How is normal instruction going to occur when the teachers are organizing and leading the walkout?
what teachers?
Umm because teachers aren’t organizing and leading the protest.
There’s plenty of indoctrinating liberal teachers doing so. Don’t kid yourself. Thank you, teachers union for the extra help via emails and newsletters
Tin foil hat trophy goes to you.
lol nice try 😉not offended at all
That’s funny
Yeah, this obsurd. And what good do you think it’s going to do?? What results are you hoping for? Stupid! And dramatic, but dems are all about drama!!
Performative democrats. No substance
Whoever leaves the school for the walk out should either be expelled or considered delinquent and given a citation to appear before the village judge. Too much of this shit is happening. Kids have got to learn to respect authority or pay the consequences.
Too much or not enough? Do it kids!
Aren’t you just a fuckhead!
Are you a teacher ?
Shut yo hoe ass up 😂 leaving a school aint allay serious yall js sum crybaby ass niggas talm bout delinquents n shit its the day the shits happening so if they do come here in gonna be a fuckin delinquent
I see you have achieved the standard 4th grade education level and I’m being liberal.
4th grade is giving way too much credit.
You miss English class? Or major in Ebonics’?
Your post literally could be the dumbest thing ever posted on this website. I don’t think you could spell more words wrong if you tried! Just another wanna be gangster white kid , keeping it real, in th.e county. LOL
Wow, so many “Americans” who just don’t uphold their constitutional rights. Tread on you harder and you might moan
If you’re leaving, don’t come back. ICE is law enforcement, period. It’s been turned into a circus by the left‑wing loons. The reason it looks chaotic is because they’re turning it into that. FAFO – that’s why people are being shot. Law enforcement has a right to go home to their families each and every night. These people protesting are the problem, not the solution. It’s un‑American, period. Stop being manipulated by the media; you’re acting like lemmings. Remember, the enemy in our country is from within right now. Our adversaries are licking their chops. Wake up!!!! Do you think these pukes would defend our country if we were attacked, not a chance. They are turncoats, they just like to protest. What other group of law breakers will they protest next? Anyone participating in this walk out is part of the problem, no shame. If a teacher participates, they should be Fired. You don’t get to decide which laws you’re going to follow.
Also, keep in mind, the poster child for this chaos is Minnesota, the epicenter of mental illness and crooks. Please give the state to Canada.
You are one deranged mthrfkr, wow!
Is that English? Maybe you shouldn’t walk out, you can use the extra learning.
What a shock that the people who are telling for kids to stay in school, cannot understand abbreviation or shorthand. Maybe you should e never been allowed to graduate, but yet your Republican “no child left behind”, flooded the polls with retarded ass “Americans” who don’t understand our constitution unless it comes to their second amendment. There are also Gun laws, yet you love to yell that we don’t have to follow those because of the second amendment, well we have a FIRST that comes before that one. We have a 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th that are being trampled on. You’re right the enemy IS coming from within, it’s people like YOU. If we were attacked, which we are NOW, you people aren’t even standing up for your fellow fucking Americans. You’re fucking pathetic, if you’re as American as you claim, you’d be protecting EVERYONES rights, NOT just the people you agree with. That’s how we KNOW Republicans aren’t Americans. They would never defend a democrate, but a democrate would gladly fight for your personal rights and freedoms.
Laughable comment, but nice try. Typical protesting DEMOCRATS would gladly fight for NOONE’S rights if it does not align with their political affiliation, period. They’d rather see people killed if it furthers their messages, so don’t type bullshit. Please and thank you.
Civil disobedience. Excellent.
Yawn.
Those kids from Wilmont and paddocks lake are idiots
There is no N in Wilmot.
I love Wilmet
Lemmings and useful idiots of the world unite! ☭
Bitched
If teacher instigated, fire them.
Let every student in both high schools look at who is in class and who is attending the ICE Protest.
Then you will know exactly WHO IS WHO !!!!
Both boys and girls can look directly at those people and see who you want to be friends with. Who you want to date. Who you might want to spend the rest of your life with.
Or Who you want to actually try to convince them to change sides !!
Let this be a full on learning experience of judging a book by its cover.
It will be telling on not only who is on what side but more importantly if you are willing to admit in front of all your peers that you stand up for your side and are proud to do it !!!
This is PERFECT !! Stand up for what you Believe !!
Just be ready for the Fallout
Always good to see our youth participating in Constitutionally protected activities. Keep up the good work. Warms my heart. Maybe, just maybe democracy will come back to the United States of America.
I surely do miss it dearly.
Ought to choose something righteous to protest, not law enforcement
You’re a fucking idiot. Law enforcement aren’t perfect, they aren’t superheros, they aren’t Gods. They make mistakes and protesting holds them accountable. Otherwise don’t protest anything, don’t like they way your town is running, don’t protest, just comply or leave. Don’t like the way Congress is running? Just comply or leave the country. Don’t like the way your mayor runs your town or uses your taxes, don’t protest, just comply or leave your home. Makes perfect sense right? How about during the 60s when police had rights to beat blacks for using the wrong water fountain? Shouldn’t protest that right, should e just complied and obeyed the law.
We need to send these calm, law abiding protestors to your place of work so they can respectfully spit on you, assault you, attempt to run you over, and most definitely prevent you from doing your job. That’s a plan of action I can get behind.
My kids think this is dumb as fuck. Not a cause they will be walking out for. Also, freezing cold. They know better.
Remember when the F word resulted in soap in your mouth and was beeped out on TV. Disgusting!
You can still do the soap in the mouth thing by using the soap flavored jelly beans from Jelly Belly. It is food, so you can’t get into any allegations of abuse. And it works just as well.
Any teacher that walks out should be reprimanded for political activity on the job. Any students that walk out should be forced to form a single file line outside the door to check back in and have their attendance properly documented as unexcused/truant. Simple as that. These are not toddlers, they don’t “need to be supervised” by a teacher who just wants to protest at work.
You’re right, they’re NOT toddlers, they are teens practicing their first amendment right, which you people LOVE to shout, overrides all state laws like truancy, or like teachers not being able to protest. Or is it that federal law is ONLY above state law when it’s convenient for you.
Stop teaching kids to be dumbass libtarded dumocratic assholes and go fuck yourselves!
Teachers teaching kids to be dumbass libtarded dumocratic assholes…..
DDS
Like a dentist?
Don’t throw all of the blame on teachers. There are parents that think this is okay.
I worked at Central long ago for eight years. It’s pretty clear that most students who might walk out are students who don’t give a crap about their education and are just following. a crowd. 9 out of 10 students couldn’t find Somalia, for example, if it were a map of Somalia. Want to make it more difficult? Show them a map of South America and ask where Somalia is. Show them a map of the Middle East, and ask them where Venezuela is..
Young people’s lack knowledge of politics and geography is appalling. If they want to walk out over ICE and immigration enforcement, do the protest on Saturday. School is more important.
Shame on any teachers and administrators at Central for approving a walk out that represents only certain students, not the school or the parents or taxpayers.
Where’s Wilmot?
So what happened? Did they do a lap around the school for an hour before being bussed home? lol.
Will Don Lemon be there?
Maybe Kevin or others should do some open records requests on some of these teachers suspected of supporting this to see how involved they were?
