[0349] The Human Rights Situation In The U.S.
└ posted on Thursday, 9 February 2012, by Novil
- P.E. teacher: I asked some of the boys to come over. Maybe this will finally motivate you girls to put some effort into your performance.
- Theo: That doesn’t look very slick, Sandra.
- Newsreader: The human rights situation in the U.S. has worsened again. On top of police brutality and inhumane prison conditions, Amnesty International is now reporting cases of systematic torture of middle school girls during physical education.

Forget anything any other dictator has done, Kim Jong-un’s victory in what was surely a top-notch food buffet is the most fearsome and terrifying news to ever hit the world! Just think of it. He must have gained the leadership of all other confections for his bloody triumph in the War Against Pie. Soon, his army of baked confections will begin their assault on the world. Nobody will be safe. All will be forced to conform. And as we are taken over by North Korea’s surprise weapon, we will always remember… we saw the start of his takeover here first.
The yellow stripes on her pants are missing in the first panel.
lol poor sandra X3
Now that’s just mean.
Should have the whole class there to make fun of her. Lest that’s how it was done when I went to school.
That gym teacher is messed up! First she assigns horizontal bar exercises, then a pool of lava, and now she’s bringing boys over to watch Sandra! What next!
Dang. Screw math, if Sandra can constantly cause and resolve legal controversy like she does (or did a bit more pre-2010), she could be the world dictator! Make Northia a career!
I withhold judgement until I see how the boys actually do. Of course the teacher might have selected only boys that are known to be good at this exercise.
you forgot to place “eurpean uninon puts greece on Ebay”
Wait…so this is outside of school? Or is her gym class an all-girls class? If that isn’t the case, then there should have been boys there to watch in the first place, so the teacher wouldn’t have to “invite” them to come and watch.
Well, if I had to pick out the tinpot dictator most likely to win a pie-eating contest, it would be Kim Jong-Un
I would like to re-examine the “fight” option in light of this new development. Sandra now has two viable targets, and an embarrassment-fueled adrenaline surge on the way. Sooo… I’d say she ought to grab blondie, hit four-eyes over the head with him, and then throw him at the P.E. teacher. Such actions are allowed under the Geneva Convention, the Hague Treaty and the Bill of Rights, and have been given as traditional rights and liberties since classical times, having been mentioned in the Magna Carta, the Twelve Tables of Ancient Rome, and the axones of Solon and Draco in Ancient Greece. Sic semper tyranis, atque irrisores!

Well indeed they are, as they should be. The panel is portraying a lot of movement as she is wobbling around with her legs as you often see children do when they try this exercise. And where a lot of movement is portrayed in drawings details tend to be taken out to put an emphasis on the movement.
@ illeatyourself:
At least in Germany it is normal to split the classes by gender for physical education (Sportunterrricht) with the beginning of class 7 (or so). Both have Sportunterricht at the same time, but at differend places (and be it just a curtain that splits the sport-hall into 2 pices) with differend teachers.
Gentlemen, fetch the sedated cupcakes.
There is work to be done.
(+5 cookies if you get the reference)
LOL XD good job sandra now she won’t do that again any time soon!!!
Lol, that would be very , motivating/humiliating, and humiliation IS a form of torture, just ask some of the lovely people at guantamino bay lol. But ver
PE… It turns out I still gave three years left of it… I thought it would end in highschool 🙁 yeah but I know the feeling, Sandra our gym teacher used these same horrible tactics
owwww poor Sandra…anyone else think that if someone make fun of Sandra, Cloud will kick his ass?
Wait, Amnesty International is only NOW speaking out against the inhuman cruelty that is Middle School?
I thought he ate the country.
I realize that “Snigger” is to laugh at someone, but it’s far too close to a different word for me to use it . . . I would have gone with “Snicker” XD (Not the same, but eh)
Sandra clearly isn’t eating enough bacon. 13 year old Abbey Watson certainly wouldn’t be intimidated by a pair of measly old bars …
The girls are worse than the guys to make fun of people in my experience. Honestly, if you’re that bad and they haven’t gone yet, they will laugh at you. Girls come up with the worst snide comments, especially when they know they’re right.
@ illeatyourself:
when i was in junior high (middle school, as it is today) and high school, boys and girls had separate gyms as well as locker rooms. of course, that’s here in california. i certainly cannot speak for the rest of the country, but it appeared that separate facilities was the norm.
climbing over a bar is kinda hard
@ ME:
ah good catch. i didn’t even notice it untill the last second.
I remember in high school how bad i was at jump rope i was ultra terrible every one laughed, i feel sorry for Sandra knowing what it feels like.
…. somebody get me a guard’s baton, i’m gonna beat some sense in to them so Sandra won’t have to.
Funny thing, but being not familiar with this Kim Jong-un AND not native with English, I initially read it as “un-wins”. What this might mean I leave at your imagination.
@ DaB.:
It is done in my country too… on the other hand it is especialy boring since dooing any team sport that way is nearly impossible.And so we eventualy come back together anyway.
But well I used to be WMD in my physical education classes. When we were flaing football (european) I once as goalkeeper managed to do a kick to ball with both legs just next to a classmate´s head. Just have no idea how I managed to get that high in the air.
but well Amnesty international is useless drain on resources anyway. I do not think anyone can take that stupidity seriously.
@ ME:
That’s due to motion being suggested in the frame, the colors blur out and you don’t see them. Anime and cartoons do it as well, but you don’t really notice the missing detail since they are actually moving.
ok…now thibk about it…It could get worse….oh…wait…
OK, here is a S.Korean joke
the Pie Kim Jong-Un ate is a chocolate-Pie.
I’m sure Non-Korean may not understand
@ ME: No they aren’t! She’s simply flailing her legs that fast!
@ illeatyourself:
Here in Estonia, we have seperate gym classes for boys and girls, too.
this is unforgivable! look for the next weeks headlines! “Wolves Run wild in Local Middle school. PE teachers no where to be found!”
Wolf in Bears Clothing (its the last thing they’d suspect)
@ Deo:
But who would buy it?
Get your laughs in now, boys! This exercise is about upper body strength, but they might not all be.
Let’s see those lads do some leg lifts!
And then she reported the teacher to the principal for psycholocical assault and the woman was fired.
Seriously, she totally can. I mean I knew teachers like this, and they were fired, because you cannot do this anymore. Unless you have a perfect storm of bullcrap where the principal, parents and cops all agree with ehr and just tell you to “man up”, then you’re good.
Purposefully making someone the laughing stock of the class is, you know, illegal.
Now…that’s evil….
@ illeatyourself:
As this is supposed to be in America that is exactly how gym classes are taught. And when I was in school there were even different sports and standards. In fact most of the time even getting a glimpse of the girls was rare. They had a partition that would be pulled across the gym to separate the boys and girls sides.
@ Audioworm:
Cupcakes by anychance my good sir?
Good day.:moustache:
@ Wilhelm II, German Emperor:
Correct! *Gives 5 cookies*
And why is Cloud in shining armor not charging in to save Sandra from this torture?
In my middle school, at least we are separated for the fitness and endurance exams (like the bar) but are together for the rest of the units such as sports and such@ illeatyourself:
@ Lainesius:
Cuz he’s hiding and about to spring into action. Duh.
I wish we had bars at my school
u need to put sandra and woo in more comics together… hint… the name of the comic is “Sandra and Woo”… sigh
😀 It’d be HILARIOUS if Cloud got called to the horizontal bar excersize and was even worse than Sandra XD
