This crap is directly attributable to Donald Trump, who has normalized bullying behavior.
Watch the interview from last night. It's riveting.
A Brevard County School Board member who supports masks in Florida schools said Tuesday that she and her family have been the victims of multiple attacks, including a false call to child protective services alleging that she was abusing her daughter.
Jennifer Jenkins said she has been reluctant to speak about the weeks of threats and harassment.
But on Tuesday, as the board considered a state-sponsored resolution to make meetings safer, Jennifer Jenkins said she felt her hand was forced.
"I've tried not to talk about this stuff publicly," she said in a clip of her remarks posted online.
"I don't reject people coming here and speaking their voice," Jenkins said. "... I reject them following my car around. I reject them saying that they're coming for me, that I need to beg for mercy."
"I reject that when they are using their First Amendment rights on public property, they're also going behind my home and brandishing their weapons to my neighbors."
The group stayed until dark, at which point Jenkins went outside, as she wanted them to leave before putting her 5-year-old daughter to bed, the report said. One woman came within a foot of Jenkins and coughed multiple times in her face, while a male protestor repeated: "Give her the Covid.”
