After one thread fell into bickering, you started another one that had absolutely nothing to do with WPS, in an attempt to show... what, exactly?
Let me be clear here.
A little over a year ago, the spouse of an ex-employee began posting here about what happened to his wife. At first, it sounded like there might be legitimate concerns involving the district and their actions. This quickly gave way to a near take over of the Schools forum by one individual who's every post was practically the same - the district is crooked, they wronged my wife. It went on. And on. And on. After it finally stopped, after the damage was done, and after the smoke had cleared it was evident that I had made a grave mistake in allowing the debacle to continue on as long as it had.
Make no mistake, it will not happen again. The minute I get a hint of what could turn into a repeat of the events of last year, I'm shutting it down.
If you have a point to make, make it. If you have information you feel is vitally important for the community to know, share it. If you feel so strongly the security guards were wronged, and based on the results of the trial it certainly seems that is the case, present it here, by all means. As a taxpayer who is incredibly tired of investing in a school district with a piss poor ROI, I want to know how my tax dollars are being misspent.
But don't you dare come here and accuse me of stifling free speech.
The first post was locked because you decided to get into a pissing match with another member. The second was locked due to me getting a hint of a potential ongoing crusade and because it had nothing to do with WPS.
Now, we can continue to go back and forth. You can accuse me of being a district lap dog, here to do my masters' bidding and keep people from posting negative comments about our seriously screwed up district. Or, you can continue to try to post about the security guards who were wrongly accused of a crime and terminated from their positions, while 560 other people are getting ready to lose their jobs. Or you can take it all to the school board, throw it in their faces, and demand answers.
The choice is yours.
