Imagine the indoctrination taking place inside Kingsland Junior/Senior High School in Spring Valley, Minnesota, when they have to ask the neighborhood residents to remove their Trump flags in order to create “peace in the neighborhood.”
Quite remarkable.
UPDATE: School Superintendent responds via Facebook:
Will we create peace by removing every Democrat banner we find or will that be recognized as what removing Trump signs is: a killing of free speech?
So-called “peace” is up to the eye of the beholder
Don’t start no trouble
Won’t BE no trouble
nimrodman- LOVE ^^^^^^
Always like the George Orwell reference as it will always be relevant.
“ and while creating more peace, it would be helpful if all those d$#@n boats and jet skis on the lake did the same. A reminder also, those pickup trucks and tractors parading around could help keep Minnesota more peaceful, too. Thanking you in advance from the Peace Advisory. //S//
“the indoctrination taking place”
Way past time to start yanking federal $$$ from these schools!
Way past time for liquidation with extreme prejudice. “peacefully” though. only “peacefully”.
Yes, I completely agree with D_I, said the retired public school teacher.
;I hope they answered those snowflakes with two words which I won’t type here.
…and the horse you rode in on!
In the final analysis?
There will be blood.
If your last word is OFF or YOU, I wholeheartedly agree.
First, unless they are paying the bills it is not their neighborhood it is your neighborhood.
Tell them to get used to it, or go take a flying leap. They work for you. That is YOUR school that you pay for.
TwoLaine, that’s right, the property taxes pay for the school district
Darn right they do! And your taxes pay their salaries so they can write their stupid and threatening letters on school stationery and school envelopes and mail them with school postage.
WOW…. someone “hacked” their letterhead. Imagine thaaat??
No. They are claiming someone misused one of their return envelopes.
It’s a common form of fraud.
Hey oldersoul, your point is taken; however, it was sarcasm from Rosemary B.
Lol return envelopes don’t have the address of the receiver in the upper left corner, that’s the sender. Just an observation. ?
So….somethings fishy
Smaller organizations and businesses do that all the time with their enclosed return envelopes. They place their own address on one of their standard printed envelopes.
It’s a common practice.
Well that’s good. Don’t make me come down there, Kingsland!
Here in commie Minneapolis, I’m thinking on Halloween I’ll offer tiny little candy bars with a Biden wrapper or giant chocolate bars with Trump wrapper. Take your pick, you commie spawn.
.That is AWESOME, Sentient! I am soooo stealing that!
I make up bags of 3-4 pieces of candy to hand out. I make 75 bags (I have backup candy) so I can add or subtract from 75 to see how many kids stopped by.
I’m going to have a kettle of candy bags with just two or three pieces of candy marked “Biden. You coulda chose Trump with 3 times the candy, but you didn’t. You are foolish, Grasshopper, ” and a kettle of bags stuffed full of candy marked “You chose Trump… you coulda chose Biden, with less candy. You are wise, Grasshopper.”
I’ll let the little blighters choose and the parents deal with their kid’s choice.
I already have tons of snack size candy ready to roll, but it’s no biggie to spend $20 – $30 more to pull off your idea.
Excellent! Thanks for the idea.
Ummm … why would the “pre-addressed” letter have a RETURN ADDRESS for the school?
BS
Because they used one of their own standard envelopes, and addressed it to themselves as a return piece. Many smaller organizations do that.
You can see the hoaxster’s label pasted over the addressee field.
Not trying to defend them, but this sort of mail fraud is common. People steal business envelopes and pretend to be someone else.
Thank you for alerting us to this fact. I am glad the school is contacting law enforcement, not just denying the story. I hope law enforcement does their due diligence, including having the person answer under oath. This is a step above just stealing the signs.
It was Steve Scully.
Someone should write back, “This is a wonderful opportunity to teach the students about diversity of thought, tolerance and respect. Alternatively, this could be a wonderful opportunity to search for a new school principal and administration.”
There is a telephone number for the school office:
507-346-7276
Perhaps we should call tomorrow to ask if they would like the rest of us to remove our flags and signs as well, to “express solidarity” with their cause. (/SARC)
Except the school is claiming they did not send that letter.
They are claiming that an individual misused one of their envelopes, and they have contacted police.
See above.
“the school is claiming they did not send that letter.”
Let them prove it. But don’t let the FBI get involved because they might try and place the blame on Gen. Flynn.
Sorry if I am not inclined to believe them.
Yup. Kinda like ol’ Steve Scully’s twitter account was hacked. For the third time.
Actually, I am pleased at the schools response.
I fully expected the article to say the Schools response was something like “He!! YES, we sent the letter officially!
