that’s the issue. we aren’t allowed to question public education.

you can loot a store then burn it down to protest injustice against people to whom the left is sympathetic, that’s ok. but if you question people to whom the left is sympathetic, the feds might come for you. that’s where that party is right now.

can’t imagine why i yanked my kids out of public school.

anyone making death threats, even disturbing the peace or trespassing. should be arrested and prosecuted, and you know i’d say that.

i saw CNN labeling a woman a domestic terrorist, who accused each BOE member of abusing children. that may be exaggerated rhetoric ( or it may be 100% accurate, according to some doctors), but it doesn’t come close to being domestic terrorism.

how widespread are threats and actual acts of violence? it’s not a federal issue unless the states refuse to investigate ( like liberal states failed to crack down on BLM rioters).

Not sure of the exact number but it's now a serious nation wide phenomenon. It also certainly could be a federal issue if federal laws are being broken. The definition of a domestic terrorist under the Patriot Act is very broad and certainly could apply to some of the more violent offenders, violation of federal mail statutes etc...

More serious than the race riots of 2020? Because we didn't get the feds involved in that. Have BOW protesters killed more people, done more damage, than those idiots?

Are you really that ignorant?
Did you miss what the Trump administration did in Portland?
That the internal reports of federal agencies said that the political appointees within DHS falsely tried to create Antifa operations in Portland
More than 25 Million people participated in BLM protests
Very few had any destruction

January 6th had a far higher percentage of people who did violent destructive acts, they must be heroes

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

they weren't heroes and it was over in a couple of hours with nothing burnt to the ground and most will face charges if they broke the law.....I guess the left has more activists, longer tantrums and are more thorough in their trespassing with less accountability
