[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most teachers would not go along with this. Perhaps I'm jaded, but public school teachers who really care are few and far between. They would only do it if:

1)  they continued to get paid during the strike or back pay once it's over, 
2)  they are guaranteed to get their jobs back after the strike.

In other words, only if it benefits them personally.[/quote]

Wow, after a shooting in which 2 teachers/coaches died because they put their body between the shooter and students, you post that you think teachers don't really care?

Wanting my kid to be fed, and a roof over their head, does not make me a bad person. Wanting to keep the job that's critical to the future of this country, and that provides the means to support my kid, is not some terrible thing.  The idea that this one profession should bear the entire financial cost of this struggle is absurd.

Why don't you donate 10 weeks of your salary to organizations that support gun control.  That can be your contribution.  I'll continue to do my part by teaching kids to the very best of my ability, so that hopefully fewer them will feel what this man was feeling.[/quote]
