Where there’s a will, there’s a way!

In 2019 the state passed a law against suspending students for disruptive behavior in the classroom. See? With that one simple action, they made it worse!

Can We Make California’s Schools Worse?

The absurd “law” went into effect in 2020. Please spare me the brain-dead liberal platitudes. I have been a public school teacher. I know how bad it gets. In the teachers’ lunchroom they fantasize about shooting at least one student every day to keep the rest in line.

California’s experiment in chaos has already failed. Make sure you wear galoshes when you walk in San Francisco.

Eye-Popping Numbers from the U.S. Dept. of Education

What are you getting for your school taxes?

You’re getting screwed.

Here are official Dept. of Education figures for the decades 2000-2019.

In those 20 years, the number of students enrolled in public schools increased by 7.6 percent, the number of teachers employed went up 8.7 percent–

And the number of “administrators” in the schools increased by 87.6 percent.

Is this insane or what? Why do we need this swarm of “administrators”? Principals, vice principals, “diversity” mullahs, “inclusion” experts–it’s like a wave of army ants. These are the “education theorists” who subject our children to Critical Race Theory, transgender, LGBTQ porn in the school libraries, and all the rest of the abominations for which public education is… can I say “noted”?

Nothing is hurting America more than what we insist on calling “public education.”

This has to stop. It really has to stop. And I’m afraid the only way to do it is to pull the children out of public schools. We can’t change the bizarre Marxist mindset of teachers’ college graduates, and even less, that of the “administrators.” Let them practice their voodoo in empty classrooms.

Finally! Loudon County School Chief Canned

Loudoun Schools curriculum attacked, defended at protests before board meeting | Education | loudountimes.com

Loudon County parents aren’t exactly enamored of their school board lately.

It took the better part of a year and then some to fire the Loudon County, VA, superintendent of schools; but the county school board finally did it, this week (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/education/loudoun-county-school-board-fires-superintendent).

In 2021 a boy wearing a dress and calling himself “trans” raped a girl in the girls’ bathroom. What did “school officials” do about it? Why, they transferred the rapist to another school, of course! And guess what he did there [cue “Jeopardy” theme]. That’s right–he attacked another girl (see Oct. 26, 2021, ‘Helzapoppin’ in Loudon County School District,

Through it all, the superintendent maintained a stance of “nothin’ wrong here, nothin’ like that happens in our schools,” etc., etc. I’ll tell ya, chuckles–it was your insane policies that created those incidents. Your fault! And although the grand jury didn’t indict you, they sure ripped you a new one, didn’t they?

And a question for the school board members: Why did it take you more than whole year to run this schlemozzle out of town? Were you looking for the upside to “transgender”? There is no upside! You should’ve canned this jerk before he gave the rapist a chance to attack anyone else.

But that’s public schooling for you, isn’t it? I think I may have more Skool Nooze for you later… I’ll have to see what develops.

Teaching American Kids to Hate America

Nope, nothin’ in there!

Sometimes I want to just throw up my hands and pretend there is no nooze, it was all a bad dream, none of it was ever real…

Like this report, for instance (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4111084/posts):

Some eighty percent (!) of 18-20-year-olds who have been to public school, most of whom, we presume, are now getting their brains finished off in college, believe the garbage they were taught in school–“Gender is an identity choice,” all white people have white privilege (LOL), America is a racist hell, etc., etc.

This is what we’re getting for our school tax dollars. This is what they’re “teaching” our children. How much longer our country will survive it is everybody’s guess. I mean, I wonder how many of these kids will have changed their minds by the time they’re 30.

God help us, it’s like we’re hiring the very hit men who will assassinate us.

No! You can’t just have a country that everybody hates! Sooner or later it bites the dust. The Soviet Union lasted for 70 years–a pretty good run for a merciless dictatorship that bullied and abused its people.

I am convinced that this is what our teachers’ colleges have in mind for us.

We can’t keep both our republic and our insane Far Left public school system. One or the other must go.

Holy Cow, What a Question!

Everything Eric Swalwell Said During the Democratic Debate in Miami | NBC New York - YouTube

Known nincompoop Eric Swalwell, Democrat Congressman from California, says allowing parental involvement in “education” is as silly as asking hospital patients to perform their own surgeries (https://justthenews.com/government/congress/dem-rep-says-parent-oversight-education-putting-patients-charge-their-own).

And then he stepped on a rake.

“When did we stop trusting experts?” he asked.

Uh… when we saw and heard what they were doing?

“Education experts”–hot dog! Let’s see… what sort of goodies do those experts serve up to our children?

Critical Race Theory, frantic promotion of “transgender,” homosexual porn in the school libraries, “history” lessons that paint our country out as some kind of Evil Empire, feverish sermons on Climate Change, the whole curriculum soaked and steeped in socialism–yeah, that’s what we’re getting from those “experts.”

The only mystery here is why anybody lets their children stay in public schools.

“Fools!” said I, “you do not know/ hubris like a cancer grows.

You think you’ve got it all wrapped up, you’ve put the poison in our cup,

But someday you’ll simply go too far, it leaves a scar–

and you will drown… in hubris.

Democrats Afflicted With E.D.

Self-Alienation: The Hidden Agenda of Traditional Schooling | by Isabel Moino | Medium

Shut down public education, and Far Left Crazy dies.

(Sorry about the headline–couldn’t resist.)

As a public service over the next couple of days, I’m going to rerun posts written just after Election Day, 2016, featuring assorted Democrats in full-blown “Election Denial” mode. You know–the very thing they scream at us.

First we have the San Francisco teachers’ union.

