I’ll preface this by saying that I’m assuming Florida’s school funding is tied to local property taxes in a structure similar to PA’s funding model. If that is not the case, then this post may be totally off base. All residents of the community that pay school taxes have the same rights to be involved in the school’s function through attendance and requests at school board meetings regardless of whether or not they have children in the schools. To act differently is absolutely not right and borders on taxation without representation. When I was on our local school board we had a staff member that lived in the community. Parents and some of the other staff that interacted with this Indian loved them, but they were acting inappropriately and harassing certain members of the staff. The person elected to resign rather than face termination. After the separation of employment, they began harassing administration by making an overwhelming number of requests for information including emails that mentioned specific topics - broad topics like "Covid”. The requests were within their rights as a tax payer in the community, but were taking a ton of resources for the district. And there were 5-10 new requests every day, multiple calls, emails, etc. Every request had to go through the attorney to make sure the district was complying with the law. The requests and the identity of the person making them were covered by confidentiality so we couldn’t call them out publicly so instead I just asked administration for the total dollar amount that we had spent to-date on the FOIL requests that had been coming in during public session. Once the number was public, and everyone realized how much of their tax dollars were going to these wild goose chases the requests stopped. But it wouldn’t have been right or legal for us to limit that persons right to make the requests just because they didnt have kids in the district just like we couldn’t and wouldn’t have prevented someone that chose to send their kids to a private or charter school from commenting during a public meeting as long as they lived and paid taxes in the community. I really don't give a sheet what some old loony that binge watches Fox all day thinks about my kids' schools. If the school board passed on letting them voice their nonsense opinions I'd be 100% fine with it. Not sure why we waste time, money and bandwidth bending over backwards for rouge idiots.

That may be your opinion but it is not legal.

Again, this is based on my experience in PA so laws elsewhere might be different but here it is a requirement that school boards have meetings open to the public and allow for public comment periods. Any tax payers in the district in good standing are free to comment at the meetings.

March 1, 20242 yr Author Honestly kind of wild that all these imperfect laws could have been completely avoided if liberals just didn't want to show young kids gay sex. But here we are.

March 1, 20242 yr Literally the very first thing out of any liberals mouth when it comes to politics is hateful rhomo rhetoric, and you all wanna talk about "suppressed feelings" And before you say anything at all, just take a second to ponder how many times youve used the phrase "orange lips" or made a similar reference and then STFU.

You get your two minutes to speak your mind. Thanks, then have a good day. The DeSantis Don't Say Gay bill went much further. Each school had to create a database of every individual book in the school and publish it, so every busybody could search it up and challenge each and every book in the library. Every new book purchased had to be reported to the public. For each challenge the school had to report it to the state, whether it was valid or not. The bill was intrusive and it went too far.

I used to be more creative, and just say that your butt craves dry, splintery stovewood, but after a while, you come to realize that folks like you are not worth the energy to be creative. So you stick with what works. Thanks for letting me know it is working.

March 1, 20242 yr It’s absolutely crazy that MAGA morons get their panties in a bunch about kids having sex in a fiction horror book filled with kids getting murdered.
