geeze Loco you don't how many horror stories I have heard about nuns beating the crap out of someone. I can't stand looking at any nuns to this day. Grade 3 sister Mary William's did not like me for some reason, she slapped the shit out of so much one day I took off from school and went home. I thought I was going to get in trouble but when my Sister 5 years older than me found me at home she told me I was in no trouble.My parents pulled me out of that school and put me in a regular elementary school. I think this experience made me meaner because when I got a older I did not take shit from anyone. My Dad told me a story of what happened to my Uncle Morris, 14 kids they all went to a Catholic school, the boys went to an all boys where the teachers were brothers, a kind of poor mans priest. This one brother beat my Uncle Morris hands so bad he told my Uncle to not say anything. My Grandpa was a cop in Montreal, they were sitting at the dinner table and Uncle Morris kept his hands under the table. Grandpa repeatedly asked him to show his hands and when he finally did my Grandpa got so mad he went to the school to arrest this brother. The school head man talked to my Grandpa and pleaded with him not to arrest this POS brother and told him this would never happen again. My Dad and Uncles were never bothered by any brothers after that. One more story, my parents wanted my sister to leave the Catholic girls school but she wanted to stay with her friends. This nun didn't like her for some reason and was giving her failing marks on test papers. My sisters best friend was an A student so the next test she copied her friends paper word for word. Her friend got a pass my sister got a fail. She confronted the nun and told her what she thought of her. My Sister went to our local high school after that. We never again went to the Church affiliated with those two schools. Not too long ago I thought I would look up where sister Mary Williams was buried so I could piss on her grave but I couldn't find its location. :)
