1. I thought, this can't be what she's saying....

but yes indeed, she wants her kids to be able to call other kids an R word that is designed to denigrate them.

What a great mom....oh, wait...what a terrible mother who teaches and encourages her kids to be bullies.

2. This is what happens

When bullies are net met with immediate. swift, & severe retribution.

3. This woman is an ignorant nasty piece of work.

I feel sorry for her children.
They are going to have a rough life.

4. You can't have too many idiots!

[Solly Mack]

5. And they are defiant and proud about it.

6. The First Ammendment says I have free speech rights.

If I want to say someone is a retard,... God Damn it, that is my Constitutional Right.

7. You can substitute many words for the one she used.

All are offensive and bigoted. Some of them are racist, sexist, homophobic, or ableist. All uses of all of them should be scorned and called out. While that woman has the freedom of speech, she does not have the freedom from sharp criticism she seems to think she has.

8. Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA

Are the ones showing up to school board meetings

9. They are mad because they don't fit in with regular society or get decent jobs and the seal their by acting like this

10. That woman needs to look in the mirror

Fox News and social media have convinced some people that they should be immune from criticism when being loud mouthed idiots.

That tirade (which was classic projection) is very much about wanting the freedom to bully others, especially those who can’t defend themselves.

People like that are an occupational hazard of public meetings. The consequences for the crank include being cut off and being shown the door. That’s how free speech works for adults.
