Schools as a whole aren't pushing ANY political agendas, so your delusions aren't something I think anyone should be pushing on our schools.

The simple fact is, it's ALL about the anti-America agenda that Democrats are foisting on our kids..

THAT is the SOLE reason that you claim that parents shouldn't be involved in their kids education..

Oh I think parents should definitely be involved in their kids education. What I find frustrating is that you don't give a shit about educating kids or their well being, you are simply using kids and schools as a political weapon to wage your culture wars! Do you not see how ignorant your claim that Democrats are pushing an "ANTI-AMERICA" agenda truly sounds? Run for your lives! What does it serve Democrats that have to live in America to push an agenda that is against themselves? Republicans lack of educations and hatred of intelligence has resulted in you believing the most ridiculous things. Want an example? Here ya go....

It's just like ya'all supporting illegal immigration SOLELY because illegal immigrants vote Democrat..

If illegal immigrants voted GOP, then ya'all would want the southern border locked up tight...

SO Republicans are against illegal immigrants because they believe that they are able to vote for Democrats? Seriously, take a Civics refresher course.

It's ALL about the anti-America agenda.. No other consideration comes into play.. Certainly not the welfare and well being of the children..

And Republicans care so much.... Many of your politicians voted against the bill to fund baby formula and to help lower class families pay for it. Ya'll tried to make it legal to marry infants in TN. Ya'll voted against extending the child tax credit that caused 4 million children to fall back under the poverty line. Yeah, it's great to see how much ya'll care!

What's your definition of mental health? Non standard gender isn't caused by a virus, bacterium or parasite. It doesn't result in death or dismemberment, impede growth, nor prevent one from operating heavy machinery. Literally, behavior is the only thing about it that makes an individual with it any different from anyone else. Maybe there's some deep underlying genetic or gestational cause, but for all intents and purposes a person of unusual gender has absolutely no infirmity or impairment.

What about contraception?

Are you against the pill and other methods of contraception?

Does making love mean making babies or giving pleasure?

Pleasure can be withheld quite easily from men like you!

Business is not about being fair, it's about contracts which Elon signed. If he waved due diligence, tough bananas. Pay your agreed to billion back out clause and remember to be a businessman next time...

"It's been a real.... slice..."
-Meg, HERCULES

:D

And yet, SCIENCE says that it is...

Baby Killing AKA Abortion stops a beating heart...

That's the science my friend.. :D

Elon Musk is bent out of shape because Tesla stock is way down. He waved due diligence to speed up the twitter deal which turns out might not have been a good business decision. He signed the contract. Deal with it. But it's all really about Tesla stock being down...

Twitter filed false SEC reports regarding Spam Bots..

It's only fair that the offer be reduced comparatively to the actual SPAM BOT count...

Because it's not natural.. It's ideological...

Democrats want to push toddlers into being transgendered..

An opinion piece by someone who has no idea how abortion even works.

And yet, we're talking about the LAW.. Of which Mr Turley is an acknowledged expert..

Face reality, Bash... On baby killing, Democrats lost... Pure and simple..

We don't know enough yet but it looks no where near as infectious as COVID and would require some radical mutations to get there. It would not be that big a deal if everyone participated in prevention but those who politicize such as you and your Trumpers won't participate no matter what so who knows...

With Monkeypox the old are somewhat protected because of smallpox vaccinations and it mostly kills the very young which might change opinions and actions but probably not..

So, in your opinion, it's nothing to worry about..

I'll quote you on that when your Democrats start screaming hysterically about it as a way to cheat in the midterms.. :D

An opinion piece by someone who has no idea how abortion even works. Yawn...

We don't know enough yet but it looks no where near as infectious as COVID and would require some radical mutations to get there. It would not be that big a deal if everyone participated in prevention but those who politicize such as you and your Trumpers won't participate no matter what so who knows...

The real fallout will be for the right wing to use it against the gay population to motivate the evangelicals and other far right religious groups to vote even though it's just as infectious with heterosexual sex and intimacy.

With Monkeypox the old are somewhat protected because of smallpox vaccinations and it mostly kills the very young which might change opinions and actions but probably not..

However, China’s Foreign Ministry said the U.S. should not defend Taiwan independence, Reuters reported.
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/23/biden-says-us-willing-to-use-force-to-defend-taiwan.html

And, of course, less than 15 mins later, Biden's handlers walked back Biden's comments..

Which begs the question..

Who is in charge??

Biden??? Or Biden's handlers??

