You have not been on a college campus lately. Had you been, you would have found fear and hatred for our military and our flag. The academic community is the vortex of this sadness. You didn’t have a chance. You were surrounded and out numbered. Their perceptions are based on ignorance and innuendo for the military and sadly for republicans, seen in the same prism.

Example. I was a very well thought of substitute teacher in a difficult school. When it came up that I was a republican, and nothing more, the temperature in the teachers room went to below freezing and never came back. That was all it took. That the incentive to mistrust and dislike was so small was the real story.
So imagine the effect you had when seen through the lens of their shrewd vision of our democracy.
You never had a chance. It was over before you sat down.
I surely don’t know the law where you are, My husband is a lawyer in RI and I work for him, This means, I know how to send a fax. But what are you suing for ? What outcome are you seeking? Was a law broken.What duty did the school board have to you, which was promised but not met.?
Don’t get me wrong.f Fight any battle no matter how small, but understand in this case, you re fighting city hall and win or lose, you will never be close to the root of the problem.
the root I think goes back probably to the’40′s. Telling the ugly truths about our governments, counties clumsy or even evil mishandling of a variety National and international situation became all the rage on college campuses. Indeed the school who could boast the most gratuitous shock effect became the “it girl” of academia.
That’s all well and good. But, America can stand up to it’s history and still out shine ANY country in the history of the world. We seek what is right and it will be out downfall, oddly enough.
When people look at the past through the morality of the present, they do history a mis-justice and they have understood nothing of the past.
American academia has become a universe of light weights who understand nothing while claiming to understand best. You are a victim of their ignorance.
I’m gong to send you some $$. Not much, I’m sorry to say, we are paying my daughters college loans.
God Bless you and your beautiful family,
