Students across Florida to Walk Out on Friday to Protest DeSantis’s ‘Authoritarian Takeover’ of Education System

quote:

High-school and college students across the state of Florida plan to walk out of school on Friday to protest Governor DeSantis and Florida’s “authoritarian takeover of its public education system.”

Organized by a left-wing advocacy organization called Walkout 2 Learn, the event will feature a five-minute “banned history lesson” taught outside schools across the state. “Right now, Florida’s people do not have control over their legislature—our governor does. So as we spend all of our time protesting, rallying, and walking out in an attempt to stop our legislature from abusing their power and us, Ron DeSantis is cackling because he knows it won’t work,” the organization states. “Walkout 2 Learn recognizes the harmful fascism that Floridians are experiencing every day and will provide immediate, short-term solutions to every participant so that they may protect themselves and their communities.”


He should start by charging Walkout2Learn clowns with terrorism

Presumably by ignoring it initially.

Does he need to jump right on it?

Better not storm the Fla. Capital because Ron May do like Biden and put them in jail without release on bail bond.

He shouldn’t get involved in that BS. Let the fat purple hairs walk out it’ll benefit the rest of the student population.

Any school employees found to be involved in promoting this should be fired immediately and banned from working in any public school system in the state.

Good. Let them walk out. Count them absent from class. If a test is given, they earn an "F". Enough of these and they'll either flunk out or quit.

Tell schools to count all that walk out as unauthorized attendance for the day.

Not really sure what he can do, other than tell them to frick off, smart adults know what's best.

Also they said this:

Sounds like a parody.

High school and college kids don't need a particularly compelling reason to leave class, so probably a lot. He should leave it to individual school districts as to how they're going to handle it. The harder the line he takes on it, the weaker it will make him look.

Millions of people call out of work every day.

I don't give a frick about a few college aged punks doing the same.