And nuked the Democrat Party while he was at it.. :D

"Elections have consequences"

Who are the extremists? Democrats refuse to say if they'd put any limits on abortion.

At least we don't have that problem here..

At least Weigantians are CLEAR that restrictions on baby killing are valid and necessary...

So, there's that... :D

Democrats once had an advantage of 1.5 million voters; today, it’s down by almost two-thirds. The reason? They're pursuing policies at odds with the values of many voters, writes Jennifer Stefano.

As I have said repeatedly...

Democrats are their own worst enemies..

I want to know YOUR opinion..

Is it the same as the link's???

Or do you have your own opinion??

Enquiring minds want to know.. :D

So, you are saying it's nothing to worry about??

Can I quote you on that when Democrats AGAIN want to shut down the country??

https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/now-monkeypox

How can ANYONE believe ANYTHING Biden says when Biden's handlers walk back Biden's claims constantly???

And to think people STILL believe that Biden is actually calling the shots.. :D

Well, THAT's going to end well.. :^/

Here we go again!! :^/

Democrats need more pandemic hysteria... :eyeroll:

OK.. If that's the argument you want to stand by...

It's the legal and scientific definition of the term...

Doesn't make you much of an American.. Or a moral person..

It doesn't make you much of an American if you can't have an different opinion and even less of one if you need the state to establishment religion over the beliefs of others...

As to the rest: if ad hominems are the core of your arguments, do you even have one?

Washington Post admits 'voting is surging in Georgia' despite previous reports, claims about voter suppression

The Post's editorial board previously claimed that the law made voting 'harder'
https://www.foxnews.com/media/washington-post-voting-georgia-voter-suppression

Boy, don't Democrats sure have egg all over their faces now, eh!?? :D

What *IS* it about today's Democrats that they are ALWAYS losing??? :D

JUST as ridiculous as your claim that a male toddler's that he wants to be a girl should ALSO be validated and accepted..

What do you do when the male toddler decides he wants to be a bird and wants to jump off a cliff??

Do you accept that as valid and let them jump??

Of course you don't.. That would be silly and ridiculous..

JUST as ridiculous as validating the claims of those sick with Gender Dysphoria..

but the idea that behavioral abnormality can by definition make someone "sick" is demonstrably false.

And if we were talking about a BEHAVIORAL abnormality, you would have a point..

But we're not, so you don't..

Gender Dysphoria is not a BEHAVIORAL abnormality.. It's a mental health abnormality.. It's a mental sickness that needs to be cured...

If it weren't, then people could claim they are Klingons or dogs and you would have that claim be accepted as factual and valid??

SERIOUSLY??!!???

Where does it end??

"Oh I have a mental health sickness where I must eat human flesh.. And you have to accept that because yer Democrats"

Do you see how completely and utterly inane your position is??

Great company ya'all keep.. :^/

Baby killing is going to be illegal in CIVILIZED states..

You Democrats can kill all the babies you want in your uncivilized states..

OK.. If that's the argument you want to stand by...

Doesn't make you much of an American.. Or a moral person..

But that's your claim, so... :eyeroll:

Fourteenth Amendment, Section 1

But there IS something in there about persons have the right to LIFE, liberty and the pursuit of happiness..

And NO PERSON shall be deprived of life without due process..

And DUE PROCESS is **NOT** a Casey Anthony deciding that having a kid is just too inconvenient..

And, please don't give me that line about the baby not being a person..

According to SCIENCE, the baby IS a human being..

Killing a baby a week before birth is morally or ethically NO DIFFERENT from killing a baby a week AFTER birth..

Do you agree with that??

How do you interpret that?

In what context??

Is the right to privacy a right that is retained by the people?

Not if the people are killing other people..

"Sorry officer.. You can't question me about that murder because I have a right to privacy."

It doesn't work like that..

Nobody had to transform the right to vote or the abolition of slavery into something political. When social structures make one group powerful and another group oppressed, they're inherently political. As psychiatrist Thomas Szasz once noted, most alleged mental illness is just an excuse to take power from people whose behavior we don't like. That doesn't necessarily make it useless or invalid, but the idea that behavioral abnormality can by definition make someone "sick" is demonstrably false.

And, if there were "oppressed people" in the here and now you would have an argument.

But there's not so you don't..

The ninth amendment to the US Constitution: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

How do you interpret that?

This is the absolute LAST place on earth you should be on your wife's b-day ... unless it is to enjoy the music.

I'm very disappointed ... but, I know, "you don't really care for music, do you" ...

