[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At this point our likely at large members are moon, mcelveen, and mcdaniel or davis.[/quote]

Agree and I would vote for Davis for some diversity of viewpoint. It’s also a little creepy how Kyle McDaniel, a former aide to Pat Herrity, has repackaged himself as a left-of-center Democrat like he’s the second coming of Laura Jane Cohen. [/quote]

No way I'm voting for any Republican.[/quote]

Davis is an independent and McDaniel is a former Republican. Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with the shifting affiliations. [/quote]

McDaniel sounds good to me as a moderate. No way to Davis since she supports book bans in school libraries rather than the current process of allowing professional librarians to select books, people to challenge books, and most importantly parents to monitor what their [b]own[/b] kids read if they have such strong beliefs.

I have positive associations with Moon and like that he could help bring some order to the board chaos with his experience, but will have to think more on that.

Still thinking about a third.

Mostly, I hope people look into candidates themselves instead of just following the endorsement of FCDC that brought us horrible members like Keys Gamarra and Omeish.[/quote]

Please.

By book bans you mean porn.

Those who don't have any leg to stand on shout "book burning" to try to distract from the fact that they are advocating for books depicting graphic photos of stuff like orgies, genitals,  graphic sex in school libraries.

Davis' view on this aligns with most parents and civil society.

It is -objectively- not porn. And you and your kids are free to to check any of those books out. You do not have the right to prevent me and my children from doing so. Mind your own house and business. [/quote]

You want to regulate the hell out of everyone except when it comes to smutty materials in school libraries.  They it's all about "my rights."

That tells us all we need to know about your agenda and priorities.  Hopefully new School Board members will have a keener appreciation of community standards than the current, horrid bunch. [/quote]

This is the very opposite of regulation, dumba$$.  It is leaving YOU to decide for your kid; and me to mine. God, you're a moron. [/quote]

It must be tough constantly having to harangue people when they just want high academic standards and some basic decency in the schools, all to keep the fringes of your coalition happy.  But it's hard to feel sorry for you when you're so obviously a complete and utter jerk.  [/quote]

I mean, that's a nice word salad to say nothing at all.

My kid has high academics: all honors and APs and all As. Sorry your kid isn't doing so well. Maybe it's not the schools.

In terms of "smut", does your kid have a phone? Will they? If so, then you lose any credibility with re: to this issue. WAY worse on the phones. If you're legit that you won't give your kid a phone until older HS age, then you may at least have some moral high ground. Still doesn't give you the right to decide what my kid has access to.[/quote]
