I hunt north Louisiana just a couple of times a year. Putting my 11 year old on a stand this year nearby, but terrible cell service and you can’t always localize gunshots. I have a 7 year old begging to go too and I can’t be in two places at once. My 11 year old does shooting sports at school and has done more gun safety education than I have, so I’m not worried about that part.

I want a set of 3-4 walkie talkies I can rig up with earpieces that will reliably work for at least a mile, maybe 2, depending on where my kid, buddies, and I am. It’s dense pine and oak forest up there for the most part.

Won’t use them often, so I don’t want to spend over $100 if I can help it.

Appreciate the help.

Came here to post this. I just emailed both of them

As if we needed another reason to dislike Cassidy. I also feel like Kennedy is a door to door salesman at times, but is 1000x better than Cassidy.

Won’t bore the board, but I had a fairly lengthy interaction with Cassidy as a medical student many years back when he would occasionally come to the clinics—he’s a piece of garbage. Everyone shuddered when he came through the door.

I’ve held my nose and voted for him. I don’t think I can do it again.

I wouldn’t be the first for something trivial

This doesn’t make sense, LPSS and Diocesan schools are governed by different entities. Why is diocese worried about wtf LPSS is doing for this.

Based on UK technical briefing 21, their rate is about 0.6%. Can be seen on page 33 of the document below. Best I can tell, it is no longer published. The US won’t ever publish this data. Only cook up a gotcha study that vaccine makes you more immune—waste of time with a 0.6% risk of reinfection and an even lower risk of death unless you’re 90

I have to respectfully disagree. I think you are incorrect about language development and the antidepressants.

If language development happened and was solidified at age 2, why are 6 years olds in speech therapy? Language development is way beyond just speech as well. I’m talking reading, enunciation, context, etc. things all made more difficult with a mask.

In terms of the antidepressants, pediatricians have personally told me they’re having to write them and at a very high rate. Maybe there is a black box warning, but it’s happening. Maybe they shouldn’t be, but I dunno. It’s happening.

I don’t come on here and spew nonsense. If people want nonsense, they can read it elsewhere. The fact of the matter is that masking is not useful for the kids and is detrimental

The children have essentially been voiceless in this.

Reverse the situation:

"horrible virus" killing scores of children. You think the adult government officials shut anything down?

Nope.

This doesn't adversely affect the kids. Its less of an issue than is the flu. Anything surrounding school restrictions, at this point, is an orchestrated charade that is currently worsened by scared parents, histrionic teachers, biased political figures in the board of education.

Schools are very, very safe. We will NOT be dealing with issues with relaxed restrictions.

No problem. It's an incredibly charged conversation.

People want to ignore the social impacts of maskings/distancing/etc on children. It's a real problem. Pediatricians are seeing more and more kids on anxiolytics and antidepressants. Teenage suicides are being ignored. PK3-PK4 kids are having language development delays.

If you truly believe "there's no downside to wearing a mask, just put it on" you have your head buried in the sand.

Long story short--it's because a small minority of parents will flip if you change anything.

I'm on an advisory board elsewhere for a large Catholic school in Louisiana and we are gradually loosening restrictions to try and make things normal for August 2021. I dont know where we will be stopped by the Diocese.

Anyway, for some people, we're not moving fast enough, for others we're moving too quickly.

One thing I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt is that based upon data and anecdotal experiences within our school system, children are NOT passing to each other or the adults. The cases we have are from outside, and when teachers are positive, they did NOT get it at school.
