School Boards and Idiots
American Thinker.com ^ | October 17, 2021 | Clarice Feldman

Mark Twain famously said, “In the first place, God made idiots. That was for practice. Then he made school boards.” If you ever doubted the wisdom of this observation, the conduct of the Loudoun County School Board, the National School Boards Association, and Attorney General Merrick Garland should put paid to your skepticism. A more patent a collection of idiots it would be hard to find.

The heroes in this story are Scott Smith, father of a young girl who had been sexually assaulted in a Loudoun County school bathroom by a “gender fluid” boy wearing a skirt, with an assist from the America First Legal Foundation (AFL), and the thousands of concerned parents of public school children around the country.

Attorney General Garland Sics the FBI on Parents

We were puzzled by Garland’s preposterous memorandum ordering the FBI to investigate angry parents showing up at school board meetings as “domestic terrorists,” but AFL, in a letter to Inspector General Michael Horowitz, makes a credible series of factual assertions about the genesis of this outrageous order. The AFL correctly reminds that the “Supreme Court has repeatedly recognized ”parents’ right to control and direct the education of their own children.” They note the large, ongoing protests by parents against Critical Race Theory indoctrination, “anti-religious and anti-family gender ideology,” and forced masking and online education mandates.

The genesis of the Garland memorandum in AFL’s telling was an effort of Biden-supporting outfits, including the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers,

it almost seems as if every podunk town liberal politician and bureaucrat is angling for a promotion to a federal bureaucrat job in DC. Imaginably, the interview process consists at least in part of making certain that the interviewee is one of the protected groups and of the correct political leanings. Once they get there and wait out their 6 month probation period, they are set, and extend a helping hand to similar interviewees. Since the bureaucracy is designed only to grow and never to shrink, the problem only grows.

The left in Europe sacrificed thousands of girls on the altar of “multiculturism” by suppressing Muslim refugee rape stories as well. The Loudon County school board and school officials did the same thing as inconvenient rapes undermine its gender policies. The right predicted that deviants would use the bathroom policy to gain access to girls when they were most vulnerable. The left can’t admit we were right.

Not just regular idiots but 'useful idiots'! These are the idiots who were last indoctrinated in college classes. Some day it will be realized that the way to stop the spread of communism in the US will be to defund the colleges and universities.

They used this poor father as an example as to why garland issued this bullsh##. Hes more than happy to do so, so as to protect his families fortune in CRT. The scummedia knew the back story of a rape of a 9 year old but now we find out that the school superintendent knew about it and many others and shoved it under the rug. The parents need to light the fires and remove these despicable humans. How do you hide this knowing you have children of your own???

Those allowing/assisting for something like this to happen need to punished similar to the perp, but even if the perp is not punished, they should all be named as guilty..and thereafter watched like a hawk.

I've no idea, as your homepage doesn't reveal it.

You are at least 22 years old; according to your signup date.


If you learned to post on FR at birth! ;^)

One of the Pittsburgh newspapers has endorsed another totalitarian idea that has come out of Garland’s Justice Department.

We Americans are supposed to report each other to the local FBI office if we suspect anyone who might be harboring racist ideas or is a member of a white supremacist group or is involved in any kind of activity that threatens the social fabric. You know, maybe people who fly a “Don’t tread on me” or Confederate flag or are members of a conservative Christian church that preaches homosexuality is a sin?

How are Republicans allowing any of this to go forward? Is Rand Paul the only voice objecting to this? “Enemies of the state” are to be hauled before the FBI and imprisoned? A social justice warrior neighbor who doesn’t like your political views or finds them offensive or threatening can turn you into the state authorities?

This is shocking beyond belief. Who will stop this madness?

Re: defunding colleges and universities

The indoctrination starts in Pre-K.

Defund all government schooling from Pre-K through university graduate school.
