The School Board today issued a statement on a recent Facebook post shared by board Chairwoman Christie New Craig that has stirred controversy.

Today, the division announced the board approved a statement:

[] "A recent social media post has resulted in some concern voiced by an advocacy group indicating its representation of a segment of the community. This post has had no effect on our commitment to maintaining equal opportunity and non-discrimination standards. The School Board welcomes and will consider communications from any person or organization with an interest in maintaining and/or improving the highest possible system of K-12 public education.”

The post Craig shared is a cartoon that reads, "Muslims hate pork, beer, dogs, bikinis, Jesus, and freedom of speech. My question is, what the hell do they come to America for?!"

And what about this “representation” is CAIR saying is false, exactly?

If that is true, your boss is a “MINO”

A Muslim in name only.

Almost every Muslim I have met is that way. I met a few “religious” ones but they are the exception.

Kinda like seeing the Baptists in the liquor store. “Just getting some boxes”.

They come to America and Europe to conquer, not to assimilate.

Uhh, it’s the truth, isn’t it? CAIR is an Islamist front group which should be packed up in a pigskin and sent back to Mecca.

TO KILL YOU.

And .. if anybody has not figured that out yet .. hold on to your hat .. because when all the Syrian Jihadi’ begin infiltrating America and Europe .. we’re going to be in a civil war against them.

Civil war is what we had 1861-1865, between Americans.
Syrian jihadis, even if invited by our own government, would be a foreign invasion.
Repelling a foreign invasion is just a plain old war.

The government may well be on their side.

I would say your boss is Arab, but not Muslim.

But .. they will not act like they’re at war. Their attacks will be random and stealth in nature .. exactly like the attacks we’ve seen in Paris and the UK.

Besides which, there are already a bunch of them here .. they have Islamic terror cells all across America.

How easy will it be for them to migrate here and then slip silently into the terror cell locations ..??

Yes, it will be “a war” .. but it will not be like anything we have ever dealt with before.
