Folks, if you are old enough to remember the Vietnam War or Police Action as it was officially called by the Politicians In Washington DC, you will remember the old “Hippy” slogan Make Love-Not War! Well, us folks that survived that WAR, those “baby boomers” like me, who didn’t see action and those that did see action did make love and created a lot of babies in the process. And our babies are now having babies who are attending Cleveland County Schools. And those babies are not receiving the good and sound basic education that a whole lot of our tax dollars are paying for. And a good fraction of OUR grandchildren are also being bullied at school in the process. And, Cleveland County Schools are NOT doing a damn thing about it. Except to tell lies about how good they are on one hand and covering-up with the other.
So, now our WAR CRY must be, Make WAR, Not Love!! Make WAR on the Bullying process as well as the cover-ups enabled by the School Board . And STOP funding for all school systems (including CCS) that are enabling this bullying process to happen and grow exponentially! While students and whole schools are failing at a shocking rate.
The Parents Against Bullying NC, Inc. is a good group to conduct our WAR against bullying and cover-up. And, they deserve our support and funding. As a Non-Profit organization, donations to them are tax exempt. Robert A recommends purchasing your tickets to this good cause by check made out to a significant amount over the price as a donation for tax purposes. Or drop a nice check in the collection basket, or whatever. Invite all your friends and neighbors to come out to this function and do the same. Also, inform your friends that this is a good cause and send a donation check to Parents Against Bullying NC, Inc (406 W. Warren St. Shelby, NC 28150) and drop it in the mail. (Note that this address is at the Parents Against Bullying Headquarters. the Spaghetti Dinner is as noted on the Flyer below. See you there at the Church on Saturday March 4, 2023.
Also, Invite anybody else you can to attend and also donate as much as they can. Let’s get this ball rolling in our WAR against bullying. If you are a golfer, organize a golf tournament in their name. And, above all, call your County Commissioners and DEMAND that the County chips in with a large “grant.” Immediately. If they don’t, remind them that 2024 is not that far away. And Robert A and others may be itching to take their place and set some accountability requirements on CCS operations.
So says Robert A.
