He donated to Ebbin in May 2022 and has Washington, DC as his address.

I understand a few people have such a grudge that they'll vote for him as a protest vote, but would you really want to trust this 22 year old with $800M of our tax revenue and our kids' education?[/quote]

[b]Better than someone who thought that abusing teachers, Duran, and other parents was acceptable behavior. [/b]

That shows, at best, poor judgment. At worst…

Either way, not someone who should be on the SB.

So, yes, he is the more trustworthy candidate. [/quote]

I know this has been pointed out to you repeatedly, but Miranda Turner never abused and teachers, Duran, or other parents. You're holding onto that grudge as hard as you, but your positions were wrong. We know that now but you just can't let it go. [/quote]

I know this has been pointed out to you repeatedly, but Miranda Turner personally chose to partner and [u]lead[/u] a group of parents who were abusive towards teachers, staff, and other parents. 100% her choice to do that.

Has her personal judgment or moral code changed since then? Has she apologized for any of that?

[/quote]

She has nothing to apologize for. She is not responsible for other people's actions. Have you apologized for letting your fear keep schools closed longer than necessary and the subsequent academic and socioemotional fallout that is disproportionately impacting the most vulnerable students?[/quote]

She’s responsible for her actions. She *chose* to work with these people. For years. 
[/quote]

I know it enrages you, but Arlington Parents for Education is doing effective, informed advocacy in APS. It's not a black mark to be involved in founding it. You need to let go of the past. You were wrong. Move on. [/quote]

I’m concerned for the future. She has demonstrated poor judgment and stood by as people abused teachers, staff, and other parents. I don’t trust her to support teachers, APS, or parents *in the future*. 
[/quote]

You've giving "I'm going to vote for Donald Trump because I don't trust Hillary Clinton" vibes. [/quote]

More like, I’d vote for any Republican over Trump to keep Trump out. 
[/quote]

Nope, you're rooting for the man that is very clearly unqualified and unfit for office over an experienced and involved woman who knows the issues. You're on the Trump side. Sorry. [/quote]

She’s no Hillary.

And how is Angelo “unfit”?

BUT HER EMAILSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111

To steal a comment from an ARLNOW commenter:

Since you asked: (1) His first proposal was to make Plan B available in every high school bathroom; (2) He promoted himself as someone who worked for Beyer, when he was a volunteer (probably door knocker); (3) His website claims that he is an "Arlington story" because he greeted veterans at BWI and supported voter registration in Alexandria (geography much?); (4) He published a statement that he was withdrawing from the race, and then blamed suggestions that he was withdrawing on "rumors"; (5) He claims to serve on the APS School Health Advisory Board, but public records show he has only attended one meeting; and generally (6) If you have watched him in his last two debates, it becomes apparent that he knows nothing about the issues that plague APS.[/quote]

He’s as “fit” as many of former SB members.

And he hasn’t stood by as partners bullied APS teachers, staff, and parents. 
[/quote]

BUT HER EMAILS!!!!!1111

Seriously, that's 100% what you sound like. [/quote]

I’m holding her accountable for her actions. She [u]chose[/u] bullying over APS.

I don’t trust her with our schools. 
[/quote]

"I am holding her accountable for the actions of other people and supporting an unqualified man because I'm very very bitter."

EMAAAAAIIILLLLLLS[/quote]

The “emails” didn’t actually do any harm, unlike the bullying and hostility (which we are seeing again here - shocker).

Miranda is an adult and made her own choices. When it came down to it, she didn’t choose APS. Therefore, I don’t trust her to make decisions for APS.

I’ll take a fresh positive, perspective over someone who has demonstrated that, when push comes to shove, she doesn’t support APS. [/quote]
