Sounds like a good time to be going to school. There's a walkout ever month or so. Wonder if that would fly at most of our jobs?

...and these little twerps will inherit the world.

What could go wrong? Let's make a short list.

My boss won't let me work 2 hours and get paid for 10 hours. I'm walking out.

My mom kicked me out of the basement when I was 28 so I'm walking out.

They put .005 oz too much mayo on my micky d's sammich, I'm walking out.

Someone looked at me crossly, I'm walking out.

Robert hates me and all my friends and my parents and my entire lineage and I've never met him, I'm walking out.

and so on and so forth.

Naw, those of us with real jobs don't believe in most of the causes behind walkouts/protests. Those causes we do believe in that have protests schedule them for the weekend when the bulk of WORKING Americans are scheduled off.

Fortunately I don't go to protests much any more. I used to go to one almost every day.

Someone needed to stand between the protesters and the counter-protesters. [Flower]

Besides, if I ever walked out, at a minimum I would get charged leave. I have plenty of leave but try to only take it in 8 hour blocks. 70% of the hassle in work is getting up and going. Once you are there you might as well finish your shift and enjoy the drive home.

Be safe.

A follow up post to my previous, a buddy at work with a teen still in high school had his son approach him the other day and they talked about it. The kid told his dad he didn't have any interest participating in something like that.

While he and I are proud of the kid, and some parents are REAL with their kids while growing them up....there are soooo many of them grown up with T ball and everyone's a winner. Life is rainbow kitties, all ya gotta do is wish for it and make it happen.

The kids seem so alien and (mostly) broken.

When I was in high school (mid 90s) isn't wasn't cool to be a conformist. It was cool to think on your own, listen to your own music, etc... Even that young I was interested in guns and learning how to shoot. Loved one of my uncles who taught me the basics. Would have trusted anything he said about guns over any teacher.

There’s already a teacher shortage. Who will “teach” the kids when they are locked up?

I wouldn't hate this “Uninformed Child/Useful Idiot” walk out so much if I thought for one second that any of these kids had even a minuscule amount of info on the pro-gun side of the issue.

Not likely I would support these or any other student walk outs.

Until they finish school and become productive members of society(can support themselves) they need to STFU and get back to class.

It is parents responsibility to speak for their kids. Kids can have their own opinions at home.

The press would be directed to young persons with a prepared script to get their information and sound bites from. I don't think the press would even want to talk to someone other than the designated speakers. The press is salivating at the opportunity to push an anti-gun agenda on America from a bunch of kids being victimized by the NRA and rich white bigots that want to keep weapons of war on the street just so crazy people can kill more students.

Write truancy tickets for those that walk out and make them go to court to see the Judge.

Just have officers leave the tickets on the empty desks.

Reward the ones that stay with a free skip a day of school or something fun and educational (like a tour of the US mint in Denver or something along those lines).

Alienating kids by punishing them for using rights we support is a bad idea. The gun community needs to get young people involved or we're all fucked. I'm still young enough that I've got a long ride left and I'd like to keep the shooting community going till I'm dirt-adjacent.

Also it took till page three for people to remember the 4/20 Columbine anniversary?

Kind of exposes how little the "educators" have told these kids as they manipulate them. If the kids don't even know what the laws are there is no way they understand the importance of 2A. Let alone the historical abuses/atrocities in societies without RKBA.

Well a New Jersey District is handing out 2 day suspensions for walkouts and I think they actually have a good reason.

https://davidharrisjr.com/politics/nj-school-district-handing-out-suspensions-to-students-that-walked-out/


High school students in Sayreville, New Jersey are getting 2 day suspensions for their anti-gun walkout on Wednesday. The school district had warned parents and students ahead of time that they would face suspensions.

The school district claims that it created a dangerous situation for students. They are right. If someone were contemplating a school shooting, how tempting would a school walk out be.

The gunman could fire from their car or just outside their car and could then drive away. Considering the fact that the school could be held liable for that shooting and you can see why they were against it.

Apparently there's some sort of counter movement to #Walkout and it's called #WalkUp.

It encourages kids to walk up to a loner kid or a bullied kid and offer them to sit at your table or join your group.

I came across an article that discourages this and suggests that this is completely dangerous and places innocent kids at risk.

Ohio Student Suspended for Refusing to Leave Classroom During Gun Control Walkout

https://ijr.com/2018/03/1076385-ohio-student-suspended-refusing-to-leave-classroom/


A high school student in Hilliard, Ohio, didn’t want to pick sides in the contentious gun debate surrounding Wednesday’s “National Walkout,” so he stayed in class instead of joining the largely anti-gun protest or an alternative “study hall.”

Hilliard Davidson High School senior Jacob Shoemaker was then reportedly slapped with a suspension.

The student argued that divisive politics have no place in America’s schools and he refused to take sides in the debate, according to the Associated Press.

[snip]

“Student refused to follow instructions after being warned repeatedly by several administrators,” the letter said. “Student not permitted on school property.”

[snip]

This is how hard they are pushing the kids.

When we had a First Amendment this would have a been problem for the "educators." Now that association can forced and free speech banned I'm sure they will be okay.

He could have went to the study hall.

Why?

Because the "educators" were going to leave their classrooms unattended. On a school day. With a lesson plan.

His refusal to participate was met with an exceptional demand. Some could say punitive but I'll leave that up to the lawyers.

If education is a human right was this student denied that right because he wouldn't participate in their political demonstration that had nothing to do with education? What would happen if a student arbitrarily decided to miss a school day? Are we really naïve enough to think "educators" didn't alter their plans as well putting education behind their personal politics?

He could have went to study hall
He could have said/not said that
He could have not voted that way
He could have ...


Do you not see the way this is going?

This wasn't children exercising their right to free speech, it was "educators" compelling association and one of the few times we've seen them admit the classroom isn't as sacred as they want us to believe.

4/20 is Hitlers Birthday. He was all for gun control and we should all know what he had planned after he got the little people disarmed. And that was a medium to higher superpower when WWII started. Imagine what they could do with America if nobody could fight back. Or if they thought that nobody could stop them. Doesn't make me want to go along with any gun control.

California High School Teacher On Leave After Questioning School Shooting Walkout

http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2018/03/14/rocklin-teacher-questions-walkout/


[snip]

Benzel says she never discouraged her students from participating in the national school walk out, but she did question whether it’s appropriate for a school to support a protest against gun violence if they’re not willing to support all protests.

“And so I just kind of used the example which I know it’s really controversial, but I know it was the best example I thought of at the time—a group of students nationwide, or even locally, decided ‘I want to walk out of school for 17 minutes’ and go in the quad area and protest abortion, would that be allowed by our administration?” she said.

She says the administration didn’t talk to her about her lecture, last week.

But while thousands of students walked out of class, Mrs. Benzel received a letter from her human resources department, informing her she’s being placed on paid administrative leave.

“I didn’t get any backlash from my students. All my students totally understood that there could not be a double standard,” she said.

Including Nick Wade, who didn’t walk out.

“I feel like if we were to go to school and say something like I want to walk out maybe for abortion rights, then you know they probably wouldn’t let us because that’s more of a conservative push. But someone wants to say let’s walk out for gun control then the school’s going to go with it because it’s more of a popular view,” said Wade.

[snip]

Of course they wouldn't allow a Conservative demonstration! They suspended her for even suggesting Conservative speech should be on the same footing.

First Amendment they said.

Free speech they said.

The only way at this point to fix the public education system is to have more than 50% if parents withdraw their children from classes for over one year. The .gov won’t arrest that many people.

Call it a sabbatical, tell them Jimmy has Aids, your going on a family hot air ballon trip around the world etc.

Then have a massive concerted infiltration of conservative, constitutionalist, libertarian, classical liberal, religious, Hell, anyone that is against the system as it is, and wants actual education to occur - not indoctrination, into the education sector as administrators, union leaders, teachers, counselors, principles, and staff.

[snip]

I've given it a great deal of thought over the years and I don't believe it can be fixed.

There are three fundamental flaws....

1. The system is guaranteed funding from taxpayers independent results = no accountability. Even if a district got exceedingly low scores (pick a urban school district) they aren't getting shut down. No lawmaker is going to withhold funding from failing schools. Additionally, individual employees in the system who fail to perform are seldom fired. A career of bad choices, low performance, and even outright misconduct/misappropriation is rewarded with lifetime retirement/benefits.