WE have an obligation to provide our students a safe space, orange man bad, blah, blah.
So, I think either leave the school alone, or call them to express appreciation for how they handled it.
There explanation IS plausible, they figured out WHAT happened, WHO did it, and got the information to the recipient of the letter, and to LE, and to the Public, very quickly.
Not like some of these “hate crime” hoaxes, where the story is on page one for 3 days, and that it was a hoax is months later, on page 23.
Seems to me the 1st Amendment won on this one, and that’s a GOOD thing.
I can not help but think if this election was a free and FAIR election with voter ID required, President Trump would win 47 / 48 States.
I would give him all 57 that Obama said we have
/sarc
My first thought as well…second thought: False Flag attack. I think Sundance’s rule of waiting for more facts to appear would be wise. I smell a setup, and ‘we’re’ the target
I would think this was a Babylon Bee article except….well, the state of education in 2020!
I hope everyone that got a letter goes out and buys a bigger flag! What is the matter with these people? (Rhetorical question – I already KNOW the answer!)
My reply if I received the letter:
“What a wonderful suggestion. ALL of my windows now have Trump flags and I’ve put larger flags throughout my yard. I believe this should bring much needed peace to the school and neighborhood. God forbid I hoard my inner peace only on my property. God Bless and MAGA2020.”
My “anonymous” neighbor asked me not to put up my Trump sign again after it was stolen, which I reported to the police. Today, I bought two more along with a huge 3×5 banner that will hang from my garage door. Nutz is correct!
Reply to request. Thank you for your concern. No, the flag stays up. Enjoy your life, loser. MAGA 2020. Fo mo yeerz.
“Fo mo yeerz.”
ROTFLOL!!!!
My 9th grade English teacher, Mrs. Kravitz, would have flogged me to within an inch of my life, had I written that.
P.S. She positively reeked of Winstons. You could smell them from the far corner of the last row. Tough lady. Learned much. Much respect. Still stank of Winstons, though.
Not happening
If I lived around there, I would direct some Language towards those administrators that my mother would not have approved of me using. However, she would have approved of the message.
I’d double my TRUMP signs and American flag displays!
Absolutely.
Just did!
Except the school is claiming they did not send that letter.
See above.
Yeah, no
sharia law is their goal!
I would begin by tripling the number of Trump flags I have up and doubling their size!
Gosh, that is exactly what entered my mind instantly!
Open war is upon you.. whether you would risk it or not.
lord of the rings.
Submit ..
Conform ..
Obey ..
Sieg Heil !!
You forgot to click the heels of your boots, Leon.
No cookies for you!
up yours.
Coup d’œil: military-style ambush by a non-military force has failed (OCH), law enforcement ambush by Lawfare Blog has failed (Impeachment), medical ambush by TWANLOC MDs has failed (Fauci / China / CDC), direct assault by CIA / NGOs is underway (voting fraud, disinformation operations, assassinations, and — in advanced stages of planning — ambush and direct assault by a military force).
I’d just get a bigger flag or two.
My family is from Minnesota, and I used to be proud of the relationship. I went to school there. I am appalled at what has happened in the years since I left. Egad. Where are the tar and feathers?
hell no.
Honestly, the Biden Harris flags and signs offend me. A lot!
I have a feeling there might be more to this, but it does fit the pattern.
i have been disappointed in the Administrations response to physical violence against us. If the Justice Department had put these thugs in jail from the very first rally after inauguration, it might have sent a message. Political intimidation was very much on the Founders mind
My point being, go ahead and try attacking folks who attend a democrat event and see what happens.
Well, if I could, find anyone who actually attended a Harris/Biden event, hell yeah I’d attack them. I’d also attack unicorns ;o)
I would immediately reply with where they can go and what they can do to themselves. —read—
Freaking lunatics
If it were my house there would be 50 Trump flags in the yard tomorrow. And possibly a small blimp.
I want a Trump blimp NOW!
Absolutely ! Do Not Forget The Blimp !!! ?
I had no idea there were blimps. Thank you.
? I like the way you think trumpforthewin!! That would be what I would do, except I didn’t think of the blimp!
Here in small town northern Minnesota I delivered an 8’x4′ Trump sign to a very small house on a busy street around 7 last night. Next door neighbor has Hiden signs up and all along they have not been able to keep their big pie-hole shut; they love to hear themselves complain about small Trump signs.
Would have loved to have seen the complainer’s face this morning upon discovering an 8’x4′ Trump sign filling their neighbors yard!
If the evermore fascist democrats win this November, they, with a packed Supreme Court, won’t just be asking people to give up their human rights / Bill of Rights. People will be fined and even imprisoned if they don’t.
