english as a second language

You know, living in Southern Kalifornistan as I do, things like this should not surprise me any more:

Can anyone venture to tell me what, exactly, is wrong with this particular sign? And, no, there is nothing faded out or anything on the sign – that is the way it was originally printed. Oh, and the real cherry on top of this mess? This sign is posted right outside a school. Way to go, American public education system!

    I see “No Tobacco Use is Prohibited” to read that there is no use of tobacco that is prohibited by the administration.
    Must be a Phillip-Morris school.

    Of course, then the sign goes on to say that this is a ” … Tobacco … free zone”, thereby making the sign self-contradictory… just to confuse the situation even farther!
