The out of control gop strikes again in Oklahoma, as if they don't have enough problems already with schools.

Here you are.

Yes agreed we should make public schools more like private schools so that everyone has the opportunity of an education like you instead of just people willing to spend the money to put the kids in Catholic School.

Now you see the problem.
I've known the problem for years, tell our politicians who want to stick their noses into what can and can't be taught and give the school system more money. Our kids are the future of America, do we want to start dumbing them down in grade one? Look at this administration and all you see are unqualified people running things so don't blame the dumbing down of America on the Democrats.
 
No it's not Joe Biden bad it's Joe Biden was bad because he let the third world invade our country. Donald Trump is just the person at the bottom of the cliff picking up the pieces of the wreckage after Biden drove us off.
Hire more immigration judges and have more immigration courts. You guys make it sound like Biden was at the border handing out sandwiches and cokes to those wanting to come to America.

The NEA exists almost exclusively to fund the Democratic party and to strong arms schools and to not firing shit teachers. This is communism in effect that's a leftist thing the idea would be to dissolve the nea.
Our kids are the future of America,
And why makes them puppets of political agenda?

That's what we've been doing for decades.

And education is run by almost exclusively leftists now you see the problem or you're going to be blind and pretend I'm digging a hole or something.
 
No that's evening the playing field. That's not supporting somebody saying we will get out of your way isn't offering them extra help because you think there are beneath you.

If you only (rhetorically) support desegregation because you think it didn't require any "extra help," I've got some bad news for you.

Good night, I can't listen to you any longer today.
 
Hire more immigration judges
Immigration judges are not talking about immigrants we're talking about illegal aliens. People who refuse to immigrate who came into the country illegally which cannot be immigration it's invasion.
and have more immigration courts.
To handle illegal aliens why there is no judgment no court necessary if you entered the country illegally you're out never to return.
You guys make it sound like Biden was at the border handing out sandwiches and cokes to those wanting to come to America.
He was. You're talking about immigration judges this has nothing to do with immigration. Illegal aliens are Invaders they need to be removed that's all the process do determine if they got here illegally and if they did out you go never to return. That's it.

I wasn't alive in the sixties so I didn't see what you people were doing to black students when they decided to come into the schools I went to school in the 90s and there were no armed guards walking students in on the school I went to I was in the minority as a "white person".

So I get you people through with it when your segregation was ended but you learned how stupid it was in the first place.
 
No DEI is about segregation. Dei holds that various non-white people are inferior and cannot compete so they need extra support.

It's a way for white savior leftists to deny people of color the ability to earn something. To keep them on the plantation as it were.

Straw man version of DEI.

It isn’t a law. It is voluntary actions taken by companies to improve their workforce and workplace.

No it's what d e i is. It is officially saying that non-white people are lesser than white people and need help because they can't earn it on their own.

It's particularly sinister form of white supremacy too take away an entire races ability to earn things on their own.

So? Affirmative action was law and that was racism. A bunch of ACLU quinsman decided black people were too stupid to achieve things on their own and needed government assistance.

Who cares that racism isn't the law it's still racist.

It is not the law and it was not put in place to give jobs to those who didn’t qualify. Your straw man version of it is false. DEI is not equivalent to racism nor was Affirmative Action. Affirmative Action was put in place to combat actual discrimination against black people in employment opportunities. It wouldn’t have been necessary without this actual discrimination taking place. Neither one of these things ever discriminated against anyone.

Actual white supremacy about falsely claiming that whites are better by dint of their skin color and all other races should just meekly accept their secondary status in white dominated society. It was whites who enslaved blacks, not the other way around. It was whites who denied equal treatment to blacks, not the other way around. Racist whites never attempted to right their wrongs against blacks, and so had to be legally made to do so. They brought all this on themselves and now cry victim when they have been the victimizers all along. Slavery is racist. Segregation is racist. Jim Crow is racist. Redlining is racist. Over incarceration is racist.
 
Oklahoma declared teachesr who want to teach in Oklahoma have to take some kind of fealty test from the gop to teach there. If that isn't bad enough now they want this...

Schools in Oklahoma are being warned they risk “violating the law” if they don’t establish a Turning Point USA chapter on campus​


Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters unveiled the proposal on Tuesday and warned schools would be punished if they refused to take part.

Let me repeat...the gop does not govern, they rule and this is just one more example. Sad, no?


Of all the MAGA shit that's out there, a lot of it is just annoying, disappointing, and maybe, at times, mildly infuriating. But this is the shit that sometimes keeps me up at night: the fanatic.
 
It's a great place to live.

Turkey a block from my house this afternoon. About a dozen, the others had already scurried into the brush.

We have friends that live in New Hampshire that send us pictures of turkeys in their yard all the time, yet they also live in a state with high incomes, low poverty, low crime, and great schools.

Point being, it is possible to be well governed and still have turkeys.

I live in the city so no Oklahoma turkeys for me. I do have friends with urban chicken coops though.

Nonetheless, I feel that I am not handicapped in the slightest by my local governance.

Our Governor and our soon to be resigned Education secretary are both toolbags..but neither have a meaningful impact on my personal life.
 
No you've had the run of the schools teaching kids that black people are inferior and need something like affirmative action to succeed in anything it's time to put an end to that. I'm the best way to do that is offer a different viewpoint.

You are terrified of it because it threatens your white supremacy.

They just want to challenge it. It will be forced out once everyone realizes how stupid it is and that's what you're afraid of.


Not taking someone else's inventory at all.

It's amazing how you can get inside someone's head and KNOW what motivates them without even having met them or even knowing their names.

MAGA!
 
They should just ban teachers' unions. All public unions for that matter. Corrupt af.

It doesn't require all that. Actions speak for themselves.
