
 
Take England.  Who would have access to the best schools?  Why the young princes, the sons of the late, iconic Princess Diana and ruler in waiting, Prince Charles.  Apparently, Prince Harry, the youngest son of this tragically mismatched couple, slept through his Modern British History class.  All of them.  How else to explain arriving at a costume party dressed as a Nazi (they should all die and rot in hell forever) flashing a large swastika armband?
 
Why, he probably doesn't even know that if it weren't for the US he'd be speaking German today. And wouldn't be a prince. Has he ever heard of World War ll?  Does he know when it was?  What happened?  Maybe his grandfather, Prince Phillip, neglected to educate him on the period he lived through. 
 
Ah youth.  Definitely wasted on the young.
