The Facebook Thread

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

:headscratch: Didn't we have plenty of assholes just like Whack9's former friend long before Garland became AG?

Facebook should sort its dumbest into Faceplant and Facepalm platforms.

That kind of thing is why I don't do Facebook. I don't think I could stand such a barrage or even a glancing blow of such ignorance.
Agree 100%
Thanks. Just seeing stuff like that is depressing and would make a goddamn caveman go back inside on a sunny day. Awful terrible bullshit nonstop.

Facebook isn't so bad if you know how to lock it down.

There have been plenty of assholes for years, but I think (a) they've gotten worse; and (b) they've gotten a wider unfettered voice.

Yeah, but I blame Dolt .45, COVIDiots and the Qorons for that more than I do Garland.

I honestly can't tell if this is a troll or if it's real. Found on FB. But real people are agreeing with it.

The armed guard is real, idk about the mother.
Manatee School for the Arts in Palmetto employs school guardian with military-style rifle

... After the shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School last February, Florida lawmakers passed a law requiring all school to have armed security. Most districts met the requirement through a combination of school resource officers and guardians.

In order to become a guardian, Verdercia completed the 144-hour training course that the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office ran for the school district, plus additional training to be qualified to carry the rifle. District general counsel Mitch Teitelbaum said while school district guardians are trained using 9-millimeter Glocks, charter schools have the freedom to arm their guardians with other weapons....

Not everyone agrees with Jones’ approach.

“You don’t walk around with an assault rifle strapped to your chest in a school. That is not the normal policy of police agencies,” said Walt Zalisko, a retired police chief who now owns a Daytona Beach-based global investigative group and police management consulting business.

Zalisko said it is best practice to keep rifles locked up within a police car or in a secure location, and he said guardians or school resource officers are more effective when they are able to regularly engage with students, rather than viewing their job as solely stopping a mass shooter....
This is a routine sight in some Latin American countries. I don't like it but have not talked with locals about it.
