WATCH – Conservative School Board Member Fires Back at Liberal Colleague Trying to Silence Parent: ‘You Are Out of Line’

My neck of the woods. Bridget Ziegler has been on the school board for Sarasota county for several years now, and has grown more and more effective and fearless an advocate for parent's rights and against collectivist doctrine in the K-12 curriculum. All this attention has had her on Fox several times over the last few months, and deservedly so. She has truly shone a very bright light on these cockroaches. Her husband is Christian Ziegler, who next to Joe Gruters has been one of the best fighters for getting a good number of conservative Republicans elected statewide, advocates for individual rights here in the Sunshine State and staunch supporters of Donald Trump.

I remember Jane Goodwin from the local GOP campaigns during our re-election efforts for GW Bush in 2004, and saw in her then a rather political animal, self-serving and leaning left. These 'liberals' often show their inner fascist in this way, so none of this surprises anyone in Sarasota.

Lastly, our local sheriff, Kurt Hoffman, was quite to go live on the media and make certain that the popos sicced on this woman at Goodwin's orders were NOT Sarasota County Sheriffs -- they were the private police force that Sarasota County schools maintain. Hoffman would never allow his men to do such a thing. Which is why the school cops come in so handy for the tyrannical yet cowardly likes of Goodwin.

I wonder how often that tactic is being used around the country? Great catch Joe Brower...

What, if any, authority do they possess? Do they have legitimate arrest authority? Do they enjoy qualified immunity? If they interfere with your rights and you get in their grill are there enhancements to any charges you might face?
