[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are aspects of the Republican party that makes me worried about voting in a more right-leaning school board. Examples include banning books, encouraging students to report their teachers if the lesson makes them "uncomfortable," posting the Ten Commandments in schools, pushing a Christian-based curriculum, white-washing history, and so the list goes on. We've already gotten a taste of some of that with the "rat out your teachers" hotline that Youngkin set up when he first came into office. Our school board isn't perfect, and I disagree with them on issues, but when I look at other states, I'm glad we don't have to deal with right-wing Christian nationality flooding our schools with nonsense. This is not the Republican party of old. This is a the party that will say, under oath, that Roe vs. Wade is established law. That vaccines won't be touched. If that's happening at the national level, I don't expect much different at the local government or school board level. [/quote] We have children injuring other children in schools and you’re worried about this nonsense? Get your priorities straight and vote in people that will address the real issues because the people in there now are endangering children. [/quote] Children injuring other children? I presume you're talking about school shootings. Firearms are the leading cause of death for children in America, beating out car accidents. And that's currently an issue Repblicans tend to downplay. Or rather, they'll send some thoughts and prayers when it happens. Yes, you're absolutely right, let's vote in people who will address real issues that are endangering children. Not the "thoughts and prayers" crowd, but the party that actually wants to protect our children with legislation and action. Get your priorities straight! [/quote]
