[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Younkin's tip line is about accountability - we the parents are holding the teachers, school board, and superintendent accountable. No wonder this scares the left.[/quote] Accountable for what? [/quote] It's a defense mechanism by those with hurt egos who now feel the need to project their feelings of powerlessness onto teachers. The tip line is a consolation prize.[/quote] Oh so is this different that AG garland's federal bureau of incompetence tagging parents who speak out against school boards? essentially putting a tipper in the fbi system that these parents are troublemakers? <ok go ahead and tell me it is different, in your detached-from-reality logic...I cant wait> [/quote] Are you being serious? One is a tip line to report CRT in the classroom and the other is a tip line to report threats of violence against public servants. Regardless of politics those are serving two very different purposes.[/quote] You fell right into my trap - the "tip line" for reporting threats is 911. That is how you report threats. Your local police will answer. The Federal Bureau of Incompetence has no business being involved in local disputes. But let's play this out - do you believe that only threats were reported to Merrick and his Merry Band of Morons? Or do you think that local dems reported parents who do not subscribe to the whims of the teachers, school board, and superintendent? And let's back up even further - why did the FBI start "tagging these parents in the system" (FBI's words, not mine)? They did so because the School bored association, which was too bored with keeping parents in the corner, decided to request the FBI monitor parents who speak out. So Yes, Im being very serious - I've been very serious for over two years now. Hopefully you'll get there someday. *footnote: in case you do not understand what the FBI means when they tag parents in the system - it means you are now part of FBI as disagreeing with the Government. For parents who make threats, the FBI should refer this to the local police and the police should prosecute. For all others, well....remember McCarthyism? Remember the Civil Rights Movement? Same same same. [/quote] Using the same logic, Youngkin's tip line is achieving the same goal of curating a list of public servants whose teaching materials are at odds with the state government's idea of what should and shouldn't be in public schools. Anyway, one of the intents and purposes of the FBI is to be in the business of domestic counter-terrorism, and threats of violence to intimidate public servants indeed falls into the category of threatening acts of terrorism. It still applies even to local county governments. Is there potential for baseless reports? Sure, but I trust the FBI would toss those out and not "tag" someone if it isn't warranted. I don't subscribe to a conspiracy theory that the FBI is keeping a list of outspoken parents if they aren't valid and real violent threats.[/quote] You still don't get it. Youngkin is state, FBI and DoJ are Federal - keep the Feds out of our schools. Period. [/quote]
