[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually living under Democrats policy is very different than just voting for Democrats, putting up your "all are welcome" yard signs, but then never actually having those policies impact your life.

Now that open borders are tanking our schools AND some are being forced to actually send their kids to those tanked schools, it's a horse of a different color. I say bring on the vouchers if nothing is going to be done to stop the flow. And I say this as someone who has always supported public schools over private.[/quote]

This!  I have been amused by reactions from those in my neighborhood who previously enjoyed virtue signaling the "love is love, no person is illegal, science is real" yard signs, but who now sing a different tune upon hearing their child may have to go to a school with a high ESOL population.  There's a huge gap between what they are willing to say and what they are willing to do.  I think this represents much of the left leaning Fairfax UMC:  I want others to be helped, so long as it doesn't impact me or my loved ones.[/quote]

Eh, whatever.

Be amused, but the pushback comes from having the cost fall directly on particular kids.  I still don’t principally object to well-funded schools, just to kids being used as resources for equitable gains.

And it isn’t like the book banning crowd has provided a compelling alternative.

Why do we have to be one extreme or the other?[/quote]
