As the controversy over the reopening of schools roils on, districts around the country have already opened their doors to students this week. However, many administrators have discovered that their student body is not on the same page when it comes to pandemic safety protocol.

An image snapped by a Georgia student on the first day of the new school year Monday showed a packed hallway with very few masks in sight. The photo went viral on Twitter, now with close to 93,000 likes.

The unsettling picture quickly became emblematic of the passionate debate, which has pitted parents, students, teachers, administrators and politicians, from usually close-knit communities, against each other.

I propose “Abigail” as the name for the ratter outers in the age of Coronavirus, after Abigail Williams, who was the lead mean girl in the Salem Witch Hunt days.

Lets just drop actual names and call them what they are. Squealer, bitch, a-hole, jack-ass, whiner, bay-stuff crazy.

“As the controversy over the reopening of schools roils on”

I’m sure if Joe Birdbrain wins the election the teachers’ union and teachers will declare it is safe to open schools.

I’d be willing to bet money that little Hannah was sent to school with the very specific goal of gathering info/pics to create an uproar & force a school shutdown. (Alternately, little Hannah’s mom could’ve just kept her home and opted for online learning. But that wouldn’t satisfy her desire to control everyone else in her school district.)

We have more than our fair share for sure. Read the New Testament. Where Jesus told his Disciples that the people would deliver them to the Religious Rulers and think they were doing good. Compare that to what is happening today. Draw your own conclusion.

Masks aren’t useless. They are a new fashion accessory!

On Wednesday, Carmona reportedly announced over the intercom that any student found criticizing the school on social media could face disciplinary consequences, BuzzFeed reported.

Back in my high school days, that would have been enough to motivate me to action. Sounds like Carmona is an idiot on several levels.

They are about to make the announcement that police will now arrest anyone seen not wearing a mask.

Shall I tell you where to get off?!   My granddaughter is named Abigail.   Be cute and clever somewhere else.

Not sure about the application of the school rule here. Seems some leniency could be advanced- like just a warning.

I think it’s great that kids go to school and get tested quickly.
A very efficient method that will benefit the fight.
Early testing gets people and their contacts, into early treatment which seems to be a very good thing.

"Many will die"

"Some will die in hot pursuit

And fiery auto crashes

And some will die in hot pursuit

While sifting through my ashes

Some will fall in love with life

And drink from the fountain

That is pouring like a avalanche

Coming down the mountain"

Pepper...Butthole Sufers
