Let's call this the "Hollow Man" gambit because it's so lacking in substance as to be barely a silhouette.

Oh, and regarding the value of teaching for "factory" jobs?? Those jobs are disappearing faster than I can blink (see automation), so you apparently want them to be dead-enders.

What do you mean has a problem with it? If a student doesn't believe in equal rights, equal opportunity or equal justice they should be told they are wrong. Isn't school where kids are supposed to learn history and civics?

You’re probably right. Pops probably would have finished his doctorate at Columbia if is wasn’t for me. The guilt is hard to live with.

Well it certainly isn't at home. Dumbfucks don't teach their kids shit. They certainly promote being ignorant though.

Where the fuck did they get that from.

Drawing unsupported conclusion are you, how enlightened.

Jump on the bandwagon of unsupported conclusions.

Teachers have a responsibility to maintain the integrity of their classroom by limiting the dissemination of baseless lies and opinions. So i think they have the right to moderate the discussion, the mute button works.

I find any school system promoting or championing a political movement scary.

Equality is a political movement?!??!? WTAFF?!?!?!?

So if a kid starts denying in history class that the genocide of jews et al in WW 2 happened and is muted then you’d be up in arms?

Or it just because you taught your special snowflake to react with hate to the message of BLM and cant stomach his being muted?

He pointed out that BLM has had some extreme rhetoric and bad actors, as have the Trumptarts, and that conflating the bad actions of one group as worse than the other is somewhat disingenuous.

Is burning some innocent store owners business down, any worse than busting up the Capital?
At least the insurrectionists went after the powers that be, not some defenseless civilians.

To be clear, he prefaced his remarks by saying both sides are completely in the wrong in their extreme fringes.

I would be equally disturbed if a teacher was some MAGA hat wearing fool, or promoted any religion.
Educators should not take sides in the classroom.
What you believe on your time is fine with me.

So what happened? I’m having trouble with your assertion about ‘promoting’.

Storming the seat of government is different.

Your kid needs a slap.

So do you.

Is burn a police station any different?

Oh, if you ever raised a hand to my child I would kill you quicker than you could blink.
You fucking loser.

Furthermore you should be banned for advocating violence towards someone’s child.
That is utterly unforgivable.

So you think that BLM promoted burning down police stations and businesses? Where/when did they do that?

I was suggesting your kid needed a slap by their parent.

**Kinnikinnick** · 01-19-2021, 09:06 PM

Maybe his kid should get a gold star for voicing his opinions in class.

Bullshit, you’re a smart mouth fuck wad.
I’d get a kick out of watching my 6’2” 220# 15 year old beat you to a bloody pulp, right after you gave him that slap.

What’s sad is you aren’t man enough to apologize for your stupid remark.

I have never laid a had I any of my children in anger or as discipline. In fact I have taught them to walk away from a fight if possible. But if anyone lays a hand on them, do not hesitate to defend yourself by any means.

His BMI must be 30+. No way he is mature enough to have that much lean weight.
