re: Vermilion Parish teacher arrested during school board meeting

Thank you for a rational and coherent reply. I agree with the premise that both sides could have handled it and should have handled it much differently. However this board does not show consistency with that mindset. There was some SJW woman Who was at least twice escorted from city Council meetings I believe over the summer or last spring. The majority on this board were clamoring for her arrest and applauding her being escorted off. The same ones who were yippee-ya-yaying when Mr. Gary chambers was arrested for speaking off topic or refusing to keep quiet when told to keep quiet.

The majority seem to support a person rights when they agree with what the person is saying. However the same support is not offered when a person is speaking up against the majority OT views. In fact, people support the right to shut these people up or even arrest them. I believe that for the most part the circumstances described above and this school board meeting where similar except that in this case different from the majority here.

hat are the scenarios here? What was the "SJW woman" escorted out for? What is Mr. Chambers continually escorted out for? I don't pay attention to BR politics, so I'm legitimately asking.

---

Speaking off topic and continuing to speak when told not to speak anymore.

mm Chambers kept bringing up things not on the agenda and refused to leave, this woman brought up something on the agenda, the superintendent didn't like it and mentioned no questions. From what I see the woman even says, "fine I'm leaving" and goes to walk out. Once what happened when she walked out we don't know, from what we saw in the room was her willingly leaving once it is obvious they are not going to entertain her. t

This woman also continued to speak on her way out when she was not allowed. She also put her hands on the officer in a defense mode when he attempted to escort her out After she first did not comply to leave.

For the record, I do not think she should have been arrested . I do think that she should have been kept quiet or escorted out if she continue to break council rules. Same Holds true for social justice warrior and chambers my point is the inconsistency in this board’s reaction to the scenarios

I'm curious as to when she put her hands on the officer, I've only watched the video once and I see her pull away when he goes to grab her in the room. As far as speaking out, she is talking aloud to everyone saying it is bullcrap. Chambers stood directly at the podium and continued even as the officer approached. Chambers didn't volunteer to leave on his own like this woman did. I also have a problem with how it was handled having attended these meetings, questions are normally asked, the superintendent just didn't like these questions.

She was recognized. She went past her allotted three minutes and they even allow that. She was no longer recognized at that point.

You won't get consistency with thousands of people, with different opinions.

For the record, you won't find me in any of those theads saying so and so should or shouldn't have been arrested. Im of the belief that the media never gives the entire story. So I try not to form an opinion based on a small video clip, and the info given by one side in the news.

Its similar to the national anthem stuff in the NFL. I don't believe in it, but I don't see a problem with people doing it for the reasons they are doing it.

k, my first issue with your comparison is that the teacher was only off topic because Fontana said she was. Anyone with a half a brain can recognize the validity of her questions/concerns. Why is the superintendent being given a raise after 5 years when the teachers haven't been given one in a decade?

---

Those are valid points and I agree. However those comments were for a different meeting. She should have attended and commented at that meeting. Additionally, she was allowed or three minutes and then some . She continued to complain after her time was up.

Right, but she was recognized a second time and the Super even started to engage her in a cordial back and forth right before the officer got to her, in fact the officer's actions interrupted the Super.

Watch this video. Then compare the two. He was also a teacher. He was just as, or more, aggressive than she was. He also actually approached them when talking. Where was the Marshall here? Why wasnt he cut off and removed?

Wow, is that the son of the board member who passed?
