In the school district I attended, at the 9th grade level up teachers were required to have a Master's Degree. Several had their PhD (we called them Professor). Free speech was encouraged. But this was in the late 50's. I fear for our children.

Thank you also. My tender predatory carnosaur feelings are soothed at this point. Proved it by adding a point to your "over me head" statement. I was all like "Hey, what dis?"

How about one each more, from me. Now you are at 2. I've always enjoyed your work.

I have no kids in school, even the grandkids, already ruined, have graduated from college. Kids in school is not the issue, it's what they're teaching them, indoctrinating them, to believe. It any school that gets any kind of funding from the controllers that is the problem. But what do I care, I'm in the check out column in life.

The best thing you can do as an individual, is pull your kids from government schools and find another way. Home schooling is best. tutors can be excellent for the specialized subjects. A good private school f yu can afford it.

But a government school.....never.

Thanks. Up until now, me dino was reflecting on that saying, "No good deed goes unpunished."

Now you are back up to 1. Would do more if I could.

You had a 7 and with a click of my mouse I gave you an 8. Is that why I have a zero now?

When will it end?

Perhaps just way over my head, but what is a "#8 for a point"?

A Sandmann lawsuit could be appropriate for this, putting this poor kid in trauma.

Seattle-area. Why am I not surprised? Isn't this the same district that a teacher had 8 year old white boys stand up in class and apologize for being born a white male?

Your school unions at work...

And our teachers go on strike for the right to do this?

Like Jill Biden, these people have degrees in "education." They are neither smart enough nor schooled in and academic subject enough to be judging students. I was going on when our child was in school, now grown. I was in there constantly, having a fit, but found most prents objected to what was being put in kids' minds, thye feared to rock the boat. Teachers had already told them they knew best how to raise the kids, and parents should back away. Having read Mao's Little Red Book, I saw too many similarities and refused, so I was either put on boards where they tried to use the Delphi technique against us (I had already stuied it), or they had administrators sent to park in my house in threathening manners. Until I took my protetive dog and some pepper spary and headed for the car - gone in a flash! I tried to undo each days damage, but some of it stuck and I have a cross between Jane Fona and Ayn Rand, good head, stupid ideas with no common sense. They should be fired, but even when we went after one for doing Maslow group therapy on an entire fifth grade, conducted by someone with no credentials, with a boy even attempting suicide after a session, we could get her transferred to the high school, but NOT fired as she should have been. A mother a with a girl in a class a year behind our, walked into a group hypsnosis on 9 year olds, she called Jim Jordan. It is awful what they don't teach vs what they are not teaching - academics.

Democrats have relied on immigrant vote buying with social programs since the late 1800's. Back then they were buying the votes of European immigrants. Now they buy South American votes. Under Barack Obama they started branching out by importing immigrants and settling them to create voting blocs in various areas such as Minneapolis, Minnesota. But if those immigrants really value freedom, they recognize the Democratic ploys because that's what they used to live under.

Yesterday me dino picked this story up in my email and listened to that mealy mouth try to bullSchiff explain himself to that kid's mother.
Taking away two things.
1. Me dino has not even so much as thought of the term "mealy mouth " in years.
2. Once again another Gulcher has thought to post something here that I read the day before.
Gave NealS a well-deserved #8 for a point.

Only wish I could give this 100 thumbs up!!
It is abusive and wrong to treat anyone much less a child like this.

This is sad. This kid's family are obviously immigrants. They should be allowed to love the president if they want. This is a snapshot of what's really wrong with America. The elite lefties (or those who, like this guy, are their useful idiots) really think they are above everybody else.

That "Divisive" President...

You know, the one protecting ALL AMERICANS!

That one... Who the MEDIA LIES about.

Biden is DIVISIVE in how he talks about Trump and Trump Supporters? Oh, we can't go there.

And he LIES by telling the Fine People Hoax!
He based his ENTIRE CAMPAIGN on it...

But never you mind... The bad people are NOT the ones burning down your cities and destroying property... Their the EVIL RIGHT WINGERS who are CLEARLY a bigger threat than ISIS (especially after Trump destroyed ISIS, something they will NEVER forgive him for!)

This teacher should be fired immediately and barred from rehire. There is no excuse for this type of behavior - especially in public schools. This is nothing short of censorship of opinions which differ and what is most egregious is that this behavior is coming from a teacher.

Thanks, NealS.
Public schools have been turned into socialist propaganda mills and ignore freedom of speech for anyone who disagrees with their perverse (imo) left-biased views.
Fire all the teachers and start over. Perfect time to do it.
I bet there are a lot of people that big corporations have downsized who would make excellent teachers of the unbiased truth. Stuff the teachers unions. And force parents to take a bigger role in education of their own children.

Yes, "Fund", not "Fun", but either would work.
