Obama Education secretary: Pull children out of schools until gun laws change

[TalkRadio]

Former Education Secretary Arne Duncan said Friday that it was "tragically necessary" for parents to pull their children out of school en masse until U.S. gun laws are changed.

In a tweet, the former Obama administration official asked what would happen if no children went to school until "gun laws changed to keep them safe."

"My family is all in if we can do this at scale. Parents, will you please join us?" he asked.

Hmm, will the money saved by closing the schools offset the wave of unemployment applications? If so this idea just might work out.

No surprise. The Left wants an uneducated, unarmed society with legal pot tossed in to keep them even dumber.

Answer is how about parents raise their children and look for signs something is wrong with them rather than asking the Government to solve their problems?

Oh, wait that's what the Obama administration wanted too, 100% dependence on Government.

CPS offering free lunches to students all summer

Close the schools? Who will feed the children? In Chicago, CPS students eat free all year.

Chicago Public Schools is offering free weekday lunches to kids throughout the summer and is adopting new guidelines that will regulate how the district buys its food.

CPS already offers free meals to all students during the school year, spending nearly $80 million to serve 27 million breakfasts and 43 million lunches annually, according to the local nonprofit Chicago Food Policy Action Council.

On Sunday, the school district announced it will continue that service into the summer with its LunchStop meal program, offering free lunches to students ages 18 and under at school sites across the city. Those locations will operate from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on weekdays through Aug. 25.

“Access to nutritious meals is essential for children to enjoy a healthy and productive summer, and we are pleased to be able to greatly expand access to the CPS LunchStop program this year,” CPS CEO Forrest Claypool said in a statement. “Working with our partners, CPS is helping to fight child hunger and provide thousands of lunches to kids throughout the city.”

Homeschooling can make a big difference in a child's life.

The arrest of a California couple accused of abusing their 10 children — including waterboarding them, shooting them with crossbows and pouring scalding water on them, prosecutors said — is the latest case to raise questions about the oversight of home schooling.

The couple, Ina Rogers and Jonathan Allen, never sent their children to the local public schools in Fairfield, California, and school officials there said they did not have contact with them. Authorities have said the children lived in squalor and described intentional abuse that led to puncture wounds, burns, bruising and injuries consistent with being shot with a pellet gun. Rogers was charged Wednesday with nine counts of felony child abuse, and Allen, her husband, faces nine counts of felony torture and six counts of felony child abuse. They deny the charges.

The case comes four months after the 13 children of David Allen Turpin and Louise Ann Turpin were found bound, shackled and malnourished at their Perris, California, home in January after one of the children managed to escape and tell authorities that her 12 siblings were being held by their parents.

And it follows the deadly crash in March in which a car believed to be carrying the eight members of the Hart family plunged off a California cliff. Police said Jennifer Hart, who had faced child abuse allegations in three states, was drunk when she pulled off the coastal highway and intentionally drove the GMC Yukon with her wife and six children off the cliff.

The children in all three cases had been taught at home by their parents.

Ghetto mom's will have them roasting stolen weenies and heating tortillas on stove burners in the mornings.

That aside, does anyone give a shit what Arne Duncan or any former Obama administrative figure has to say?

It does my heart good to see you shun racist views.

My former roommate's dogwalker's cousin has a response to this.

How much pot did you smoke as a developing child? Holy cow.

Ghetto mom's? Racist and poor English. Psychologists should prescribe patients with self-esteem issue a daily visit to this place.
