Fin, If it's an adult conversation how the hull did you get in on it?

Shut up Dilbert. Adults are talking.

Hiking, there isn't a NC teachers union. The source that Ford linked is a right wing agenda driven website posing as a real media outlet. There is the NC Association of Educators. They are more of a Trade Organization like the Realtors Association of Home Builders Association. I do believe it's illegal in N.C. for state employees to unionize. The NCAE also has a lobbyist branch. This is another example of why I say people against lobbyists don't understand what would happen if they got rid of lobbyists. I have my criticisms of teachers, but the NCAE is a way they can get the legislature to hear their voice. However, it's not a union. So it's an optional choice for teachers to join and they can't strike, both unlike in NY where the union threatened to strike and forced the government to bend to their will instead of considering what was really best for society.

Hiker, I do not hate anyone or anything, hate is a negative emotion which usually hurts the hater more than the hated. However, I do deeply despise hypochristians in which Ashe County is awash. Pseudo Christians always seem to respond to any criticism of their hypocrisy by accusing their critics of hating them when in fact the criticism is aimed at the hypocrisy.

True Christianity is founded on the teachings Christ not rural customs n or local culture, you will find the precepts of Christianity in Matthew 5 thru 7.
While I'm not saying there are no real Christians in Ashe County I have yet to meet them.

58ford, that's funny all the teachers I know have never heard of an actual Teachers Union here in N.C. Many would probably join if there were one. Thanks Fins I was mistaken.

Dilbert is such a simpleton, he thinks if someone doesn't do things his way, they are wrong.

Many marched in the peaceful protest here in Ashe. Many do stand up for what is right. You are just so blindsided by your own hate that you don't want to believe it.

Well hiker if there's so many good Christians where are they, and why aren't they trying to help the racists to see the light?

Unions are not illegal in NC. It's illegal to force anyone to join one. But there are several unions in the state. There is a teamsters headquarters in greensboro right off 40. The big telephone companies are unionized, or at least used to be. And UPS and FedEx employees can join unions.

Yes there is a teacher's union in NC. Here is an article about their demands back in July

I wasn't asking you about the teachers' union. However, there isn't one since unions are illegal in NC. Very judgmental there aren't you. There many real Christians in Ashe County.

Hiker, I don't know anything about teacher's unions in NC.

And I definitely did not say all Christians are racists a real Christian would never be a racist, b ut there aint many real Christians in Ashe County.

Teachers' Union in N.C.? I'm confused? Hanky, you are just as bad classifying all Christians being racists.

So you give graciously to the greater baptist church and preacher.

Home school 'em you probably don't want them to hear about evolution either. I'd rather not have my grand child around kids that bring religious fanaticism and racism to school.

How so called "Christians" can be racists is beyond my comprehension but we sure do have more than our fair share of hypochristians in Ashe County.

I would like to see proof of Simmons being for Dan Forrest, because she voted for the Dems in the primary, and if you look at the demands of the teacher's union in NC you would see that the Dems are all about indoctrination of students. I don't want my grandchildren taught about BLM and all that BS.

I thought they were off on Wednesday.

Fins I am betting no one knows the teachers are off on every Friday and only teaching 4 days a week. They clean the schools on Friday. I am betting there is nothing done that is not usually done anyway as far as the cleaning.

Endorsement from teachers is hardly a quality selling point.


So how come no one can answer why change is needed?
