Renters pay the property tax of the landlord.

If one is opposed to public school to the extent that you remove your children from the system, why would you let your child represent the school you oppose by being on their football team?

Yeah, they do but they don’t know that.

Orangedog must be a renter and not understand how city, county, state and Federal tax money supports public school systems.

No, Orangedog is a homeowner who is sick and tired of the fat suburban welfare queens expecting him to pay to entertain their kids. I mean, if people like me weren't paying for their welfare they might actually have to spend some more time with the little bastards and we can't have that, can we?!

Do you agree, then, that homeschoolers should not be paying school taxes to educate and feed public school kids THEY didn't bring into the world?

So long as I'm not paying to entertain and recreate either groups' kids, yes, I'm good with that.

“Orangedog must be a renter and not understand how city, county, state and Federal tax money supports public school systems.”

And of course all renters are stupid.

Lordy.

I see you probably learned comprehension at a public school. We homeschoolers ALREADY pay for this stuff. So do you. But. Too many school systems say we can't allow our children to play with the children who ARE ALL PAYING FOR THIS ALREADY! Get it now?

Yeah, I'm getting it. I'm seeing a bunch of welfare queens who want their fair share of the government cheese. Make sure you gets you obama phone, too!

Either home-schooling is separate or it is not. If this is allowed, then it is an opening to more court-ordered decisions that will NOT be liked by parents.

No no no...let these fools learn the hard way. Just like with marriage, they beg Big Brother for favors with other peoples' money and then get all pissy when Big Brother starts attaching strings to those favors. Maybe when they start getting surprise home inspections from department of education SWAT teams they'll pick up the Clue Phone.

Parents will have to pay the same fees and public school kids, so the will be opening their own damn wallets.

Get back to me when those public school and home school welfare queens are staying out of my wallet to fund playtime.

For the record, my homeschooled children have got all their physical education outside of the public school systems that I continue to pay for.

Wow...mine did, too! Where's my welfare and free cheese?

If you do not have a child in the public school system; you shouldn’t be paying for it.

Then go do something about it and quit posting nasty comments regarding an issue that you have so clearly demonstrated that you don’t understand. Not only do homeschoolers’ taxes pay for the facilities, coaches, etc., but they will be paying out of pocket any other fees. So go ahead and stop using the USPS because it costs way more than the price of a stamp to mail a bill. Have a medical condition? Don’t get tests taken or get a prescription for it because tax dollars are taken from us to research the disorder and find the cure, a process that costs far more than private R&D. Don’t watch any sports because even professional stadiums are taxpayer funded. If you’re going to bitch about this, you may as well go all the way baby! Let us know how it goes when you stop paying your taxes.

And yet I not only have the public school soccer moms picking my pocket, but the homeschool soccer moms are joining in. They don’t want any government interference with educating their kids, but they sure don’t have a problem with government putting a gun to my head to pay for those kids to play a damned game. F***ing hypocrites.

the PUBLIC competitive team sports at the K-12 school level should be defunded from the schools and funded and placed under a city’s parks and recreation department, using facilities the schools and the parks department share and open to all kids in a town - public schooled, private schooled or home-schooled

they can still have team competitions in an all-town league with more than one team, and have an all-star team from among all the teams in town - at any particular age-group or skill level

save the schools for academics

So did you call your employer and demand he/she suspend your tax withholdings? Before posting that pic, which has nothing at all to do with this thread topic, did you take down your mailbox? If you have a professional sports team in your state, have you contacted them and demanded a refund of your tax dollars? No? Your just going to continue to post incoherent rants of you are incredibly uninformed? Mmmm kay. You just keep it up slugger.

Keep excusing all that welfare money you take so your kids can play a game. After all, it’s not welfare when YOU take it!

Or you could man-up and take one of your own guns, put it to the heads of your neighbor until they pay for your kids’ playtime. Do it yourself...don’t send the government to take it for you.

I’ll be back in an hour. I have to go mow my lawn since your lazy little brats won’t do me a solid and mow it for me for all the money that’s taken from me to fund their playtime.

As I’m a woman, 34 weeks pregnant at that, it would be rather impossible for me to “man-up.” If you have a stroke or heart attack while mowing, make sure you somehow indicate that no tax-payer funded R&D techniques or meds are to be administered to you! Also, make sure you deny EMS/fire transportation as those EMTs, medics, and firefighters are paid by somebody else’s tax dollars. In fact, don’t go to the hospital at all because you would have to use roads, which I and many others have paid for. We don’t want you using them.
