14. My daughter was attacked on FB by a relative

My daughter expressed to a family member that those that need a wall to "protect" them are cowards. This set off the relative who contacted USA Today who saw fit to print the squabble in the local paper (an affiliate of USA Today). My daughter has served on our school board for several years. The relative called the Board president who to his credit blew her off when she proposed he "fire" my daughter. Most of the comments in the newspaper backed my daughter saying it was wrong of the other woman to try and take away my daughter's seat on the Board.