SF Teachers: Teach the Kiddies That Hillary Won

Teach the kiddies that Hillary won, and then when they go home and see on TV that no, Donald Trump won the election–just say “We’re not counting it because Blank-blank Trump didn’t win, he colluded with the Russians” etc., etc.

I have encountered public school teachers who said it was okay to knowingly teach children things that aren’t true, if it made them feel better about themselves.

Open that door just a crack and see what lies come in.

Virginia Bill Would Criminalize… Parents!

Bad enough I have to write about this garbage. I don’t have to illustrate it, too. Here’s a nice lizard instead.

What’s that? You won’t go along with your 6-year-old son’s sudden desire to, er, “be a girl instead”?

We-hell-hell! Are you in trouble! Or rather, you will  be if we can get this bill passed (https://jonathanturley.org/2022/10/17/virginia-becomes-ground-zero-in-battles-over-parental-rights/).

Those who use the public schools to groom children for sex are not giving up easily. Why should they? They’ve got the Democrat Party and the teachers’ unions solidly behind them.

So a Democrat legislator in Virginia has introduced a bill to criminalize and punish parents who oppose their child’s “choice” to undergo “gender reassignment therapy.” Either “affirm” your child’s so-called “choice”… or go to jail!

And meanwhile, some “journalist” in Virginia has taken it upon himself to melt down the phone system at Child Protective Services because some woman he was talking to forgot she was supposed to hate our country.

Where do we get these wretched people? It’s like something nasty crawls out from under a rotten log and gets to govern us. And “educate” our children. (Sorry for all the quotation marks! But I find them necessary when quoting idiots and examining what they like to call their “ideas.”) How do they wind up running the show?

Think about this hypothetically. Your 12-year-old daughter wants to be a pole dancer at a “men’s club” because she learned in school that this was a really cool thing to do, and her, uh, “teacher” told her she could make a lot of money. You, the parents, say “No, Trixie, you can’t be a pole dancer at the men’s club…” Well, under the proposed new law, your decision would be…ta-dah! Child abuse!

This is your Democrat Party at work. Why it still exists is a mystery to me.

School Board vs. Angry Parents

Opinion | Angry parents at school board meetings have a right to speak - The Washington Post

“The plebs are getting uppity!”

Dearborn, Michigan, school board president, to angry parents (her audience):

“We will not boo, we will not jeer. You can clap if you like, and you’ll listen to the speaker” (https://www.foxnews.com/us/dearborn-michigan-school-board-meeting-books-ends-parents-told-not-boo-clap-only).

The parents were there to object to lurid sex books being made available to children via the school libraries. Obviously they did not understand that their role in “education” begins and ends with paying for it. So the board president addressed them like a schoolmarm letting a roomful of dumb kids know who’s boss.

And for some reason that didn’t tone them down, but only made ’em madder! Who would have thought it? So the board called the cops (What? The FBI wasn’t already there, spying on the parents?) and shut the meeting down.

Remember when your local school board was your neighbors and your friends, just trying to do a good job for the community? How long ago was that? What happened to make it stop?

Now they seem to envision themselves as some kind of masters over the rest of us, with an overriding claim to authority over our children. If we don’t like it, they’ll call the FBI and you’ll have them breaking down your door in the middle of the night.

We pay for those schools, every red cent of it. How come we have no ownership rights?

Kids Need Rescue–from Public Schools

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Exodus Mandate - Home | Facebook

Exodus Mandate has been a leading critic of Common Core and other “educational” malpractice.

You don’t have to have children or grandchildren in school to be distressed by what the public schools are doing. Racial paranoia, racial strife, transgender propaganda, grooming kids for sex–the news makes your flesh crawl… but what can you do?

There are many things that can be done, and here’s one of them.

Contribute to the Exodus Mandate (exodusmandate.org). Or contact them to see if there’s a Christian school project in your area that could use your help.

Exodus is celebrating its 25th year in ministry. They’re currently helping the Illinois Family Institute and Public School Exit start up Christian schools across the state of Illinois. Exodus Mandate lends a hand to such projects throughout the country.

Actually, there really is a nationwide movement to get kids out of the teachers’ unions’ Far Left Crazy public schools–“Broken beyond repair,” as Exodus Mandate says. But that’s no exaggeration, and Exodus does important work liaising with and encouraging local grassroots efforts.

Exodus President E. Ray Moore had been working very hard, making the rounds of Christian media, fielding phone calls and emails from all over the country. I’ve interviewed him several times, over the years. This man doesn’t give up easily.

For more information, phone the Exodus Mandate at 803-714-1744. You might find out there’s a Christian school project in your own neighborhood–and maybe you can help.

One thing I’m sure of:

Put an end to public schooling, and the Far Left dies.

‘Teacher’: It’s OK to Throw Bricks at People with the Wrong Politics

Thief' throws brick at car – only for it to bounce back in his face | Metro News

Make sure you wear your hoody when you vandalize a car!

How do you deal with political disagreement? Well… you throw bricks!

This is the “teaching” offered at a middle school in New York City (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/09/project-veritas-nyc-middle-school-teacher-encourages-students-engage-political-violence-throw-bricks-people-opposing-views-video/). “The New School of Leadership and the Arts.” Don’t ask what they mean by that.

Project Veritas caught the “teacher” saying you [her students] have to go “at the people who are actually doing the things that [need to] change.” But not, of course, in any “black or brown communities.” Only throw bricks at white people.

Complete the sentence and win a tin foil hat! “I send my children to public school to be ‘educated’ by the likes of this jidrool because ____________!”

I double-dog dare you to say it’s for “socialization.”
