And I cancelled my subscription to the KC (Red) Star. I almost cancelled after they canned Linda Bowles. Then I almost cancelled after Louis Diugiud's historically inaccurate rant about "Radical Republicans". And then they outed Father Thom Savage, unnecessarily. That put me over the top. So I don't get the KC (Red) Star to read anymore.
So the only way I even heard about this was on the top of the hour news reports. The first public school teacher who even THINKS of doing this to my child will get personally "pantsed" by me.
And I'm with you, Troutstalker. The WSJ is a much better grade of paper, anyway you judge it. And I point out the articles about resisting governmental intrusion to my children on a regular basis. My children, I hope, would resist these Gestapo tactics. fsf
