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

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

Stories are flooding social media from parents whose children are afraid of what the 2016 presidential election results might mean. One boy with Autism was crying because he saw Trump mocking a disabled person. A teenager who is gay is afraid of what he will do to the LGBT community. Muslim students are asking if they’re going to be safe; Latino students are asking if they will be deported.

These are indeed adult snowflakes. Now we know where it comes from.

Go to the link and read the comments from the teachers - looks like they all come from some 60's-70's Encounter group seminar - remember "I'm O.K., You're O.K."?

1. Man up, you little pu**y!
2. Yes, be afraid! Better yet, go back into the closet.
3. No.
4. Yes.

They’re not safe. There’s an evil Trumper just around the corner, lurking in the shadows, hiding in the grocery bag! THERE, one just grabbed a woman’s goodies, made a misogynistic remark and dashed back into the dark. WHOOSH! Another assaulted an autistic black transexual lesbian native anthropomorphian.
Teachers can’t protect you 24/7, kids. Evil Trumpers WILL get you.

You may be infected if you start:
Thinking for yourself,
using logic,
respecting authority,
It then quickly spirals into questioning where the f#$% your tax dollars go.

Oh my God!! Those F’n idiots they claim are professors and students. Sure Trump has nothing better to do than have multi colored cloth triangles made and the FEMA camp electric fences rewired along with the cattle cars being readied. What we need to do is clean the other swamp, called our educational system of these leftist fear mongers who teach to produce worthless degrees for their exuberant salaries. The students will always be safe, but are they safe from the idiots teaching them?

If he made Milo press secretary they could put the press conferences on pay per view. I’d pay to watch it.

“‘I’m Going to Reassure Them That They Are Safe’: Talking to Students After the Election”

WhoTF has given them the idea that they’re not safe? Certainly not DJT. Their ‘teachers’ and ‘parents’ are the ones putting those ideas in their mushy heads.

“NEATODAY.ORG?” Let’s do a thorough financial audit of WHO this organization is and WHERE it gets its money.

And then, let’s shut it down! DRAIN THE SWAMP!

Natural consequence of hyping Trump as evil, intentionally ramping up the fear of him in an effort to prevent his election.

It is akin to environmentalists telling kids the world is going to end if we don’t all adopt their political mandates right now, resulting in children being afraid the world will end before they are adults.

Snowflakes are flakey in the head
And just so you know they cry
Their eyes are all stained red
Those snowflakes
From their eyes
They keep crying.

Though we may do us some
Talking to their face
And they say we don’t like the way
We get things done
Expecting them to work
Those snowflakes
From their eyes
They keep crying.

But there’s one thing I know
Their butthurt they claim I must see
Won’t defeat me, it won’t be long
Till hilarity
Steps up to greet me.

Snowflakes are flakey in the head
But that doesn’t mean my eyes
Will soon be turning red
Crying’s not for me ‘cause
Their drama is like a hill of beans
They complaining
And I be like
“Neener, neener, neener!”

If children are frightened, its because of liberal lies.

The NEA ruined education. I hope Trump disbands it.

“Safe” “Hate” These are words that the left cleverly twist into a weapon. Way past time to disable this somehow.

The only way to disable it is to shut down the people at the root who purvey it (public school teachers and college professors), and places in which they are given free reign to purvey it (public schools and college campuses).

Gobsmacking the NEA is also a good place to start.

You know what you stupid dumb focks in the media made Trump out to be the boogie man hiding under their bed and now they are afraid to go back to sleep where the left wants them. So a big FU to them.

School choice is a big weapon. Ending the US Dept of Education is another big weapon. I’ve seen states do a reasonable job of administering education. Pearson’s US Dept of Ed contracts have got to go.

They have a lock on most standardized testing in the US. You can’t get a certification without going through Pearson.

A gigantic loser in all of this is going to be the US University System. It is ALL PUBLIC MONEY. Hillsdale College and College of the Ozarks are the only ones I know that don’t take public money.

You want to talk about fraud and waste?

The ones with the most to lose in this election is going to be career educators on college campuses. Ideologically, they are monolithic.

Even if the first step is means testing universities on how they get public funding, its a good first step.

USDA can take care of the school lunch program I think. From there, you don’t need Dept of Ed. Energy can go too. HUD can go. Probably ought to keep Commerce. Since we have DSHS, Department of Interior can go away too.

It is clear that the Justice Department needs to be castrated in terms of its ability to decide on its own what gets investigated and what doesn’t. Had Hillary won, I can’t imagine the damage that would have been done in that four year period. I’m not so sure the appellate courts shouldn’t have the ability to be a place you can go to unclog something like an investigation of a major pol. If not the appellate (they’re job is to look at the process and determine if there is judicial error), then maybe the circuits. They are a political quagmire, however.

Department of Transportation needs to go. Period. Traditionally, and Interior ministry has handled major elements of infrastructure. DHS is already sticking its giant nose in that - why not make the interstate highway system, air, and shipping their bailiwick? Railroads are privately owned and paid for to this day.

The thing that pisses me off is that these reactions are a direct result of Hillary and her media scaremongering. I must have seen her commercial trying to scare kids about this exact stuff 50 times.
