Either Way…

If this sign is a Democrat campaign sign…

…(and it’s likely not, since it includes none of the mandatory “Paid For By…” subtitles) then I’d love the DFL to get honest and bring it here.

And if it’s a false flag GOP parody?

Then I hope someone brings it here even more

    I’m loath to wade into this debate, and I’m sure I’ll regret it, but this is literally how representative democracy is supposed to work. We the people (parents) elect representatives (school boards) to make decisions on our behalf.

    Don’t like the decisions? Vote ’em out.

    Yes, Emery, parents should just ignore the obvious reality that the school board is bought & paid for by leftist elites and the NEA, and humbly accept their decisions, even when it’s to ignore the fact that one parent’s daughter has been raped, and the school responded by forwarding the rapist on to another school where he raped another person.

    Emery, there’s a reason the “right to petition” is in the 1st Amendment, and there’s a reason that school board meetings and such are public. The Founders knew that politicians need to have H*** rain down on them if they get out of line.

    loath to wade into this debate…. I can’t recall that Emery has ever actually debated anything. Thrown shit? Check. Made nasty ad homs? Check. Lied? Check. Made unfounded and unsourced assertions? Check. I don’t think the term debate means what you think it does.

    Had a conversation this summer with someone who was excited that people were planning to “take over” a local school board so parents “could have more say.”

    I asked by “take over” did she mean run for school board positions en masse and then win election? Because that’s the way one would do that if one weren’t a criminal.

    She was not amused.

    What I find funny about these self important, elitist “educators”, is that they used to literally beg for parents to join the PTA in the children’s schools. During the entire time my kids were in school, either my wife or I would attend the meetings. We noticed that with each passing year, the number of parents attending dwindled, not by individuals, but by threes and fours. Their kids were still attending those schools, so what happened?

    I seem to recall that children educated behind the Iron Curtain were encouraged to rat out their parents for Wrongthink. I remember this being considered a bad thing.

    That’s not how Representative Democracy works.

    Pure Democracy – everybody gets a vote – becomes unweildy above a certain number of participants.

    Representative Democracy – one person is elected to cast a single vote on behalf of all people in her district – makes it easier for government to get things done (a dubious advantage, if you ask me).

    There’s nothing about Representative Democracy which prohibits Town Hall meetings for the office-holder to gauge constituent opinion on a topic. Doesn’t mean the office-holder is required to vote as his constituents desire, but that’s the way to avoid recall elections and primary challenges.

    And there’s nothing about Representative Democracy that prohibits constituents from informing the office-holder of their desires, loudly, publicly, repeatedly. That’s why lobbyists exist. That’s why public meetings have an Open Forum section. That’s why stalkers follow Congresswomen into the bathroom – all part of the process, according to the Brandon administration.

    People don’t get elected to the school board because they’re experts at pedagogy (no, no, E, calm down, we’re not talking about that. This is about teaching). School Boards should still listen to their constituents – the children’s parents – or face their displeasure for refusing to do so. Calling the police to help cover up your crimes is not Representative Democracy.

    The School and Park Boards are the entry level avenue for political types. They get to run in races with barely any interest, and sidle into office in an election that maybe gets 100 votes cast. The “candidate” isn’t interested in the race, either, other than to get a foothold into the machine. Once there they can use their “mandate”, and the impression they’ve accomplished something, to act like a mover and a shaker. Kind of like that deputy-chair of the Sartell School Board that wanted to tell the city what it should have (or not have) on its police cars, or the tin-pots on the Hennepin Co Park Board. You get in, kick up a little dust to get some name recognition, then move on to a bigger race. They are not in the office because they’re interested in education, or the parks, but for the opportunity to apply their political ideology to whatever issue does come up – and then scrabble for the next office that opens up that hardly anyone votes for. After awhile they’ve got themselves insinuated in the system and when you ask how they got there, folks just say, “Him? I don’t know, he’s always been here.”
