Anyway, why would anyone who cares enough to speak, who is identifiable, care if their address is shared?”

because they don’t want to get a knock on the door at 0-dark-hundred.

Great idea:

"My name is John Smith and I live at 1234 Oak Street ... oh, wait a moment, that's your home address, Ms. Bully. Sorry about that!"

I dont know why you cant respect that many people have legit concerns they want to voice yet dont appreciate having a target painted on their backs? Intimidation is a tactic being employed by the left. It comes in many forms. If it has always been ‘policy’ that anyone speaking at a PTA or school board meeting state their address before speaking, thats one thing. If this is a recent change, thats another. Its not about whether they can be identified. They likely can be. Its about any means to intimidate them NOT to speak.

Now, that’s HARRASSMENT!

And Garland probably will have them arrested if they don’t comply.

I can’t count the number of times, in the past few years, the term Atlas Shrugged has come to mind.

They never check these things

Au contraire my FRiend. Cross these people at the meeting and you can be guaranteed a quick drive-by inspection by the assessor, whoever is in charge of zoning...whatever. The excuse given is that the board wants to make sure that "outsiders" don't come in to disrupt the workings of the board, but really, they want you (the unhappy taxpayer) to be aware that "they know where you live". It is naked intimidation!!!

Really? It’s intimidation. Say the wrong thing and “we know where you live”. You have a Constitutional right to speak at school board meetings which is not contingent on arbitrary “rules” established by the board.

Because these school board meetings are broadcast on the internet and antifa has a presence in Minnesota. Are you dumb?

duckduckgo - (name of school board member + minnesota + mylife) because everyone has a mylife page. No guarantee of accuracy though.

I believe the board could be sued for this. It makes the parents an easy target for the whacked out crazy liberals. Someone could get killed because of this. Also it means that school board members should also have to give their address before they are allowed to speak.
