L.A. teachers union says schools can't reopen unless charter schools get shut down, police defunded

The Los Angeles Teachers Union says its schools can’t open in the fall unless charter schools are closed and the police are defunded.

These are the Marxist loons teaching your kids.

Oh, and they want more money.

83% of teachers voted to not reopen in the fall.
But they still expect to get paid.

Just the News reported:

United Teachers Los Angeles, a 35,000-strong union in the Los Angeles Unified School District, made those demands in a policy paper it released this week. The organization called on local authorities to “keep school campuses closed when the semester begins on Aug. 18.”

The union outlined numerous major provisions it says will be necessary to reopen schools again, including sequestering students in small groups throughout the school day, providing students with masks and other forms of protective equipment, and re-designing school layouts in order to facilitate “social distancing.”

Yet the union goes even farther than those requests, calling for “local support” in the form of defunded police departments and the shuttering of charter schools.

Police violence “is a leading cause of death and trauma for Black people, and is a serious public health and moral issue,” the union writes.

Sounds like there should be 83% new teachers.

These left-wing $hit stains are indoctrinators, NOT “teachers.” They should be fired and put in prison.

The leading cause of death amongst blacks is being killed by OTHER blacks.

I have one word for teachers unions: PATCO.

PATCO's strike was illegal. I doubt the L.A. teachers are in the same situation.

“So who will win the shootouts between the cops and teachers?”

From my experience, their is unlikely to be a winner. However the playground would be a bloodbath.

Once the free money stops coming in in the form of paychecks for no work, let’s see how many want the schools closed. Unfortunately it is LA so the checks will keep coming until the city slides into default. Their problem. No soup or Federal funds for you. Have fun. If I were running the city, the striking teachers would be fired, the union decertified and I would spend the year hiring their replacements for 2021

“Police violence “is a leading cause of death and trauma for Black people”

Unfortunately the leading cause of death for black people in urban cities run by democrats are black people.

If they want to stay behind the rest of the country let them They want to cause as much chaos before the election. It’s that simple. Take the govt funding they would get and give it to those that are opening back up

Fine. Keep the schools closed, and pay the teachers based on the amount of work they do, or don’t do.
************************************************************
Well, they will claim they are working full time, remotely from home. In almost all cases that is a lie, of course.

Meanwhile more of their YUTES become feral and those already feral become more feral. And, on average, their populations will become even more uneducated than they were before.

We know what the union teachers wants, but what do taxpaying parent voters want?

Send “Orange Man Bad” federal and state government desperate Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a “third term” in office imo.
