I don’t know about democracy but I think I get the lefts point.
Use everyone,including children, to advance your twisted agenda.
As the bias media spews pro leftist nooze.

How many kids who refuse to go along with this farce will be penalized by their schools and bullied by their peers? Watch the “anti-bullying” crowd look the other way.

Does anyone think this fifth-rate newspaper would have published a piece like this in support of students planning to leave school to participate in the Right to Life march?

That’s pretty drastic isn’t it? I used to say I had diarrhea and nobody asked me another word.

Easy. Test them at 10 o’clock on the point of democracy. Make the test worth 75% of the term grade. No make up tests.

The ADA count is usually submitted at 9 am so that’s why the handlers picked 10 am. The schools will have already submitted the count so they’ll get their money.

No way advocating for this, wishing it upon anyone or the like...

From an OPSEC point of view this action will provide thousands of densely packed potential targets at specific gun free zones around the country at a specific time.

Would probably be a good day to keep little Timmy and sally home.

Let’s just get down to it. When the schools have clearly become indoctrination centers for a particular agenda they have lost legitimacy and need to be ended.

I know, right? Giving the exact time and date that students are planning to leave their classrooms and campuses is a perfectly safe and sane idea.

Idiots. My son-in-law is a math teacher and has already told his students that if they are not in his class at the scheduled time, they will receive zeroes and notes will not be available from him on anything covered in class that day.

The schools are opening themselves up to an unconscionable liability here and are violating their bond of trust with parents.

You're right but liberals don't view parents in the same way that conservatives do. They tolerate the kids living with their parents but in their minds they are the real "owners" of the kids and have veto power over the real parents.

Wrong thing to protest. It should be about how public schools deliberately and intentionally destroy kids’ value systems and send them out into the world as good marxists.

Conservative students should schedule a nationwide walkout in support of the 2nd Amendment and DARE administrators to do anything about it.
