The parents of the kids who did this should be sued blue, as well as the administration and teachers of the school This should not be allowed to just go away. These little thugs need to be branded for life.
This question keeps coming across my mind too. I don't think children or teens amass to protest. I think these are the teachers and professors that are members of the unions that are being instructed to do this as an "exercise" of their "constitutional rights". Unfortnately the children don't have the maturity to think critically about what they are doing or haven't had proper parental guidance or are just following along. The good thing is that they are probably just parroting what their teachers / professors are telling them to say not even thinking about it and we are taking them too seriously. The idea is to instill fear in the people. Let's not let them have that and realize what's really going on.
I always keep this in mind when dealing with what we've gone through the last year. It keeps things in perspective of what we are dealing with because it's their "code book":
The rules
1. Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have. Power is derived from 2 main sources money and people. Have-Nots must build power from flesh and blood.
2. Never go outside the expertise of your people. It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.
3. Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy. Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.
4. Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
5. Ridicule is mans most potent weapon. There is no defense. Its irrational. Its infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. 6. A good tactic is one your people enjoy. Theyll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. Theyre doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Dont become old news.
8. Keep the pressure on. Never let up. Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.
10. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition." It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.
11. If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive. Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Never let the enemy score points because youre caught without a solution to the problem.
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.
Any of that look familiar. You bet. They're using it right now. They haven't realized they're violating # 7 obviously...
Parents held to account? Yes...minors branded for life? No. I did many stupid things in my childhood and had a good father. Had I been branded for life without the chance to make something of myself in adulthood then I wouldn’t have been able to become a successful as I am today.
Branded for life grants no second chances. As an adult I agree however you are wise enough in most cases not to act on impulse and experienced enough not to let emotions get the better of you
AMEN!!
