No, but most parents say "it can`t happen at OUR school"

Jennifer M

Geez Max, you act like you're a $2 steak. Old and tough....lol

Jack L

Jennifer, you have to realize that these guys are not used to being bested by a female. Their delicate macho egos can`t handle that.

Jack L

Max, you`re right about your skin being "too old" Not so sure about the rest of it though

Jack L

Just ignore these clowns Jennifer, LOL, I`m laughing my keister off at them. This is the most fun I have had in a month....

Max DeYoung

Jennifer, see if you can get Jack to a social worker and back on his meds again. He is slurring his words. He keeps trying to hurt our feelings, but we just don't care. Our skin is too old and too tough.

Max DeYoung

Jennifer, if you can't handle the heat, leave the kitchen.

Jennifer M

Just continue on with your pathetic ideologies with guns, election fraud, etc. Max you seem to have a bit of sense at times. Harry just follows along with whatever he reads online or on fox comedy. Justin is just an example of recidivism at its finest. Or is that too big of a word?

Jennifer M

Harry, the day you all offer anything at all on here based on fact and not conspiracy theories is a day Trump becomes an honest and respectful person

Max DeYoung

Harry, you know the truth is like a poison dart to a democrat. They can't stand to hear the truth, and they are unable to say the truth. And they all suffer from TDS.

Jennifer M

Jack L, you're right. All this forum is about "people" full of hate speech and childish insults. Notice it's all the conservatives doing it too. I have better things to do than be in here with these idiots. It's all yours. Hopefully you can grow up and be decent members of society

Jack L

Jennifer, this message board is just KMIZ`s playpen for radical Trumpers. No serious issues are discussed here, it`s just childish insults and mud throwing.All of the progressives have left this site a long time ago. There are many better message boards to join. Good luck to you

Jennifer M

Justin, it looks like you got half your tattoos from prison. Hope you didn't put out too much to get them. I guess no matter how much make up and clothes you put on a p.o.s, it's still going to be a real p.o.s.

Because here in the town where I'm at the schools are not checking the kids or having them them wand for any thing suspicious. They still go in the bathrooms and vape and nothing is done . They do drug check in lockers maybe 1 or 2 times a year. Teachers don't care seems like so why should the kid

Sports betting app companies now control all professional sports outcomes.

Trump is still your President

Max

The referees are determining the winners. The NFL has become a giant money laundering system. There is nothing there for me anymore, but I have a lot more time with my lovely wife, and our friends.

Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute, Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!

Max

It will always be that way, because most people make bad choices.

Fred

Forgot one important fact ... Reagan and trickle-down economics also put us on the path to huge budget deficits and financial ruin.

Fred

This data is from 12 years ago, but it is only WORSE now. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2014/nov/13/us-wealth-inequality-top-01-worth-as-much-as-the-bottom-90

Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.

Fred

Prior to the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies routinely denied coverage for pre-existing conditions. How exactly does that reduce the quality of coverage?

Fred

Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans, Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.

JIC CoMo

I say fire every Politian. I have not seen one yet that knows what they are doing. They are only for themself and not for the people of the State.

Toasty

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time. When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.

Fred

It would probably be replaced by higher regressive sales tax rates.
