Police start following a group of Black kids. One says “fuck 12” so @ccsdpd starts detaining them. One kid starts record, and he’s almost curb stomped by another out of control CCSD officer This is an opportunity to show some leadership @evelyngmorales @SuptJaraCCSD

At the Route 91 concert in Las Vegas, he ran off stage rather than tell people someone was shooting. And the crowd thought it was fire works or a malfunction sound system 31 people died at the scene, 413 people had gunshot wounds Take care of our own? #Oct1

The average child asks 200-300 questions a day. So if an elementary school teacher has 20 students, they are asked a minimum of 4,000 questions a day… 4,000! If your partner/spouse is an elementary school teacher, THIS is why they don’t want any questions when they get home.
