The BLM movement is not political...it's about racial equality. Unless you live in Oklahoma.
The only way one could say these T-shirts are "political" is if you think one party is demonstrably more racially oppressive than the other.
Which party would that be?
“A ‘Black Lives Matter’ T-shirt is not politics,” Jordan Herbert said
Two brothers, Bentlee Herbert, 8, and Rodney Herbert, 5, were removed from their elementary classrooms and made to wait outside of the front officer for wearing “Black Lives Matter” shirts.
The New York Times reported that the boys’ mother, Jordan Herbert, was told by the superintendent of the school district in Ardmore, Oklahoma, that political apparel would “not be allowed at school.”
Bentlee, who is a third-grader at Charles Evans Elementary, went to class in the Black Lives Matter shirt that he picked out himself to wear on April 30, according to his mother. Bentlee was told by principal, Denise Brunk, that he wasn’t allowed to wear the shirt because of the message and was directed to turn it inside out to finish out the day.
Herbert said she learned from Brunk about the disciplinary action and went to inquire about the dress code policy that was violated on Monday. She was then referred to Ardmore City Schools superintendent Kim Holland.
“He told me when the George Floyd case blew up that politics will not be allowed at school,” Herbert told the outlet referring to Holland. “I told him, once again, a ‘Black Lives Matter’ T-shirt is not politics.”
According to a copy of the district’s student handbook, the policy states that clothing with “sayings or logos” must be “in good taste and school appropriate.”
On Tuesday, Herbert’s three sons – Bentlee, Rodney, and Jaelon, 12, went to their respective schools in matching “Black Lives Matter” t-shirts, with the image of a clenched fist on the front.
Herbert would later receive a call from Rodney’s school, Will Rogers Elementary, that she would need to either bring a new shirt to her son, let the school provide one or he would be directed to sit in the front office for the rest of the school day.
Rodney sat in the office until the end of the day while. Jaelon encountered no issues at Ardmore Middle School.
In an interview with The Daily Ardmoreite, Holland said that the shirts are disruptive in an “charged” social climate.
“It’s our interpretation of not creating a disturbance in school. I don’t want my kids wearing MAGA hats or Trump shirts to school either because it just creates, in this emotionally charged environment, anxiety and issues that I don’t want our kids to deal with,” Holland said.
He added, “Most of it has not been an issue until this lady here has been angry about it and I wish she weren’t so upset.”
Brainwashed ******* teach their children to be racists.

Let's see . . .
Government WAS bad. Not to be trusted. Do not "trust" the Trump vaccine.
NOW government is good. Get the shot.
What a difference a few months makes...
Nothing partisan about this at all.
and some douche bag prog throws infrastructure into the vaccine argument.
**** desperate. For what, who knows?

The USA has already had one black president.
Get your panties out of a wad. Take a deep breath and relax.
No, it won't.
Progressives have no end game. Ask them. I have for years.
When is enough enough? There is no answer. Only endless struggle for more.
More of what?
Another good question for which your average progressive has no answer.
Balance is NOT part of their game.

It ranges from rumor to legend to cannon-is-an-orphan-never-knew-him...
He was killed, died, became un-alive, etc. a couple months ago.
I thought he was dead last year. A couple times at least.
The year before that I quit going to his dad's funerals.
I'm not even sure if the guy in the suit was his dad or a doppelganger half the time.
The food was good though.

The last time I was murdered I was speeding.
The murderer killed me with a warning because I didn't call him what he was.
He had a gun and everything.

So the sport is to come up with a new way for cannon's dad to die... how about a transgender operation gone wrong.. has that happened yet?
Don't make a rush to judgement.
My thinking is that cannon is the son of a zombie.
The weird part is that his mother **** a zombie...
Well, maybe that's only one of the weird things.
I mean, how to you pick a gift for Father's Day?
What does a zombie like or need?

I have said this all along. Let the "investigations" continue to their end.
If we as a nation can let an impeachment go on from pre-inauguration to post election,
why not let this procedure go on for the citizenry to be certain Biden was duly elected?
So far, I can't say I'd trust Biden on a golf course for a $1 bet.

I don't pretend to know much about it. Just my personal situation.
If I were attempting to set policy I would educate myself way beyond my own experiences.
There's damned little of that in our so-called representatives. They are in their own little bubble.
Tone deaf **** or down right vindictive people should be voted out... but we don't do that.
We listen to sound bites and gotcha journalism to make serious decisions about who gets the nod.
I have some involvement with rehab, brain-injured, long term/permanently affected people.
Our current Gov. has locked down and had arrested people over the past year. Big bad covid...
Mrs Potato Head also set in motion (after promising she would NOT, live on stage, to quadriplegics I know) a set of new laws regarding insurance for disabled people. They are ****.
Previous two governors said they would leave things alone in that regard. And they did.
She promised the same thing and changed the rules anyway. After a life has been cruelly altered and new ways have to be employed (care givers, breadwinner changed, everything lurches off course), pulling the rug out from under people is **** horrible.
Absolutely tone-deaf.
I know it's a different topic but it illustrates my point about not being truly represented anymore.
Citizen government is what we were meant to have. Do a term or two then get out and earn a living.
These career politicians are anathema to that generally speaking.
Statesmen they are not. If they were at least trying to be, things could be tolerable.
Like tax reform. Might not please everyone but maybe we could understand tax code somewhat.
My rant... is... finally... over...

There's a lot in those listed tasks I can say I've done myself.
Just because I made a few sticks of furniture or welded/repaired something doesn't make my life full.
I draw, paint and sculpt as well. Again, so what?

Woke...
How many times have you seen "Wake up, America!!!" someplace?
I believe that it comes from people who actually believe they have superior awareness.
Just like that crazy **** walking the streets with that Wake up, America sign.
He believes he knows something we don't know ...yet. He does though: He's woke.
Anyone that actually uses that term in a serious manner believes that, too.
Those people are trend-following sheep that don't know ****.
