This is the state we are in all over this country.

We live(d) in a Constitutional Republic, and have laws (Both good and bad, useful and useless) that must be followed under penalty of law.

Much of the terrible situation is due to the fact that people and entities have decided which laws they will obey and which ones they will break, and it is compounded by governments at all levels deciding which ones they will enforce, and which ones they will ignore, or openly violate with impunity themselves.

Be it immigration law, tax law, election law, trading law, privacy law, property law, or violent crime law, some people can break those laws with impunity, while others are punished.

I have said it often on this forum: There are two fundamental things that must be met for this kind of Constitutional Republic to exist and governments under it to be legitimate, and if they are met, we consent to being governed:

First, we must be able to choose who governs us in free and fair elections.

Second, all citizens are subject to the same laws and must abide by them, including those elected.

I submit that we no longer live under a legitimate government, because neither of those conditions are met.

The fact that this school district chooses to ignore laws passed by legal legislative action (The same way that places around the country “choose” (against the law) to become “Sanctuary Cities” for illegal immigrants, or the federal government “chooses” to ignore the law it is legally tasked with enforcing.

We will not last like this.
