What is “lunch shaming?” It happens when a child can’t pay a school lunch bill.
In Alabama, a child short on funds was stamped on the arm with “I Need Lunch Money.” In some schools, children are forced to clean cafeteria tables in front of their peers to pay the debt. Other schools require cafeteria workers to take a child’s hot food and throw it in the trash if he doesn’t have the money to pay for it.
In what its supporters say is the first such legislation in the country, New Mexico has outlawed shaming children whose parents are behind on school lunch payments.

Yeah, but Amerikan Truck Terrorists(tm) are just drunk rednecks or college kids, or people too old to still be operating a vehicle. All the carnage, but even more terror, since it is almost totally random because there is no ideology behind it.
