Half the school board thinks Keith deserves a third chance (that's right, not his first time making inappropriate comments to a child).

They say only he can decide if he wants to step down. They did vote in favor of censuring him. The rest of the school board members that laughed during the comment and touching of a child faced no repercussion. Some even pretended to be offended during the emergency hearing.

We've been "walking past" this since at least 1961. Americans excell at ignoring our check engine lights.

    We've been walking past an awful lot for very long. We got comfortable. We got lazy. The Framers set up a pretty good system for us and after WWII and Vietnam and the civil rights movement, we basically all decided that we had fixed our society and government and we could sit back and crack open a cold one.

    After WWII a cabal of rich elites started plotting to undo everything FDRs New Deal had done.

    The citizenry aren't blameless but it's important to understand why we're in this spot.
