Places to Sign Recall Petitions - Tholen/Omeish/Cohen

I am appalled that the national right wing groups have pushed recalling school board members around the country as a way to keep up outrage and division to suit their political goals.

You are not very informed.

Objectively, no reasonable person could step back and say Elaine Tholen, Abrar Omeish, or Laura Jane Cohen are people who should be entrusted with the oversight of a school system with a $3B annual budget.

You guys can say what you want about Omeish, but I like her because she stands up for her beliefs and what she genuinely thinks is right. Fairfax has too many butt kissers. Omeish is an asset

But people did do that — by voting for them. If you don’t like them, don’t vote for them again. The recall process is not for kicking out duly elected people you disagree with and none of these board members were negligent or self-enriching.

If she did exactly the same things but was a white evangelical Christian, there’d be no petitions from these folks, that’s for sure.

It’s basically videos put out by a conservative organization. No one really takes them seriously apart from very right wingers and very left wingers looking for an outrage fix. Everyone else in the middle ignores it.

Thank you for finally admitting that OpenFCPS isn’t in the middle.

IT’S ONE POSTER! They aren’t in OpenFCPS leadership or a group moderator. People are free to post pretty much whatever in the group and there is (as far as I know) no post approval. Good lord. I hope you stretched before you made that leap. Actually I hope you didn’t stretch and you got a cramp.

Obviously thousands of people disagree with you.

Omeish needs to be replaced. Her behavior is such a bad example for kids.

Completely agree. I still can't get over that arrest tape.

Standing up for what you believe in is a bad example?

She retweeted a link Friday on twitter to a site that is anti-police and still has erroneous information on it about Ferguson. It was suggested as a source for teachers.

Resisting to give your ID at a valid traffic stop is a bad example
Lying to the media and public about the details is a bad example. (Claiming that she was targeted because of her hajib. It was dark when she ran the red light and her hajib was not visible.)
Throwing a tantrum and resisting arrest (because you threw a tantrum about showing your ID is a bad example).

Please share the link that’s so offensive. Some of y’all think “misspelled name on Starbucks cup” is violence against police.

Except that was before she was elected and people still voted her in. It’s like that Montana candidate, Gianforte, who assaulted a member of the press and then was elected Governor! Americans do not care.

Did we see the video before the election? I don't remember seeing it.
