In Oklahoma, the ‘usual hiring practices’ led to a drag queen elementary school principal

A school district in Oklahoma is standing by its decision to hire a drag queen as one of its elementary school principals. The story of Shane Brent Murnan is more shocking than that sentence indicates.

In 2001, when Murnan was teaching fifth graders in Stillwater, Oklahoma, he was arrested and charged with having images of children under 18 on his computer. There was no doubt, as a state appellate court judge said, that the pictures “do represent child pornography.” However, Murnan offered in his defense the fact that the pictures, which he had deleted, came to him by accident. The appellate court therefore ordered that his conviction should be reversed. One can’t help wondering what led to the raid on his computer in the first place, of course…

With his conviction on child porn reversed, Murnan pled guilty to a misdemeanor for pot possession, while keeping his teaching certificate. In October 2003, even that charge was expunged.

By 2004, with a clean record, Murnan launched his new career as a drag queen named Shantel Mandalay and entered the world of drag pageants. Judging by the photos, he was a hideous, grotesque parody of a real woman.

In 2018, Murnan jumped on the drag queen story hour phenomenon and got the chance to bring his creepiness to children across Oklahoma City’s library system. As always, one must ask (rhetorically, of course) why these people whose lives revolve around sexual perversion feel compelled to share their fetishes with children.

Murnan’s drag persona didn’t keep him out of the classroom. According to V1SUT, he spent the next eight years teaching in various Oklahoma elementary schools. V1SUT points out that the schools were poor rural and urban schools. At the urban schools, many of the students were not English speakers. In other words,

I think actually the problem is not the “district”, notice there are no names of the individuals provided that are the proximate cause of the late unpleasantness. The article is written as if these are simply faceless bureaucratic entities (apart from the tranny weirdo).

There is a person (or persons) who signed off on this. Who is that? They need to be identified and fired, and install employees willing and able to do the job they were hired to do. It is absurd for the people actually paying for compulsory education to be required to “tolerate” this or remove their kids from school. As you are no doubt aware, they will still be responsible for school funded property tax even if their children are removed from the school. Now what?

Of course all of this explains why the usual suspects are weaponizing the feds against them. And so it goes.

An example of how thoroughly and how convincingly conservatism has been defeated and discredited. This happened in one of the reddest states in the country under a 1-party Republican power structure.

“Oklahoma is a red state.”

I know, that’s my point.

Good. In my years in education in red states, I was always surprised by the open hostility expressed amongst teachers toward parents.
