Two more examples today, this and the pedophile woman in Wisconsin . I’m so glad we have enlightened “educators” to protect our children from their Neanderthal parents on such issues as sexual education

In North Korea, one could be shot for this.

An nation of lunatics does crazy things. The people need to be controlled to protect ‘our democracy’.

They encourage this crap to justify the dictatorship they’re installing believing they are not noticed and the people are unaware.

Korean woman not afraid of threatening American children is instructive.

She responded by texting one of them later that night and spoke on the phone for more than half an hour, trying to prove there was a conspiracy against Jessica.

Mom’s not doing Jessica any favors.

It is common in Oklahoma for administrators of small rural independent school districts with something on the range of 200 to 250 students or less to be paid packages on the order of $200,000 per year. They are often amongst the highest paid and securely employed people in dirt poor areas and inevitably are the earliest and most well off retirees. There are hundreds of these little schools across the state that should at least be part of consolidated and more efficiently run systems. All this in a state that is too poor to fix its roads or even pay attention.

In a recent federal jury pool experience I was shocked that by far and away the majority of people employed were in local education or some form of social services. The rest were in trades and seldom agriculture or retired from some industry, federal or military job outside the area. Rural Oklahoma is a good example of a nation that produces nothing or not much. Another "service based" economy.

We have no shortage of overpaid bureaucrats at every level of our state and federal government. That has always been the case, however what is new is how utterly useless and entitled these freaks have become; producing zero value for their salary.

[Zuriel]

In other words, they are good talkers. They are good at convincing people their school needs mo and mo money.

No one-to-one contact between an adult and a minor, regardless of the topic, is a youth protection safeguard. All communications should include a parent/guardian; in-person conversations need to be in public, that is, line-of-sight with witnesses.

What's wrong with these people?

[Boomer]

She should also face felony arrest and prison time for her crimes of intimidation to the young people she is supposed to protect.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

When Hillary was campaigning for Senate at the NY state fair, the secret service or campaign folks dressed like them came through the crowds ahead of Hillary and took all the signs for her opponent.
