About the girl that was raped. Why hasn't the school board been charged with aiding and abetting a criminal?

[@jman11041]

because that would be transphobic of course

[@greenalligators7845]

THEY SHOULD BE! And the school board covering it up is, textbook law, "obstruction of justice"-of course Garland took a secret oath to Biden that he would just forget about law. Biden has the most cover-up, lawless administration in the history of this country. Transparency? The only thing transparent is Biden's skin being so old and thin and their lies are completely see-through.

How does anyone know if that actually happened? When, where, what, who, no context was presented in this video cover of Cruz tirade of accusations out of context he failed to provide & did not allow AG Garland to present. So this video has no contextual facts of what Cruz is talking about. I say BS

[@ggburg8118]

School board should be charged with “Accessory after the fact” they did everything in their power to secret the rape of a 14 year old child on school grounds. The school is parent at litum during school hours while they have custody and control of the countries children. They are for all intent-temp parental authority. If any parent knew their minor child was raped, covered it up, denied it publicly, removed and hid the perp, then watched them recommit the same CRIME yet still hid the fact, they would be arrested prob by the FBI and Garlands DOJ. The school has the DUTY TO REPORT WITHIN A DESIGNATED PERIOD OF TIME.

[@joey6119]

Shoot

[@joey6119]

They should be treated the same way they treat shootings in school when they take up for criminals and crucified the child punishment should be the same as the ones who do mass shootings should get the full weight of our laws as an accessory to the crime there is no other recourse just punish as a murderer same crime diss Barre this crap judge

I'm from Canada . Years ago I was calling on the local high school about a ' protest the teachers were organizing that day. when I got to the school, I found it deserted of all pupils. I made my way to the principles office, and when I got there, I confronted this man as to where My teenage daughter was. I was told, that the teachers had encouraged the kids to 'Join" them on their march or whatever they were planning that day ..........A minute passed, and then as I stood in front of this man's desk, I asked him " Did you know about this? He did. another second passed, and I let rip! I told this Principle, that he had no business letting the kids off school property during the day, and NOT letting the parents know! I was furious! The Principle said nothing.... I cannot remember now what else took place that day , but when my daughter came home , I told her that never again was she to do this, and it anything else happened and she was left in School alone , she was to call me and I would come and pick her up. Children should never be involved in adult issues like this . It still makes me angry when I think about this..

@@ericscottstevens Free stuff? Socialism and communism are beautiful ideas the problem is people are greedy and power corrupts the result is the rich get richer the poor stay the same and the middle class is eliminated.

[@43jayboe]

This could not be more false. Socialism and communism both are neither good nor beautiful. The basis for both is tribalism that leads only to violence and political culling. It is not because people are greedy, it is because these ideologies are evil to their core. Read the manifestos and realize these ideas will never be good for anyone.

[@draconicchaos]

@@43jayboe the ideas of socialism and communism are just fine. Its the people in power who abused those systems and twisted them to gain power and wealth that made it wrong. They're no worse than democracy at their core. Look at our own country. Freedom for all, long as your white, rich, and are born in this country. Everyone else must bow before us because we alone are tge guiding light and perfect! But don't look in our closets, or behind closed doors! For we hate homeless, we hate immigrants, and we hate anyone that doesn't believe in what we believe! Our country was literally founded upon immigrants fleeing persecution. We fought against our King for we believed him to be a tyrant. Yet we refuse to allow immigrants fleeing persecution to enter our country without making them wait 8 years to legally enter. And even then, treat them as no good criminals and vagabonds, despite the majority of them having a stronger work ethic than most Americans.
