Opening up all Schools and Youth Sports now

[dad4]

Well if voters were not sheep, they would wake up and see the injustice the D governors (mainly) have been on the school re-opening issue. They would further come to the realization that the teachers unions in these large cities are not working on behalf of kids/parents. They could care less.

If this doesn't break the cycle of dependency of voting mainly D in CA, nothing will. You have the best example in decades of where D priorities lie. And it sure isn't kids. It is all about the public unions.

We are at a year now and millions of kids still are not back at school. The dems who claim to be the party of science are absolutely ignoring the science and data relating to schools being open.

Speaking of sheep realizing they've been misled, how long until you admit that masks are actually a good idea?

Or are you still part of the flock on that one?

I still stick by decades of research on the subject that the CDC published. The one that showed even in a medical setting with professionals, they didn't find that masks worked to prevent the spread of the flu.

I further look around the world and find that even in countries with high mask compliance, there seems little to show for it.

Or comparing FL and CA. FL doesn't have mask mandates, CA does. And yet FL has lower cases per million vs CA which has a mask mandate and has severely restricted schools and biz.

So that is where I stand.

Then who is accountable for this organization? Who do they represent? Who benefits from their actions? Not the kids who have been on remote learning since last March. Not the parents who have been fighting to open schools against this union. If I was helping fund an organization that was doing harm to children I would cut off my support. No money means their BS stops.

We can start with CTA acting on their own accord and pretending to represent. Just because a teacher is a beneficiary does not mean they agree or support.

How much money does this union take in? What a waste when they should be reinvesting it back into their teachers. I didn’t realize what a machine this union was and how bad they are for our kids. Teachers you are accountable for what your union does. The money you give them is causing this. Don’t feel you get a free pass because it is the union.

We get the awesome choice of paying union dues, and thereby passively supporting it, or not, and then having to be without legal representation and support when crazy ass parents sue us.
Better yet, some of us work for local chapters that agree with going back and in fact are back. We can’t separate those two affiliations.

Wish we had a leader like this. Glad to see the governor we have is being recalled.

Is it not true you have a choice to not pay union dues in California? If you defund the organizations doing harm to our children and remove the politicians that are beholden to them, you may start to see things change. If you are forced to pay these dues then I ask you speak against the unions doing this harm.

Wait, are you proposing that magats engage in rhe “cancel culture” they always whine about? Great, let’s do it I wonder if the CTA can weather the storm that Mein Pillow, InfoWars, Lou Dobbs, Bill O’Reilly, Roger Ailes, Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, Gina Carano, and their trumpanzee ilk could not. I think I know how that will go.

You should stop paying taxes then. Or maybe storm the Capitol and overthrow democracy.

Good luck with your anti-right to choose, anti-religion (other than the christian cult), anti-human rights, anti-environment, anti-kids not getting killed in school shootings, anti-living wages, anti-anything whatsoever that involves even the slightest amount of empathy and humanity party.

So who in orange county has heard from there High schools that sports practices are starting back up and play is scheduled to begin mid March regardless or in conjunction to what the governor may announce tomorrow?

I don't know about high schools, but my boy's U-little team was allowed to have full contact practice at OC Great Park today.

Gosh, how dare teachers ask for a safe work environment?

Many teachers are ready to go back, unfortunately they don't have a voice as powerful as some of their shameful union leaders. The unions are on a roll right now, faint taste of power - kinda like an aphrodisiac. But you are never one to pass up political theater cloaked in social justice.

Anti right to choose? Like a kids choice to go to school? But thanks for the PSA..

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released new guidelines last Friday for safely reopening K-12 schools and Youth Sports

Community, Work, and School

Actions that communities can take to slow the spread of COVID-19.

www.cdc.gov

Taking together with the latest Covid numbers

COVID-19 Home

covid19.ca.gov

All Schools and Youth Sports Should all be open now according to the CDC if I'm reading these numbers and documents correctly. Please double check me and I'm missing something?

Lets get this CDC guidelines in place instead of the more restrictive state tiers for education and youth sports. Put pressure on the CDPH to get this done now.

2/16 update:
LA County: 29 cases per 100K
7.2% Postivity Rate

SD: 25.9 case per 100k
6.4% Postivity Rate

OC: 21 cases per 100k
7.8% Postivity Rate

CDC Thresholds
Moderate / Yellow
10-49 Cases Per 100k
5.0-7.9% Postivity Rate
Sports and Extracurricular activities occur

I am ready to referee in April. I get my second vaccine on Sunday and had COVID last spring, so my immunity will be fairly high.

So that is where I stand.

If you’re following CDC research, you may want to read this:

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

CDC provides credible COVID-19 health information to the U.S.

www.cdc.gov

or this:

Community and Close Contact Exposures Associated with COVID-19 ...

Community and close contact exposures continue to drive the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. CDC and other public health authorities recommend community mitigation strategies ...

www.cdc.gov

The first study shows that masks reduce the spread of covid. The second shows that restaurants increase the spread of covid.

Now that you know the CDC research supports masks and opposes indoor dining, are you going to take up masks and stop indoor dining?

Or do research papers only count if you like the conclusion?

I guess extorting our kids education was effective. I will be curious to see where the money actually goes, I assume a big commission for union leaders. Still less than ideal but at this point I guess us beggars can't be choosers.

California lawmakers reach $6.5 billion deal to open schools

California legislators have agreed on a $6.5 billion school reopening plan aimed at getting students back in classrooms this spring.

I sure hope you dont have to wear mask. Maybe a "V" patch to let us all know as you run by us that we can;t catch Rona from you.

Whiny magats think literally everything is some nefarious conspiracy theory. This dumbf**k thinks that money to be used to safely reopen schools is instead being used to line the pockets of an evil cabal of teachers and their union leadership. WTF?

It really makes you wonder how this collective mental break by trumpanzees happened. I mean, this dumbs**t wants schools to reopen, presumably safely, yet he’s got nothing but self-pity and some fake conspiracy theory to make himself feel bad about getting exactly what he was hoping for. Probably got this nonsense from Parler now that it’s back up and running.

Gosh, how dare teachers ask for a safe work environment?

Its a good thing our law enforcement, fire department,doctors and nurses, grocery workers, supply chain workers etc. aren't sitting at home like the teachers. Our kids education is essential! Do your job like the thousands of other essential workers are!
