So it's perfectly reasonable to investigate and punish to the fullest extent of the law those that do.They absolutely cannot be acceptable. It is anathema to our democracy.

The following is from an email I got the other day:
.

I am a mother of four, a criminal defense attorney and a lifelong liberal who is deeply concerned about the direction of New York City’s public schools. I’ve been outspoken about my views, along with an untold number of frustrated parents. For that, the FBI is considering using the PATRIOT Act against me.
Let me explain: late last month, the National School Boards Association, an umbrella organization representing thousands of local elected school board officials, sent a letter addressed to President Biden. It warned that “America’s public schools and its education leaders are under an immediate threat.” But not just any threat: “the classification of these heinous actions could be the equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes.” The letter implored the White House to enlist the support of Homeland Security, the FBI and the Department of Justice to investigate the threat — adding that the alleged crimes fall under the purview of the “PATRIOT Act in regards to domestic terrorism.”
I read the letter with grave concern, as would any American who cares about our public schools and the safety of teachers and students. What was the nature of this threat? And would my own children be at risk?
As it turns out, the threat is me. The threat is parents showing up to dress down school boards over their dereliction of duty. That is what the NSBA considers a crime.
I urge you to read the letter in full. You will see that it contains 24 footnotes. The worst of the so-called crimes include prank calls; a single individual in Ohio yelling a “Nazi salute in protest of masking requirements”; another individual in Washington State whose disorderly conduct prompted the board to call a recess; “spreading misinformation” online, and disorderly conduct arrests. In New York, where I live, disorderly conduct is not even a criminal offense.
And yet within days of the NSBA letter, the top law enforcement official in the country, Attorney General Merrick Garland, publicly responded to the letter with a memorandum to the director of the FBI. Garland agreed with the NSBA that “there has been a disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence” against board members — without providing any evidence. He further announced specialized training for board members to “aid in the investigation and prosecution of these crimes” and, more worryingly, the creation of a task force composed of FBI and Justice Department representatives to “determine how federal enforcement tools can be used to prosecute these crimes.” The FBI’s clear message to parents is that the NSBA is on the right track.

Why Are Moms Like Me Being Called Domestic Terrorists?
Showing up to dress down school boards over their dereliction of duty isn't a crime. It's good parenting and good citizenship.bariweiss.substack.com
THIS is domestic terrorism? It's okay to riot, burn, and loot private property, vandalize public property and even declare certain places as autonomous zones, that's not domestic terrorism is but parents raising hell at a local school board meeting is? Are you fucking kidding me? Our FBI is coming after US? WE are the problem? Something is seriously fucked up here.
If you are not guilty of harassment, intimidation, or threats, how does that effect you?
Well, at least the moms that are guilty of assault and making threats of violence. You really have a problem with that?Because the Rats.....the Left are fucking cowards.
that's why moms are called domestic terrorists.
Nope. Those things have always been against the law, even at school board meetings. Are you really that dumb?Parents are SUPPOSED the harass, intimidate, and threaten school boards.
School board are corrupt bureaucrats who forget they are supposed to be subordinate to the parents.
But the use of Homeland Security, the FBI, etc. on local parents, is totally and completely illegal.
Well, at least the moms that are guilty of assault and making threats of violence. You really have a problem with that?
No idea. It's not my job to keep a list of criminals. You got a list of those that didn't assault or make threats of violence?Who are they, turd? Name one.
The fuck they are...Parents are SUPPOSED the harass, intimidate, and threaten school boards.
So how do you know that anything occured other than the normal?No idea. It's not my job to keep a list of criminals. You got a list of those that didn't assault or make threats of violence?
Don't be silly. There are plenty of videos of crazies making threats at school board meetings.So how do you know that anything occured other than the normal?
Why would any news source report on those that didn't assault or make threats of violence?
You're a fucking idiot.
Post one.Don't be silly. There are plenty of videos of crazies making threats at school board meetings.
Because the peasantry has no right to question the body politic.The following is from an email I got the other day:

The FBI by law only has jurisdiction over Federal crimes. Garland is exceeding his authority. If they bug you about school issues, take them to court or file a complaint with the local US Attorney.The following is from an email I got the other day:
