Opponents of Washoe County’s curriculum proposal camped on the eastern side of the entrance to a packed local school board meeting on Tuesday, wearing MAGA hats and carrying signs that read “No CRT,” “CRT teaches racism,” and “The School Board works for the people!”

To combat concerns about ideological indoctrination, the Nevada Family Alliance has proposed outfitting teachers with body cameras to ensure they aren’t indoctrinating students in classrooms.

“You guys have a serious problem with activist teachers pushing politics in the classroom, and there’s no place for it, especially for our fifth graders,” Karen England, the group’s executive director, told trustees Tuesday.

On the other side of the entrance, students, parents and teachers wore green T-shirts and carried signs with slogans including “Amplify Student Voices” to signify support for “Washoe County School District Students for Change,” a group that has pushed for curriculum additions.

1. I just heard on MSNBC that CRT is NOT taught in classes k-12,

I didn't catch who said it because I wasn't really paying attention but he said it more than once. We need to send all these idiots (parents) back to school. Maybe starting at K to teach them how to play well with others.

2. Actual facts don't matter to these morons.

8. I like the idea of cameras in the classrooms but not for this reason

I think it protects students and teachers. Also I like the ideas of parents being able to observe their children throughout the day.

3. Ask them to define or explain critical race theory

Quite possibly my favorite movie line of all time, certainly for any movie from 2012:

4. Need to set up "Censored Knowledge" websites for students

Create a place where students can learn about things that are being censored. Give them a brief overview, and links to the very best information available on forbidden topics, including a discussion of why some folks don't want them to know.

5. According to Wikipedia, a theme of critical race theory is that white supremacy exists (Say what?!?)

Wikipedia: Critical race theory

Critical race theory is loosely unified by two common themes: first, that white supremacy, with its societal or structural racism, exists...

Someone needs to correct that to say that belief in white supremacy exists.

7. Are you saying it doesn't exist?

‘Cause, you know, it does.

6. CRT is the biggest problem facing NV, I'm sure.

9. "How many teachers are shape-shifting body-snatching alien lizards?"

10. And these would be the people who'd want to ban cameras

when there's an incident involving the police... which of
course helps prove CRT.
