Perfect example of why it’s better for ballots to be secret.

Small progress, and it addresses only the symptoms, not the illness, but still:

Fayetteville Reporter has a piece that the Superintendent has been made aware of the video and is looking into it. Also, “… schools Superintendent Bill Harrison took an unusual step Friday of making his own YouTube video, in which he reads a statement saying he was “shocked” and “disturbed” by what he saw. He promises to take “appropriate action” following an investigation.”

He also called the [military] parent of the student in the video and apologized. Sounds like an honorable, sane man. A reminder that as bad as our public school system can be (at its worst), there are still a majority of teachers and administrators working to do the right thing.

They are underminded by the likes of Diatha D. Harris.

Both my children went through public school. The “re-education camp” took place at the dinner table EVERY NIGHT…

My grandson got out of public schools three years ago, thank God.

We homeschool.
Videos such as this reinforce what was a difficult decision.

Sickening.

Reminds me too much of this short story by James Clavell. Only we don’t have to wait for someone to re-educate us, we’re doing it to ourselves.
