Both I believe. Making a joke to deflect discomfort.

Should be shared on the national level; this is a dangerous trend for children. WHO is in charge of our children's education? Are they being academically educated OR politically indoctrinated? Silencing parents is a huge 'red flag' that political influence is priority #1. Our children's academic education is NOT a priority. There is a fundamental right to free speech and that is being denied by an elected board. Dictators (Communist nations) silence the people; is that where we are headed?

Thank you for your review of the OSD board meeting April 27th and featuring Paul Thompson's speech that was cut short by the board. I have spoken at board meetings as well that have been cut short and then summarized. After the fact I began front loading my speeches, limiting to 30 seconds to a minute before President Huffman had the opportunity to silence me. I carefully prepared my public comment on the OSD budget, practising within 3 minutes. I was shocked and grateful to have had the opportunity to speak.
