@StellaParton The scariest aspect is declaring war on Democratic led cities! This is truly authoritarian regime tactics. And to say the military needs to train in these cities? It’s war against your own citizens! Does anyone care? Can we stop this?
It is very disappointing to me. And this realization has truly affected my life and my happiness. I thought we were better people. I thought we had common goals, common concerns, common appreciation and dignity. I taught high school for 39 years. I loved my students. I’m like a parent wondering what I did wrong and what more could I have done. The world is not a happy place. It is hard to feel like an alien in your own land.
@StellaParton I love your candid comments. I love your passion for truth, accountability, and patriotism in upholding our democratic principles!!!!!! We can certainly do better and be better.
It’s a sad country. I taught high school for 39 years. I taught Orwell’s 1984 and I thought it was just odd. This “double-think” where the citizens could believe one thing to be true and be told to believe something else and THEY DID! Orwell called it “doublethink”. Sad part was whatever the government told them was a LIE!
@RepTimBurchett Well, Mr. Burchett , that’s great news! Does it mean I no longer have to pay taxes? I think you and others in this government are the terrorists!!!!!
The writing was on the wall: too much outside money, too much bullying and too much bribery. We got our message to the people, but the people and students didn’t matter. I hope our districts carry a reminder of who betrayed them with their vote. For me, Becky Massey Duncan in Knoxville.
@TNSenateDems Please help parents, teachers, and students by protecting our public schools and opposing Vouchers. Our communities support their public schools.
@DerekWBlack I hope ALL my colleagues, both retired and active teachers from across the state, and those of us who love and support public education will read this with me! ( Book club anyone?)
@DerekWBlack Dr. Derek Black has a new book!! I am excited to read it! I’m also honored that he and I will be presenting in Detroit at the NEA-R on March 10th! I am very honored!!!!!