We are now in a
finishing your sentence … ^&% storm?
Obviously the individual living across from the Kingsland Junior/Senior High School needs a bigger Trump display.
on the topic of “triggered”
I tried to visit twitter today,…. as I decided to make an account last Friday.
I have already been thrown off Twitter bc someone responded to a President Trump tweet with a throwing up emoji….. and I recklessly responded that I hoped they choked on their vomit.
Seriously. I just got put in twitter time out. whaaat the???
Reckless… but honest.
They don’t deal with honesty very well.
Turns out this is fake news. Look at the tweet from the school system posted by Oldersoul above.
Video billboard with loop of Trump rallies would go up next day at my house.
What about diversity of thought and critical thinking schools are supposed to be fostering?
Ellis, permit me to suggest that you include video footage from the 30K vehicle rally in Florida this week. The Hispanic heritage folks in FL get it. !No comunismo! I don’t think the Dims were anticipating this particular turn of events. ???
Get that welfare mom a job.
My reply would simply be: Jimmy Crack Corn…
This is what happens when fascism has a drunk one night stand and makes a baby with snowflakey wokeness.
“Do only as we say… To make peace and love for our fragile neighborhood.”
I was going to say, the recipient should blanket their home with Trump signs and banners, but it appears that it was sent from a neighborhood parasite (“Apparently the individual used a stamped, pre-addressed envelope contained in an application for Educational Benefits {Free and Reduced Meals”}). It should be easy to pick out the parasite that sent it, they’ll have a Bid3n sign on their front lawn…that they never mow.
BTW…since when are Free and Reduced Meals considered an EDUCATIONAL BENEFIT?
Yeah…ahh…
NO.
JUST NO.
Send them this to cheer them up ??????

General Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs should be cashiered (FIRED) immediately. His latest escapade is publicly bucking PDJT on pulling all US troops out of Afghanistan before Christmas. That is insubordination – plain and simple.
Add that to the “photo op” statement and bucking the President on renaming military bases and it is clearly a trend. Milley should know better. The President is the COMMANDER IN CHIEF. Milley should go. I wouldn’t even give him the decency to resign. FIRE his ass; take his ID; debrief him and walk his ass off the WHite House grounds. He can call a taxi to get home.
His conduct has been – imho – detrimental to the morale, good will and discipline of the service.

C’mon kimosaabe; calm down.
I was just thinking about Milley and what he was up to with stabbing POTUS in the back.
Apparently you’re not aware of nor care to follow the guidelines. Is that pretty much it?

I’m pushing 75 years of age. Cut me some slack…………….please.
Happens to the best of us. =)
There should be one troop left in Afghanistan come Christmas and that one troop should be Miley.
Ouch.
Perfect solution.
That won’t end well for the high school.
The school is claiming they did not send that letter, that someone misused one of their meal aid application return envelopes, and they have contacted law enforcement.
See above.
Is that like Scully claiming his Twitter account was hacked after he got caught?
Thank God the teachers union willingly set up “Distance Learning” for parents who are fed up with the libtard U propaganda system of public schools.
Um….no.
Flags stay up until ALL of your students AND faculty/administrators can get 100% on a basic Constitution exam. No exceptions, no excuses. Take all the time you want. Oh, did we mention there are no “Do Overs”?
“…we just think it would be in good taste to put your flag…”
Please don’t ask us where we think you should put *your* flag.
This is what winning looks like, folks.
What sick demented group or individual goes to the trouble to fake a letter to a Trump supporting neighbor of the school via a bogus return envelope?
Maybe a teacher there who’s a sick demented TDS leftist. A bunch of them in Minneapolis I hear.
My guess is a far left family heavy into public benefits.
BTW, mail fraud is a FEDERAL CRIME.

NOT for dems they are exempt
This article brought to mind a meme someone sent me:
Guess who will still be your friend, no matter who you vote for……
Not me, I’m not friends with communists.
??
Going to need a bigger sign.
The parents/homeowners should have written back and said…..
I’ll remove my PT Flag when you and all students start reciting The Pledge of Allegiance every morning.
If I lived there I would make a quick trip to the local Republican office, buy a bunch of Trump flags and add to the total. They asked for it, give it to them!
That is an extremely rude and presumptuous letter to send to residents in the neighborhood. I guess their teachers are brainwashing them to be ‘activists’ despite not having basic manners. That’s a nope, brats.
Grammar and style indicate a grade-school level underachiever.
Conclusion: author could be student or staff.
It’s called the First Amendment and it ain’t pretty, but it’s kept us free for 244 years.
