    “This is just ridiculous, it’s got to stop somewhere. I mean, the governments, the city officials, have got to do something about this. I’m pulling my kids out for the rest of the week at least, if not going homeschool for the rest of the year because this is just… it makes me scared to have my kids at school at all … Something has got to give,” she said.

    I have to wonder if destroying public schools is the point or just a welcome side effect for these domestic terrorists?

      This would explain why their governor is still on record saying he’s going to vote for Trump. I bet he doesn’t mind having an excuse to send a bunch of state troopers and surveillance tech into a city during an election year either.

      The right has been trying to destroy schools since they were founded hundreds of years ago. Secular, public education is an anathema to the racist and religious indoctrination required to maintain right wing communities.

      This is very much a two birds, one stone moment for their agenda.

    Maybe someone should be reminding everyone this is Trump and his fascist regime doing this. If they had an actual platform other than fear-porn his propaganda machines wouldn’t have been airing this crazy story based off one Facebook post by a woman who said she made it up based on something she heard from someone basically in a game of “telephone”. Then Trump wouldn’t have seen it on Fox and repeated it at the debate, and now everyday since.
