National Education Association ^ | 11/9/2016 | Cindy Long

Posted on 11/09/2016 11:33:44 AM PST by mdittmar

It’s time to make a mass market computer game and a major motion picture, where the hidden monster is actually disguised as a public school teacher. Couldn’t you just picture the frightened youngster pouring out his fears and doubts to the only one he can trust, and then having that guardian figure transform into the ravenous monster he really is? It could be done in a Walking Dead, Silence of the Lambs or Lord of the Rings style, any of those would work.

I ran into some of this today, people asking if they needed to worry what will happen to them.

People have absolutely no common sense any more.

Thank you.

The left / liberals depend upon lies being sold to idiots and fools.

It works on many of them.

Maybe if you were were not so busy terrifying them with political agitprop they would not need reassurance.

One way to drain the swamp is make these clowns keep their politics out of the class room. Did not use to be an issue but in the age of the bain dead SJW, it is an issue.

Libtards ALWAYS project their own inner most evil desires onto others. Once a person understands this, it’s easy to know what a libtard would like to do to others.

Yes, yes, it's all true. Now it can be told that Trump has a secret plan to eviscerate all minority and LGBTXYZ students and sell their body organs to the Chinese for microwave lunches. It's a tough old world out there.

I'm not even sorry for these drama queens. Stupid should hurt.

Milo for press secretary.

I'll second that, just for pure entertainment value.

If we dont clean the rot out of the public school system, our victory will be very temporary. We have GOT to stop the indoctrination that has gone on into PC, loony leftist propaganda for the past 30 years. How to do it!

I’m a big advocate of homeschooling, our kids were both homeschooled and private Christian schooled at different points. But it’s not realistic that the portion of the country that most needs independent teaching in schools will have access to that - without cleaning up the school system and those that control it. I have no idea how.

I think this should be at or near the top of President Trumps agenda.

One boy with Autism was crying because he saw Trump mocking a disabled person.

No, he wasn't. The reporter in question didn't have those mannerisms.

Trump used that mannerism to mock people that were indecisive. He used it multiple times, including for Ted Cruz.

A teenager who is gay is afraid of what he will do to the LGBT community.

Unlike Hillary, whose own staff admitted she privately opposed gay marriage, Trump wasn't the candidate taking money from countries that stone homosexuals to death.

Muslim students are asking if they’re going to be safe;

If you aren't an Islamist extremist, the only danger you face is from Islamist extremists that you don't report to the FBI.

Latino students are asking if they will be deported.

If you are in the US illegally, you should be worried about that. If you went back to your country of origin and apply for a permanent US visa, you can get in line with everyone and put yourself on a path to citizenship.

“Safe” “Hate”

These are words that the left cleverly twist into a weapon.

Way past time to disable this somehow.

How many of these kids place value on having a thousand fake facebook ‘friends’?

Snowflakes by definition must remain in the cold, otherwise they’d self destruct.

Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

Wouldn’t surprise me at all if Trump were to include Peter Thiel in his administration somewhere.
