"They want everyone to fit into a mold and there's no room for individuality. These kids are our future, I think they should be treated with a little more respect. Their opinions count. Their thoughts count," Fletcher said.

Obviously, the chickee-poo and her mommy have some kind of problem with the principal.

These kids are our future

Scary thought.

I think they should be treated with a little more respect

Most kids, because of poor parenting, don't realize "respect" is something you earn, and it's a two-way street.

Their opinions count. Their thoughts count

No, they don't. And continuing to believe that they do will have dire consequences.

Just like people had problems with the corrupt Clintons and the corrupt Clintons had lots of fans ...

The principal is a criminal drunkard. They have a legitimate argument against his holding that job.

Scary thought.

You find it scary that this girl had the fortitude to object to an obviously tyrannical convicted criminal running a public school? You find it scary that she objected to the corruption that allowed this creep to keep his job in the first place? You object to the fact that this girl seems to think that school leaders should act as ROLE MODELS for their students, and refrain from engaging in criminal acts? Sorry, but I most certainly do NOT share your objections.

The principal threw his respectability out the window when he was convicted of committing a crime that he hypocritically lectured his own students against committing themselves. The girl has earned MY respect simply because she had the audacity to speak up against corruption and inept leadership when she saw it. If I wanted to live in a nation full of mindless bleating sheep who do whatever they're told, I'd move to Europe.
