    I think the protests are justifiable, but I think violence is not, these protests need to be peaceful and if the goon wants to invade peaceful protests with law enforcement, the army or the National Guard, then the people can see with their own eyes the blatant overreach, and the astonishing disregard for Law and Order. 

     

    Protest the wannabe king! Power to the people and democratic expression.

    But their schools are still good in general. If you pass, you did what was asked of you. If you want good grades, that's up entirely to you. Good grades can get you a scholarship, which my granddaughter just received. 40 miles north of San Antonio, in a small school, she received her fully paid scholarship because my daughter and her father kept on her to use her brain. Now she's going to Southwest College to learn flight school. The schools around where I lived where my 4 children went, were high ranked. They all passed and have careers they like doing. It's still in the students hands, along with the teachers desire to teach. Texas is actually ranked 25th, but that is still good in a country with many good schools.

    All the best. I wouldn't do it. I'm a firm believer in private schools. Maybe I'm just overly cautious.

    I wouldn't need a private school in any event, as Texas has many very good schools that are public. All my children went to them, and they were all high ranked. I'll be in the Hill Country, where there are also good schools, three of which my grandchildren went to. Education only suffers when teachers aren't doing their jobs, along with administrators. 

    This year, Texas is ranked 29th for education, both K-12 and higher education.

     

    best of luck.

    All of America has good schools, especially in the San Antonio area.

    So, you can't afford a private school it seems. Hope you have a good school all scoped out. One without too many blacks or latinos. Anytime you get a majority of  minorities the education suffers.

    I'm there every year, My family lives there, and I have many friends there. Lived there 2018, will be moving back asap.The wall is mostly useless, as they're still coming in over, under and around it. Biden again wanted to help families and those seeking asylum, which should be done. Latinos have been there all long, before we were. As long as anyone's working and not breaking the laws, they belong there as much as you or I do. We're all from immigrants. There are plenty of whites that don't do their children justice by not caring much about them. Look at how it is here with students. In the US you won't pass school unless you pass the grades. You don't pass school, good luck finding a job besides picking fruit.

    Hope you have the funds for a private school or able to reside in the Good School district.

    The taxpayers who would have to pay the multi million dollar  settlements that would follow will not be as  supportive or thrilled by this PR stunt. County attorney  must be having conniptions as it is the worst possible thing to say.

    No I am not supporting violent thugs, nor saying LEO should not defend against assaults. However, if you are one of the people who is struck by a police bullet, because you were in the wrong place at the wrong time, you will be very angry. Some police forces are  trigger happy, and innocent people suffer because of it. There are long established rules guidelines regarding the use of lethal force, and saying what he did, goes against them.

    I will agree about the rules of lethal force. But, when a person is hurling bricks at a police officer, that person should expect to be "shot Graveyard dead"

     

    Unless you're retarded and wandered away from your handler, people should know better than to go near the protests and or riots.

    Uh oh, here comes the clutching.😆

    Will be interesting to see who's arrested for funding this domestic terrorism.

    WASHINGTON (TNND) — The FBI says it is now investigating the funding behind the anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles. Some lawmakers fear that foreign influence and ideological donations are fueling the violence, and protestors are being paid. "The FBI is investigating any and all monetary connections responsible for these riots," FBI Director Kash Patel said in a statement to 'Just the News.'

    “Credible reporting now suggests that your organization has provided logistical support and financial resources to individuals engaged in these disruptive actions,” Hawley wrote. “Let me be clear: bankrolling civil unrest is not protected speech. It is aiding and abetting criminal conduct.”

    Museums are boring and pretentious.

    I actually went to the Louvre. I can't remember how many hours I had to stand in line to see the Mona Lisa. And then when you get close, there's a huge crowd of people and the painting is tiny. And it's a scam. It's an over-rated painting of the face of a woman. Who cares? 

     

    Dali on the other hand. I did see a Dali exhibition and the paintings were huge and cool. So ok, some art exhibitions are worth it. Take a trip to Europe or back home once every 5 years or however often you can afford it and go see some shows. But I don't need it on a regular basis.

     

    Music and films are available digitally online. And podcasts. 

     

    Thailand provides warm weather, nature, sunshine. 

     

    And get a hobby.  People who have nothing do to have no imagination and/or are trolling. 

     

    Small things amuse small minds.