No matter. Have a great day, anyways!

Early demands from the National School Boards Association to the White House included calling for the deployment of the Army National Guard and the military police to monitor school board meetings, according to an early draft letter the organization's independent review released Friday.

In contrast to the final version, the draft of the NSBA letter said, "We ask that the Army National Guard and its Military Police be deployed to certain school districts and related events where students and school personnel have been subjected to acts and threats of violence."

Yet protesting at SCOTUS Justices' residents with their kids present is perfectly acceptable.. :eyeroll:

NSBA letter to Biden, which called protesting parents 'domestic terrorists,' more extreme in its early stages
https://www.foxnews.com/media/nsba-letter-called-national-guard-military-deployed

Not only are Democrats pushing the social issue as a POLITICAL issue, they want to make it a MILITANT issue as well..

i didn't ignore it, i answered it, and for propriety's sake i'll answer it again.

Apologies for the error.. I must have missed it..

gender non-conformity isn't a political agenda, it's a social identity.

Which Democrats have turned into a political agenda..

"Social" identity... "Social" Justice Warriors??

You see the pattern??

It's like saying racism isn't a political agenda..

It IS because Democrats have made it so..

Every "social" aspect of American society has been turned into a political agenda by Democrats..

Gender Dysphoria is a mental health sickness that needs to be CURED..

Not validated..

I asked JL this question but he ignored it..

i didn't ignore it, i answered it, and for propriety's sake i'll answer it again. gender non-conformity isn't a political agenda, it's a social identity. not too long ago they sent people to mental institutions for being gay or trans. now they don't, and putting teachers in jail for treating that fact honestly won't reverse the trend, it'll just make more decent human beings not want to be teachers.

of putting the content there herself. as i said, it's not unheard of for people to get their computers hacked by criminals of all sorts. as i also said, if she's the one who put the stuff there and did so on purpose, she deserves what she gets.

As I said.. It's not an OCCUPATIONAL issue..

then fox news should quit bringing the profession of the perp into the headlines, unless they did the crime in their professional capacity.

as horrified as i'd be to know one of the people i worked with was a sex criminal, i'd be equally horrified of myself being painted with the same brush.

JL

You mean like Democrats have been doing with their DEFUND, DEMORALIZE, DEMONIZE THE POLICE agenda..

You mean like that???

Transsexual pioneer criticizes modern trans activists, says they're indoctrinating kids: 'This isn't a game'

Buck Angel, a transexual man, says 'our community is failing our community'
https://www.foxnews.com/health/transsexual-pioneer-criticizes-modern-trans-activists-indoctrinating-kids

This is blatantly and factually wrong to be indoctrinating kids so young with the Democrat agenda..

And, I *KNOW* that ya'all agree with me because if it was a Right Wing agenda that kids were being indoctrinated with, ya'all would be as horrified as I would be...

It's all about the Democrat agenda..

Seven books that show NYC is pushing transgenderism, LGBTQ+ curriculum to kids as young as kindergarten

New York City's Department of Education has a series of book recommendations focusing on transgender children
https://www.foxnews.com/media/top-7-radical-left-books-new-york-city-universak-mosaic-curriculum

Like the CRT claim, it's factually accurate that this gender-bending garbage is being foisted on our youngest children..

The day that the US throws the baby killing law on the trash heap of history where it belongs.. :D

I'll post it as soon as it comes down.. :D

Looking forward to it..

Looks like Jean Claude is way over her head...

“So, look, I think we encourage those who have done very well — right? — especially those who care about climate change, to support a fairer tax — tax code that doesn’t change — that doesn’t charge manufacturers’ workers, cops, builders a higher percentage of their earnings; that the most fortunate people in our nation — and not let the — that stand in the way of reducing energy costs and fighting this existential problem, if you think about that as an example, and to support basic collective bargaining rights as well. Right? That’s also important. But look, it is — you know, by not — if — without having a fairer tax code, which is what I’m talking about, then all — every — like manufacturing workers, cops — you know, it’s not fair for them to have to pay higher taxes than the folks that — who are — who are — who are not paying taxes at all or barely have.”
-White House Press Spokesperson

Say what now?? :eyeroll:

Except cops aren't fighting for the right to groom children with psychologically harmful gender-bending issues...

Democrats are...

As I said.. It's not an OCCUPATIONAL issue..

It's a political/ideological issue...

The GOOD news is that more and more states are following Florida's example and enacting parental rights and anti-groomer laws....

