Her comments :

quote:

“I firmly believe that Black Lives Matter, but I DO NOT agree with the coercive measures taken to get to this point across; some of which are falsified in an attempt to prove a point,” Riley wrote, according to the school’s website. “While I want to get behind BLM, I do not think people should be made to feel they have to choose black race over human race.”

“While I understand the urgency to feel compelled to advocate for black lives, what about our fellow law enforcement?” she added. “What about all others who advocate for and demand equity for all? Just because I don’t walk around with a BLM sign should not mean I am a racist.”


Sorry if Germans.

She even said that she firmly believes that black lives matter rather than saying the dreaded "all lives matter" and is still paying the price. Apparently that isn't good enough. Any dissent must be punished.

The lesson that we are all learning is that you do not speak your mind unless you are in compliance with contemporary dogma, or have the ability so say "frick you, I don't care". Any other speech is ill-advised on a public platform.

Almost no one with conservative leanings is looking to get involved with education, especially on the bureaucratic or administrative level. That's just the name of the game.

So far so good.

Oops! Suspended for the re-education camps!

Joe Thomas says that’s not good enough:


quote:

"We cannot just be nonracist. We really do need to be antiracist. "Antiracism is direct opposition to any idea that supposes one race is better than any other in any respect. An antiracist sees more black people in poverty than white people and says, 'There must be something racist going on here'—because without racism there should be no difference in outcomes between races. In order to spur progress, we all need to be people who point out and shine a spotlight on racism wherever we see it. It doesn’t always have to be confrontational, but it does need to become the societal norm that racism is identified and not tolerated in any form or fashion. We cannot be afraid to talk about race and inequality any longer." Thomas added that being "not racist" is "not good enough."

This is why we have a “silent” majority. We now live in a country where expressing your view has consequences.

Exactly what the founding fathers were trying to avoid.

You mean by having an opinion that goes against the official narrative?!

I'm guessing he's calling her dumb for expressing it, not for having it.

Look at how she was described for making innocent and truthful comments.

Insanely tone deaf, ignorant, prejudiced.

ask for go fund me, to sue the living hell out of this board for these remarks.

Can North Korea just go ahead and nuke us? It would be a much more painless and simple end than getting Progged to death.
