  1. Cameras in the classroom is antithetical to the concept of tenure for teachers. So you’re talking about a major systemic disruption. Maybe that’s what you want; if so, we just disagree there.
  2. I still want the video. I’m eager to learn. I always enjoy playing ask the expert. And, FYI, school safety is different from placing cameras on teachers—the point to which you alluded earlier.
  3. Sounds like you want direct control to me. We're behind the rest of the world for a lot of reasons. Laziness. Morons. Poverty. There's a variety of reasons. But bringing local control of education into the mix because whiners are worried about "critical race theory" is only going to make it worse. If you don't want your kids leaning about slave ships in public schools, then home school or choose a private school that employs a program that you like. Bottom line.
  4. Maybe you should make a video. Share your knowledge with the masses. This is the Information Age, after all.
  5. My vote is no. Or, if they do, they should move Milano. Too much money invested in second-level defenders who don’t rush the passer. I appreciate the argument that Edmunds covers a ton of ground in zone in this D. But there’s only so much cash to go around, and on the D side of the ball I think we’ve learned it should go to pass disrupters, e.g., rushers, corners, or exceptional safeties.
  6. I’d like to see the video before I commit to the flight. No reason to invest that time and money unless I know it will be worth my while.
  7. Now you’re worried about stranger danger. I can’t keep it straight with you. If you don’t want your child to be taught by a stranger, then it’s time to home school. And, if you want to have direct control over the curriculum at the school of your child, looks like home school or private school is the way to go. Otherwise, by availing yourself of the public education system, you submit to public direction as what is taught and how those lessons are delivered. Hoax. I’m not. Maybe you can post a video of your speech at this school safety conference. We might learn something. Could be interesting.
  8. Congratulations on your guest speaking role. Hopefully you pay more attention to diction there than you do here.
  9. Hoax. Hoak’s is A restaurant on the Lake in Hamburg. There is more than one such restaurant.
  10. Hoax. I’m not all over the place. You are. Now you’re saying that teachers should always wear body cameras—24 hours a day—because some teacher somewhere diddled a student outside of school hours and off of school grounds. What a sickening suggestion it is to invade the privacy of hundreds of thousands of good and honest teachers. This isn’t some Orwellian state we’re living in here.
  11. No, I believe we have cameras on cops to prevent police brutality and to insulate police from unfounded claims of brutality. Teachers don’t regularly have physical interactions with the populous. Police do. It’s sort of absurd that this even has to be a conversation. Like cops? Give them cameras. Protect them. Think Ken Achtyl is a d-bag (I do; Google him. He wouldn’t have been caught without a body cam)? Put a camera on him, too. It’s a win for everyone.
  12. Not really. I haven’t heard of teachers shooting anyone in the back recently. Also, the cameras are *gasp* better for police because it insulates from misconduct/brutality/etc. claims. Also helps with suppression issues. In this day and age, there’s no good reason not to have them on cops. Cool story. Maybe they can home school. Otherwise, by participating in the public education system, they delegate that responsibility through an indirect electoral process.
  13. Hoax. Sad that you don’t back the blue. I do. You should, too.
  14. https://int.nyt.com/data/documenttools/rnc-censure-resolution/58226d40412e4f18/full.pdf I didn't realize that beating police officers, trespassing, engaging in rebellion, and comforting those who do all of those things are planks in the Republican Party platform. Sick. And so are the people who refuse to condemn this nonsense.
  15. We shall see. But it's a reasonable supposition. At the very least he built himself a diplomatic off-ramp.
  16. What’s your definition of freedom? Lack if any restraint (eg stoplights, masks in public places during a pandemic)? Or can you accept that freedom involves some restraints for the betterment of the group?
  17. It’s not partisan. Nobody said that. It just has different contours to different people.
  18. How precisely does one view freedom? A fair question posed by Gunner Bill. Is it extreme libertarianism, along the lines of "nobody can make me wear a mask in Target?" Or is it something else? Maybe Buffalo Timmy and those of his political orientation can chew on this. It's good food for thought and it echoes what Gunner Bill is getting at: "Real liberty for all could not exist under the operation of a principle which recognizes the right of each individual person to use his own, whether in respect of his person or his property, regardless of the injury that may be done to others."
  19. 1. Find pass rusher who can finish. 2. Improve team speed at WR/CB. 3. Improve yearlong focus. The cluster against the Jags explains why the KC game was there instead of here. We can't stumble like that next year.
  20. Both things are true. The loss has more than one cause.
  21. There’s only 32 of those jobs.
  22. Could be. But it’s hard to imagine someone who wants to be a HC turning down such a job at his age.
  23. And they didn’t bring him back this time. It’s bizarre. (Unless there’s something that we don’t know about Frazier that happened in the interim, but that seems unlikely.)
  24. If we let Russia run over Ukraine, then then Chinese get eyes on Taiwan. Global geopolitics at work. I'm not saying that we get involved in a ground war in Ukraine--I don't think that's a good idea--but I'm all for making this really, really painful for Russia should Russia move on Ukraine. And, we should beef up our presence in Poland and the Baltics. Don't want NATO in Ukraine? Fine. But invade Ukraine and you get an awful lot more NATO in other nearby places.