Yeah, so when Netflix is making a movie about a gay couple falling in love and adopting a trans teenager, your right-wing workers will have to do their jobs, or they are fired! No “it’s against my beliefs to treat people equally and fairly if I disagree with their lifestyle” will be tolerated.

Oh quit yer whining.. You lost....

Get over it already.. :D

Lemme ask ya this.

If schools as a whole were pushing Right Wing agendas, would you be so quick to tell parents to butt out??

I asked JL this question but he ignored it..

I am sure you will as well..

Which is an answer in itself, eh? :D

The simple fact is, it's ALL about the anti-America agenda that Democrats are foisting on our kids..

THAT is the SOLE reason that you claim that parents shouldn't be involved in their kids education..

It's just like ya'all supporting illegal immigration SOLELY because illegal immigrants vote Democrat..

If illegal immigrants voted GOP, then ya'all would want the southern border locked up tight...

It's ALL about the anti-America agenda.. No other consideration comes into play.. Certainly not the welfare and well being of the children..

:eyeroll:

But, you have no excuse for spreading false information about cheating - you should understand very well how votes are counted, in your own state and others.

I simply post the FACTS...

And the FACTS prove that there was massive fraud before and after the election..

NO ONE here can push the BS claim that they were simply ignorant of the vote process and how it works..

You are dealing with pretty intelligent people here in Weigantia.

Which is EXACTLY what I say... Intelligent people who declared with ONE VOICE that President Trump had one the election.. That it was over.. That Biden was "DELUSIONAL" if he thought he could actually win...

Which makes it so hard to understand why you continue to resort to all the "2020 election fraud

And yet, NO ONE here has addressed all the facts that I have laid out..

Why is that???

Because there are no facts to counter my facts..

Facts that lead towards one sole inarguable conclusion..

Biden's "win" was a fraud...

Pure and simple..

I’m ready for teacher’s unions across this country to stand up and say, “If a parent doesn’t approve of the curriculum that we teach, they can always pull their child out of our schools and homeschool them themselves. We are not telling you how to earn better tips spinning on your stripper pole, so you don’t tell us how we are to teach the children in our districts!”

So.. You agree with Terry McAwful that parents should have no say in what their kids are taught....

OK.. Please push that agenda and encourage and cajole other Democrats to push that anti-parent agenda..

PLEASE.. :D

Tell me, how can one call for others to commit acts of violent extremism without being responsible for the acts of violent extremism that result from that call?

You realize that you are making my argument for me, right??

No... Because cops aren't trying to indoctrinate kids with sexual deviancy and psychologically harmful gender issues..

Democrats are..

It's not a occupational issue..

It's a political agenda issue..

that's a horrible allegation to make against a teacher. if she is actually guilty of perpetrating child pornography then that individual deserves whatever she gets, but what if she's innocent?

Innocent of what, exactly??

She had child porn on her private accounts..

I don't believe "innocence" is any kind of consideration.

But maybe I am missing something??

. just another potshot at the teaching profession.

Nope.. Just another factual assessment of Democrats in the teaching profession..

Pleasant dreams, everyone!

Sympathy For The Devil

You've expressed great disappointment with Joe Biden, saying essentially that Putin's invasion was somehow preventable by Joe (or anyone not named Putin.) This is not true and here's why:

Russia has been invaded 50 times in the last 500 years. It's country is vast and flat and difficult to defend.

Since Catherine the Great Russia has sought to acquire and maintain compliant buffer states around it, with the Warsaw Pact being the most recent iteration of this. Centuries now. That's why the fall of the USSR was so tragic to Vladdy Putin.

Like the rest of Europe, Russians stopped having kids after WW II and they are on a demographic (population) death spiral as we speak. So this is literally the last time that Russia will have enough young men to try to reestablish some of those Warsaw Pact buffer states.

That means that even if Joe had:

1- Refused NATO membership to Ukraine, and,

2- Disarmed Ukraine and allowed Putin to station his troops in Ukraine

...anything for peace, right?

Putin right now would have just invaded the Baltic States, Poland and Romania instead of Ukraine. Because it's still Russia's last opportunity to to push back on NATO.

So while Joe hasn't been perfect as President this war is simply not on him, K?

i mean really, what's the point in posting stories like these?

i'll tell you why not, because governor desantis doesn't want to piss off the cops, but can pick on teachers with impunity.

Dammit, Josh, you are doing exactly what you are complaining is being done to teachers — acting as if the entire profession is a monolith based on the sins of one member. Don’t fall into the trap of over-simplifying the problems we face in this country!
