Parents take a stand against FBI crackdown on CRT opponents
New York Post ^ | October 5, 2021 | Callie Patteson

Posted on 10/05/2021 2:09:44 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Politicians and parents are joining together to slam the Department of Justice’s recent decision to bring in the FBI to investigate what it called a spike in “harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence” against school teachers, administrations, board members and other staff.

In recent months, dozens of parents have taken a stand in school board meetings against the teaching of Critical Race Theory in classrooms and to protest mask mandates, causing some to wonder what the FBI and DOJ are actually investigating.

How does FIB possibly have jurisdiction in my local schoolboard?
 
They don't. Making a bunch of noise. Just another symptom of the ongoing collapse of the fed government.

The FBI just wants to taser some of those outspoken moms and dads to the ground in order to protect their health.

Yawn.....another day in Obama’s third term.......

Biden’s DOJ is running roughshod over the First Amendment:
<><> threatening to investigate parents
<><> salivating to prosecute parents
<><> making it a crime to speak out against tax paid school boards and teachers
<><> defending indoctrinating other people’s children
<><> advancing the failed cultural Marxism stupidly embraced by Democrats.

On Monday, Biden’s Attorney General, USSC failed wannabe, Merrick Garland, issued a vacuous memorandum in which he wailed about the “disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff.”

Clearing his throat with an empty nod to the inconvenient fact that the Constitution protects “spirited debate,” ignorant Garland incorrectly — indeed, outrageously for someone of his experience as a Justice Department official and federal appellate judge — claimed that free-speech principles yield not only to “threats of violence” but also to “efforts to intimidate individuals based on their views” (at least, evidently, individuals not named Sinema or Manchin).

“The FBI had advanced knowledge of the 9-11 attackers. They did nothing.
The FBI had advanced knowledge on the Boston Marathon bombers. They did nothing.
The FBI had advanced knowledge young female gymnasts were being sexually abused by trainers. They did nothing.
The FBI had advanced knowledge on the Pulse shooter. They did nothing.
The FBI had advanced knowledge on the recent FedEx shooter in Indianapolis. They did nothing....
But parents speaking out to protect their children??? THE FBI SAYS THEY MUST BE STOPPED!!!!!”

you left out that the FBI had ongoing knowledge
that athletic girls were being raped. 100s.
and did nothing.

.... just like the babies and children being raped
in videos by Hunter, videos which THEY PROTECTED
rather than the raped, taped, helpless children.

We need to develop some Critical Marxist, fascist DOJ Theory.

Hint: The DOJ/FIB is the Oppressor.

There are 3-4 others to add to that list. I’ll see if I can find my list in a bit.

Within this article you find the “Parents Defending Education .org.” They are leading the push back against the National Schoolboards Assn use of the DOJ. Their Facebook page provided an easy way to send an excellent email to the DOJ, asking that their dogs not be used against parents.
It is a small leap from the DOJ ‘finding evidence’ that parents are terrorist and education someday becoming Federalized - regardless of the Constitution.
I see the issue as the Socialists v the Constitution - Not Dem v Repubs. The school boards are too often being elected by the Left. Enough!

The Feds would have no legislative or criminal jurisdiction over schools if the Constitution was in force.

yet where was the DOJ and the FBI when Conservatives in the Trump administration were actually being stalked, threated and harassed?

They were probably stalking, threatening, and harassing.
