   What a sh*t show! Shame on the 4 that voted Ficke Bradford into the BOE President spot (cringe worthy that she voted for herself) and who the hell gave her that fricking gavel?! We thought Bobby was bad? This is one of the most childish and disgusting displays of power and petulance I’ve witnessed in a long time. Comical if it wasn’t so revolting. For the 3rd time BOE President and her cronies Lackluster Lazzari and Dr. Barry XXX stormed from the room for a ‘time out’ because they can’t handle the valid criticisms of the parents trying to advocate for the rights of their children. Dr. Barry XXX even admitted the masks are ineffective – yet he continues to support smothering your child and his/her right to breathe. And then Ficke Bradford shuts the meeting down and sends everyone home saying we’ll resume in 30 minutes virtually because she has absolutely zero ability to run a meeting. The 30 minute break was a blessed relief as those of us who stayed were graced by the impassioned words of a sophomore experiencing mental and emotional grief and anguish over her experiences the last two years. Her impassioned pleas were met by the cackling obliviousness of Chan Ding wondering how the meeting was going to proceed in light of Ficke Bradford’s tantrum. Seriously, this was probably the most disgusting and out of touch moment of the night seen only by those who refused to leave after Ficke Bradford’s meltdown. Chan Ding was cackling much like a certain VP in the face of a student’s plea to be heard, to be seen, to have her mental collapse validated. Ficke Bradford who Cried Wolf once again returned and resumed the meeting – crisis averted! But many who intended to speak had left. This is one to watch. The kids came out to. Ficke Bradford, Lazzari, Dr. XXX Altshuler & Chan Ding all need to be removed from this board. They’re a disgrace. By the way, why aren’t more calling out the irony of #seethestudent? What a joke.

   Some of the wisdom of Dr. Barry Altshuler from last night follows. This ultimately prompted the public comment (“Barry, I’m sorry if you’re afraid of your own shadow…” that caused Ficke Bradford to illegally shut down the meeting). Barry, in his own words, admits the masks they have been forcing our children to wear don’t work and the jab he’s repeatedly encouraging parents to experiment on their children with doesn’t work against Omicron:
   “I have to say something about vaccines, though. I think there’s a lot of misinformation out there. And the vaccines for the youngest kids have not only proven to be helpful but they have also been proven to be safe (Barry, have you heard of myocarditis? How about convulsions & seizures? Kawasaki disease? The list goes on and I’m sure a doctor like you would provide your patient with information on the potential side effects before administering a drug.). The youngest kids, the kids from 11 down to 5, get 1/3 of the dose, it’s a much smaller amount (ummmm… they’re a 1/3 of the size 🙄), and therefore they have significantly less side effects. (Well, well. See there. You do know there are side effects.) I want to encourage any families that are on the fence there to really talk to your pediatrician, talk to your healthcare practitioner, and give some thought to vaccinating your kids because it is just another step in protecting your kids… (Not transcribing his ridiculous snow day analogy used as an attempt to explain why he’s abdicating his responsibility for putting our kids in masks to Hunt and the administration) we are trying to do what is best for all of the kids in this 220 Community. Not just the loudest ones. (What? Who are you referring to? The 8 year old from Countryside or the sophomore who pled with you to recognize the mental toll this is having on her?) Not just the ones that are unfortunately being affected by this. We want everybody to do well. We want everybody’s social emotional needs to be met. And, we want them to be safe. (What Pollyanna world does the doctor live in?) The keyword here is still safe. The wonderful thing about medicine is it is not stagnant, it keeps changing as the research changes. What we know now about Covid we did not know six months or a year ago. We know now that cloth masks, which most of you are wearing, don’t work very well. (Duh.) These (gesturing to his own mask) work better and N95 work even better… We also know that the vaccine didn’t do very well against Omicron.…. (Bingo! But go ahead. Jab your kid.)”
