What does ISD stand for? I get that it’s a school district but what is the “I?”

I’m staying away from the malls then....being in the middle of 80,000 kids.....that would be worse than catching Swine flu.

Let me see, if i was a muzzie terrorist who didn’t eat pork, a swine flu epidemic would be just the ticket to cause havoc in Infidel land.

This is looking more and more like bio terrorism.

Of the most rudimentary kind

I mean I know the American sheeple will buy just about anything, but this is beyond coincidence.

Thanks. I had no idea. It’s probably a good call due to the large number of Mexicans in that area. What can I say? It’s just not an easy thing - we are talking about children.

I have been praying that the schools would close for a week or so. I talked to a nice lady at work today that just returned from Mexico last weekend (family reunion).

People have to be more careful.

Technically, “Independent”.

These days, also “Insolvent”.

Texas is different from most parts of the country in that school districts are typically independent of municipal or county governments and all have ‘ISD’ in their name. In fact, I think that there is only one municipal school district in the entire state.

I was referring to the fact that there are not a lot of pigs in raghead land, thus the spreading of the virus would not be a problem for their livestock.

This could be a bio weapon spread by the ragheads, surely you can't deny that possibility.
