If it isn't it should be.
I’m not sure what the genesis of this is since the video didn’t show the “triggering” action.... but I’m sure glad I don’t live in that community.
I used a dogsled team to get home from the maternity ward after my birth. I had to cross the Rockies - and without lunch money.
Kids have it so easy these days.
He was but many of the aminals. . err. . .’adults’. . .got impatient and demanded all children off the bus NOW, regardless of whether the driver verified who might be taking the child. .stranger, kidnapper, molester, psycho ex-spouse wanting to take the child to Iraq,. . .etc.
“Jessica Jimenez”. The recorder and no doubt major instigator of fact. Bet she also has bottled blonde hair. The name says all you needed to know about this incident. It’s not in their genes or culture to be “patient”. It’s everything for their goddam-d stinking anchor babies and they want it YESTERDAY. Latinas will fu_k America over every time. If you want to know who rules your life find the person you are never ever permitted to criticize.
My county has 15 school disticts. One of them has anacted a new policy of NEVER permitting kindergarten students off the bus unless there is a parent waiting.
Kindergartners not met by a parent will be returned to the school where the parents can pick them up.
How do we know the bus driver didn’t. It appears the ‘adults’ got impatient with the process and went nuts.
First day of school not knowing who belongs to who, each child must be paired. . .yeah. ..takes a while, whereas as the year gives on the driver knows the children and knows who is picking up the child then the process moves apace.
No, it hasn’t!
Quinsigamond is the name of the lake near the school. It means ‘Pickerel fishing Place’ in Nipmic.
Well, I'm not very demanding because I'm basically pretty laid back, live rather simply and don't have or want much.
But I am the PRO SE DEFENDANT FROM HELL. A couple of decades ago I was on the wrong end of a civil lawsuit, when my company (of which I was one of the directors) became insolvent and went into receivership (state version of bankruptcy).
The court-appointed receiver promptly turned around and filed suit against all nine of the officers and directors including me, demanding joint-and-several judgment for $45 million in claimed damages (treble damages due to what he claimed was fraud).
Although it was terrifying and I was fighting for my financial life, I strangely got off on being my own lawyer. With nine defendants, there were a lot of pleadings going around, so I had a lot of boilerplate language to lift.
I not only filed a counterclaim in answer to the receiver's complaint, but also filed a plaintiff lawsuit PERSONALLY against the receiver, his staff, his law firm and the individual lawyers assigned to represent his office in the case.
Did I think I would win my lawsuit against the receiver et al? No. But it enabled me to drag them all personally as defendants into a whole new litigation process, which they would have lost unless they answered all my motions. Sometimes I would send motions that they had to answer, and then not even bother to file them. (They couldn't do the same to me because being PRO SE I was not bound by the rules of behavior to which lawyers are held.)
I was able to cost them a lot of money. More important, I was able to dump a lot of stuff into the public record that the receiver didn't want brought out in public. And they couldn't use the main lawyer against me who was originally handling the litigation, because I had named her as a defendant in my personal lawsuit, and filed a motion to have her removed from my case.
It took me two years, during which I wrote all my own pleadings and caused as much trouble as I possibly could for the receiver and his lawyers. It was kind of fun, actually. Fun and scary, which is usually something you only experience at a theme park. Although I dreaded going to the mailbox in fear of what horrors would await me from the receiver's lawyer, I always made sure to put a LOVE stamp on the envelope every time I sent a motion or opposition to a receiver's motion.
But finally, the receiver cried uncle and approached me with a settlement offer. I got out of joint-and-several liability for a potential judgment of up to $45 million, by paying a settlement figure of only -- wait for it . . . TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. I did not have to admit to any wrong-doing, and walked out with my credit rating completely in tact.
I probably could have gotten out for less, but it was low enough that I could deal with it and I was eager to get the whole business behind me.
And that' why I'm the PRO SE DEFENDANT FROM HELL!!
I’ll see your pickerel fishing place and raise you a “Washington Redskins”
Te Democrat Party and the Supreme Court of the United States laid the foundation for this incident.
It used to be that most kids were in walking distance of their schools.
Chuckles...ok - you got me (you gotta love the “love” stamps - that’s great).
Congrats on your settlement.
Me and a group of friends always walked to school, taking a short cut through some woods. We refused to ride the bus, not for safety reasons, but reasons of preference. Walking was perfectly safe, in general, in that time and place.
When I was in kindergarten, and this only goes back to the 1960s, there was none of this "matching kids up with parents" BS. We just got off the bus and walked however many blocks it was to get to our house. I might have skinned a knee here or there tripping over a curbing because I was "Napoleon Dynamite" nerdy as a child, but I survived.
When we put "nanny state" government in charge of things, chaos results.
I like the cut of your jib!
Looks like a weird incident, but the driver was absolutely right to control the pickup of little kids. Pretty feral group of parents, but this is Massachusetts, so they’re presumably democrats behaving as democrats do.
The schools have a fiduciary duty to ensure the children leave with people that have the right to take them.
From her FB page where she posted the video: “I only care about them kids seeing there crying face non of it was called for ..i did nothing until she started up the bus thats when i was scared.”
from what I can tell the district requires kindergartners to be matched w/ parent/guardian/authorized person to let them off the bus then the rest of the students for that stop. They apparently didn’t to to wait.
