Most protesters demanded that Christian Enwright, a 7th Grade Science teacher accused by Kenosha Police of grooming a 12-year-old student, but some had other messages, like keeping pornography of schools.

  1. Bravo to the parents that stand up for what’s right and shine light on what’s wrong. Too many send their kids off to the government for 8 hours a day for “free” babysitting and don’t want to be bothered with anything else.

    Maybe the $15k in catering is to feed them.

    Kenosha’s Unbelievable School District.

    It would have been not too difficult for him to say, “I can assure everyone that the school board and administration are aware of these concerns. The matter is under investigation and it would not be appropriate for me to comment further at this time pending completion of the review.”

    Obviously what happens next is up to the school board which has a meeting next week.

    3. To craft a compelling story, news is essential. Yet, the sight of 20 individuals brandishing signs, many without coherence, hardly qualifies as a narrative. The true narrative lies in the unsettling reality: parents willingly subjecting their children to the fabrications propagated by Kevin.

      2. Are you the Pedo’s wife or mommy? Why defend him when you know what he did? He likes little girls and was working on manipulating one to be his “girlfriend”. Adults don’t act like that.

        Hiding/deleting evidence doesn’t make the problem go away. He’ll just be sneakier about it next time. And a child will be a victim again.

        Why don’t you come forward and explain why you think this teacher is so wonderful? Tell us why it’s okay to text a little girl without a parent’s consent at all hours of the night. Tell us why he talked to her about being her “man” and missing her so terribly. Tell us why he wrote her love notes. Tell us why he was tipped off by KUSD so he could get evidence deleted.

        Honestly, if this would’ve been my daughter, this pedo teacher wouldn’t have been seen again. So I guess he’s pretty lucky.

  12. WI Mass Resistance has been warning the public about this for months. Where was the outrage then? This is a consequence of the KUSD pushing sexually explicit materials on our children with approval of the faculty, board, and administration.
