2010 video shows Kamala Harris boasting about prosecuting parents, including homeless mom with two jobs, whose kids missed classes
In a 2010 video, Sen. Kamala Harris, who at the time was California’s attorney general, described with self-satisfaction how being tough on truancy got results when she was San Francisco’s district attorney.
Harris said parents responded to a new approach, led by her office, that called for threatening them with criminal charges and jail if their kids had chronic school absences.
Laughing, Harris said she wanted to scare parents by sending prosecutors who worked on gang and murder cases to meet with them about their children’s truancy.

Isn't separating parents from their children immoral, according to these whack jobs?
I remember when we here in FR advocated a tough love stand on juvenile behavior including the punishment of parents.
In acquiring power, a lack of ethics more than makes up for a lack of intelligence.
If the parents don’t care about school, some of the kids won’t but the ones that recognize their parents are eff ups, will grab it like a life line.
See ??? I told you lot she was really a sweet kind lady...
But NOOOOOO y’all insist shes a witch...
Dems won’t nominate a cop.
She Wlly Brown’d her wau up..

I am all for addressing issues with criminal behavoir of juveniles with "tough love" up to and including behavior and involvement of the parent(s) depending on the circumstances.
If a parent has a 10 year old kid involved in burglary, car theft, drugs or violence, and it is happening because the kid has no boundaries and is out at 1 AM on a weekday doing this...fine. But if it is a case of a kid leaving the house, skipping school, or doing other things while supposedly at school...I don't necessarily pin that on the parent fully.
I mean, after all, we saw what happened when a parent tried to handcuff a kid to a bedpost or radiator because they couldn't keep them in. That is tough love for sure.
I find it hard to get behind any actions a statist scumbag like her initiates.
Sounds like her personality and profile are just like Clinton when she was younger unbelievable remember when Clinton bragged about getting the child molester rapist off?
She would be just great.
Likely not when Dems do it for and by themselves.
> I REALLY want to see where THIS thread goes. <
LOL. Conservatives are all about enforcing reasonable laws. And truancy laws are reasonable. But I guess an exception is made when the enforcer is someone we don’t like.
She is trying to set herself apart from the rat pack, you know the same rat pack that encourages and supports this behavior
I learned everything I need to know about Camelass Harris from her performance at the Kavanaugh hearings.
Why would anyone be surprised at anything she does....after sleeping with Wille Brown for 10 years.....??????
She is going nowhere
Ping-a-ling... She doesn’t sound very homeschool-friendly. lol
