1. Stupid is as stupid does.

Given the demographics of Orange County, it’s clear that the Republicans wield undue power and have too much influence on policy.

2. The Board of Education should be required to attend.

4. No, they should be required to TEACH...fuck them all (n/t)

[bluedigger]

5. I'd have to see their credentials before subjecting the students to that.

Based on their recent performance, I am not hopeful.

6. Point conceded....they can relieve the custodial staff then and be handed mops

Then tell them their job is to stand in the halls between ALL classes, then mop the floors and repeat all day.
Stagger the classes to that they are constantly exposed to waves of unmasked students in the halls...

The schools would be re-closed before lunch.

3. If my school is on that list, you can bet that I will be sitting this semester out.

I'd rather lose the semester than lose my life to COVID.

10. Parents also have the choice not to let their children attend.

11. Not a binding vote. Local Districts still decide and have control. I listened to the

hearing and most speakers came from a non-sensical, religious, political, or strident place IMHO. Clearly there was organization to tilt the hearing this way and it was chilling.

Trumpism on display.

19. The birthplace of Nixon

Orange County still has a fierce Republican stronghold. Southern CA was a Republican region till the last 20 years.

16. How did we get to the point where a county that went for Clinton in 2016 is for trumpism and CV19

because they encourage local school systems to open, when the local systems can choose not to open, how they are reopened (reduced days and hours, etc.), and parents can choose to keep their kids at home?

17. A better headline- 4 people recommend schools re-open and their rec is non-binding nt

18. I was told just last week Orange Co. is now solid blue. 2018 vote doesn't make it look solid blue

with this vote.
