Commented on UN plan to demand developed countries restrict eating meat, eat bugs instead

What is really causing deforestation? Land intensive "green" wind and solar electric operations. In Scotland, according to the government's forestry agency, 13.1 million trees have been cut down, just on govenrment land, and not including those cut on private land, to put up wind and solar "farms". Ancient forests in German are under constant attack to put up wind and solar, from the famed Black Forest in the south to the Reinhardtswald, the ancient forest that was the setting of Grimms Fairy Tales in the north, and many in between. Great swaths of the the Amazon Rain Forest, called the "lungs of the planet" are being clear cut for balsa wood for wind turbine blades.

The carbon cult nazis want to destroy lots of trees to put up their wind and solar eyesores, but blames farms for human food for "global warming". That is pure BS.

Commented on Elon Musk says Ireland's prime minister "hates the Irish people"

It was not many years ago that the Irish people voted to end automatic citizenship by birth within Ireland and limited citizenship to those born in Ireland of at least one Irish parent. That Constitutional referendum passed overwhelmingly and was proposed in order to stop illegal aliens in the UK from flying on a domestic flight to Northern Ireland and crossing the border into Ireland to give birth so the child could get a European citizenship. It is not likely that the Irish public has changed their opinion of illegal aliens since that referendum passed by a landslide.

Varadkar is as woke and as globalist as it gets, and he is going hog wild on open borders. Ireland does need someone like Connor McGregor challenging this nonsense, and it is good to see him stepping up to the challenge.

There needs to be a special federal grand jury empanelled after Trump regains the presidency to investigate and criminally indict all of those who have been engaged in the criminal conspiracy to thwart our immigration laws. Federal officials from Biden and Mayorkas on down need to be investigated and charged and so do all of those running these crooked NGOs. The grand jury and the trials need to be in a district in rural Texas to enhance convictions.

Commented on Our School Board should move to more choice in BCS--Revised and updated

In the real world, the term "first rate" and "public school" rarely go together anymore, and that is the fault of the teachers unions and education establishment. What public schools were decades ago is gone with the wind and will never come back. School choice is as important as quality, and competition will make education better.

Big Bob: If you truly "think BC teachers are great," then don't act like the 'hit dog and yelp' when someone other than yourself takes the position that there are failing schools in America, they offering the bona fide solution toward correction; you believing that all negative inferences are toward local teachers.

Actions such as this reveals your Leftist stripes of being someone with something to hide, or worse, someone with an inability to reason a truth.

Geees I must be older than u guys. "Colored" people was the polite term that polite ppl used to refer to Negro race. The rude term was the N word. Negro wasnt used much either,because when said, it was often mispronounced sounding a lot like the N word. Around 1970 Negroes decided they wanted 2b called Black or Blacks. Being polite we agreed. Then it changed to Afro-America. Later Al Sharpton realizing he needed a bigger minority army invented, black & brown ppl, which meant of course "all ppl of the world" vs. white ppl. In a few yrs it changed to "ppl of color." Which sounds a lot lik "people of society" or "ppl of wealth." They like that over just the term "colored." However I must say I hav color too...I'm not th crayon color of white. All ppl of all races r diff shades of color. I get confused tho. When is a white Negro, a black person? Seems to me that person had privilege when growing up. I know some Caucasians that r so dark, one would confuse them as African. Stop the nonsense

Commented on 3 scientific graphs that show there is no "climate crisis"

Every dire warning issued by the climate alarmists that has passed the date by which it was supposed to have happened has not happened or even come close. These Chicken Littles are batting ZERO on their predictions. What person in their right mind would believe a word they spout? There are plenty of common sense scientists who say they are full of bull.

The public schools need competition.

People who pay taxes need relief from failing schools.

MONEY IS AVAILABLE FOR UNDERSERVED STUDENTS.
The 2023 Appropriations Act Expands Eligibility for the Opportunity Scholarship Program
On October 3, 2023, the North Carolina State Budget (House Bill 259) became law. The new law authorizes several changes to the State’s Opportunity Scholarship Program, which will begin with the 2024-2025 school year.

Changes for the 2024-2025 school year include:

Removal of the income cap for families to receive the scholarship; now all North Carolina students in kindergarten through 12th grade will be eligible for the Scholarship regardless of income.
Prior public school enrollment is no longer a requirement for eligibility for the scholarship.
A student’s scholarship amount will be based on household income.
Scholarship amounts will range from approximately $3,000 to approximately $7,000.
The Opportunity Scholarship application for the 2024-2025 school year will open on February 1, 2024. Families must apply by March 1 to receive priority consideration

The private sector does darn near anything better than government, and that includes education. Private schools, on average, spend less per pupil than public schools but achieve much better education results. Those opportunities should be there for all students, not just children of the rich. The teachers union and much of the education establishment is injecting political indoctrination into public schools. A poll last year in North Carolina found that 71% of North Carolina parents are concerned about political indoctrination in the public schools. Competition makes everything better and that includes schools.

RE: Test Scores for Private Schools.
In accordance with G.S. 115C-549, 550 and G.S. 115C-557, 558, each private school must administer a nationally standardized test or other nationally standardized equivalent measurement selected by the chief administrator to all students enrolled and regularly attending grades 3, 6, 9, and 11 each year. The nationally standardized test or other equivalent measurement selected by the chief administrator must measure achievement in the areas of English grammar, reading, spelling and mathematics in grades 3 and 6. For grade 9, the nationally standardized test or other equivalent measurement selected must measure either (a) achievement in the areas of English grammar, reading, spelling, and mathematics or (b) competencies in the verbal and quantitative areas. The grade 11 test must measure competencies in the verbal and quantitative areas. Non-public school law also requires that the test results be kept on file at the school's office for one year....

The writer has lots of interesting ideas, but misses the point of vouchers. They take money from public schools that educate all children and send it to private schools that have tons of discriminatory admission policies. I want my tax dollars going to public schools that are accountable to everyone in the community, not just to private schools. Where are test scores for private schools? How do we know kids are learning anything at all?
