same for the Gods-damned school board, in that county at least
Democrats in the Virginia General Assembly voted for — and Governor Ralph Northam signed — a law allowing schools to refrain from reporting instances of sexual battery, stalking, violation of a protective order, and violent threats occurring on school property in 2020.
§ 22.1-279.3:1 of Virginia code had required that these, among a number of other major crimes, be reported to law enforcement if they occurred on campus. Democrats insisted that misdemeanors be extirpated from reporting requirements in House Bill 257, replacing the word “criminal” with “felony” in the code.
In a stunning exchange between legislators in the House of Delegates last year, Todd Gilbert, the Republican Leader in the body, asked Delegate Mike Mullen “did I hear correctly that you would not have to report sexual battery to law enforcement any longer if we accept these amendments?”
“I would answer the minority leader that he is not hard of hearing, and that he is asking me to repeat this over again even though he heard it the first time,” responded Mullen, the bill’s sponsor.
“Forgive me, Madam Speaker, ladies and gentlemen, for being shocked that the patron, a career prosecutor, would want to accept these amendments, and frankly would want to put you all in the position of voting to accept these amendments,” shot back Gilbert.
“So I apologize for my hard of hearing, but frankly I couldn’t believe my ears,” he added.
I will refrain from further comment since there are breakables nearby.

Can we start calling this the let's war on women?
Can we put the blame where it really belongs? Basically it's on the idiots who keep electing these morons and will now line up to vote for someone as Governer who say's parent should have no say so in what is taught to their children.
someone has to state the obvious here. The same people complaining put these fulls in their positions and will continue to do it
joe: Not sure if the blame falls on the voters or the people counting the votes...
For a lot of people, they never suspected just what their school board was up to. Then they found out.
Which is when the assholes started treating them like rebellious servants. I think future elections are going to be far different.
