Comment on Charter Schools Program

The following was submitted by me to the United States Department of Education courtesy of Public Charter Schools.

I oppose the Department of Education’s proposed new rules for the Charter Schools Program (CSP).

Charter schools provide competition, as it were, to non-charter public schools that are one size fits all, with all being the lowest common denominator.

In a one size fits all world, one gets poor and unfortunately standardized results like school librarians who make graphic child pornography available to school children.  They scream “#FReadom,” shout down any opposition with full media support, and their American Library Association grants such books like “Gender Queer” multiple awards so school librarians in non-charter public schools can claim the graphic child pornography is award winning so parents would harm their own children if they did not let their children explore graphic child pornography from a “safe space.”  It is literal sexual grooming of school children by people trained by American Library Association to ignore child pornography because, they and we are told, only lawyers can determine what that is.  

Judith Krug, an ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) board member who joined American Library Association and single-handedly changed it from within so children would be exposed to harm including child pornography, said this twenty years ago that remains in effect today: “‘A librarian is not a legal process,’ Krug said. ‘There is not librarian in the country—unless she or he is a lawyer—who is in the position to determine what he or she is looking at is indeed child pornography.’”  Source: “Librarians vs. Police In a Suit Sparked by Porn,” by Jeffrey M. Barker, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, 12 August 2002, accessed at https://www.seattlepi.com/news/article/Libraries-vs-police-in-a-suit-sparked-by-porn-1093410.php.

School librarians are the groomers, trained to groom.  If a man in a van gave children the same material, including the graphic showing the boy giving oral sex to a man or directions to kink.com, he would be treated as a groomer and handled accordingly by the police and the legal system, or perhaps directly by the community.

But school librarians are assumed to be harmless and trade off that public perception and good will, even brag about it as they did during this past National Library Week as a way to “#UniteAgainstBookBans” due to parental and legislative opposition to graphic child pornography in public schools.  And people believe they are harmless.  So nothing ever happens and the graphic child pornography spreads to more schools and more children via more school librarians.  And if parents do speak out, they are frequently silenced by school boards violating open meeting laws, let alone bullies and bribes organized by American Library Association, ACLU and the like.  Parents need a way out.

One way out is charter schools.  Charter schools give parents an option for schooling so they need not send their children to be sexually groomed.

I realize this sounds like I’m exaggerating.  I am not.  

The problem is about to get worse as American Library Association has just elected Emily Drabinski as its president, an avowed Marxist who stated explicitly, “I just cannot believe that a Marxist lesbian who believes that collective power is possible to build and can be wielded for a better world is the president-elect of @ALALibrary.  I am so excited for what we will do together.  Solidarity!  And my mom is SO PROUD I love you mom.”  Source: https://twitter.com/edrabinski/status/1514305183429365767

I oppose the Department of Education’s proposed new rules for the CSP because parents must have alternatives for the education of their children.  The CSP is the only source of dedicated federal funding to support the growth of charter schools to meet community need.  It is more important than ever to work together to ensure the CSP can meet its intended purpose of expanding the number of high-quality public schools available to students across the nation.

Thank you for your consideration.