Even when that retirement program (PERA) is mismanaged, the taxpayers are forced to step in and back it up!

"Educators" are incorporated against the consumer via teachers unions. The unions are political organizations that act against the best interests of students, parents, and now even teachers themselves (e.g. year-round, healthcare "reform", etc...). Unions = DNC = Media. The individual education consumer isn't cracking that nut to get what he/she is paying for.

We spend more per pupil than any other developed nation. Last time I checked we were #37 of 40 in results.


2. The funding structure (taxpayers pay each year regardless of children/number of children) creates entitlement and disengagement. Many people look at the educational system as nothing more than daycare. I have friends who are teachers. The stories they tell about parents are disheartening. Because education is a "human right" consumers don't look at it like a good/service they are purchasing and don't see the value.

If a parent doesn't see the value in education does their child? If the parents aren't engaged, and can't get the kids engaged, what is the point?


3. The presumption that every child must have the same educational experience to age 18 is creating mediocrity. It's a waste of resources and detrimental to children who aren't being equipped for life. It holds many down and prevents them from advancing while funds are spent on kids that don't want to be there.

There are some children who are nothing more than a disruption to the education of others. These children should be transitioned out with some basic job/life skilled and in menial labor jobs at age 14/15 learning how to pay bills. These children need daycare until that point. Why are the taxpayers paying for certified college educated "teachers" to watch them?

There are others who would benefit from a trade skill and should be given advanced vocational education in lieu of high school. Some should be learning how to couple those skills with business education to run a business. And those kids could make a lot of money!

Some should be mil preparatory.

There are others who will go through to higher ed. And some of that doesn't even make sense! The idea that a STEM degree and Lib Arts degree effectively cost the same at most schools but offer vastly different income potential should be a case for changes. But it's not. At least it's not directly on my dime, I only have to guarantee the loan for the Lib Arts debt slave to repay (or default).


---

I say burn it down. Let parents keep their own money and pay for education out-of-pocket. Oh, I know that won't happen for some and the results are the exact same just without the $150,000 expense to taxpayers.

Public education is funded at $10-12K per pupil depending on state. My son's school is half that and is amazing. Once the kids are out, I'm done paying. I wouldn't have to pay taxes that fund education in retirement.

People who want to have gazillions of kids can figure out how to pay. Don't want the government in your bedroom? Don't ask the taxpayers to pay for the consequences!

My friend took his kids out shooting during last week's protest. Sent an excuse letter to the school and their teachers saying he took them to the range to be educated on gun safety. A school resource officer called him on Friday and wanted to discuss the "safety and welfare" of his kids. I guess his kids were bragging about all the fun the had playing with his guns including his ARs. He pretty much told the resource officer to pound sand and mind his own. Said he would take to school to the cleaners if they further retaliate against him or his kids for not conforming to the anti gun values of the school administration.

wow. so now taking your kids to the range raises concern for the "safety and welfare of children?"....[emoji849]

some people deserve to be throat punched for their stupidity.

Glad the Dad told them to shove it.

I have 4 children, 2 in high school, 1 in elementary and 1 in pre-school. My wife and I talked to the older kids about the walk out. I told them that I do not support any kind of walk out of school for any reason. This is a post from my 14 year old son, he posted to snap chat when his friend asked him why he didn’t walk out.

Setting off fire crackers in the back yard next to a school during this walkout would be amusing. Especially in locals where it is perfectly legal to so.

Or working on a car with a bad backfire problem.

You know that saying, "What if we had a war and nobody came?" Well what if there was a high school walk-out and nobody reported on it because nobody cared? Guys are giving this stuff way too much attention.

He doesn't really let her answer some of the questions.

Says teachers participating was about safety of kids.
Lets said kids leave safety of school.

I remember kids skipping class or sneaking off. But I don't think 6th graders would just be allowed to leave. Even if sincere about the teachers providing safety, it appears to be support, if not a mandate to participate.

Welcome to public education.

It is shocking to see people who turn their kids over to Marxists shocked.

You mean they actually did what they said they've been planning on doing for 60 years?

Yes.


17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
