We Can Officially Stop Calling It ”Alleged” Now

Oh, and we’re back in Loudoun.

Loudoun County Student Won’t Contest Sexual Battery Charge (dailysignal.com)

Our transgender rapist is not disputing the facts of the case.

A juvenile court judge found the same male student guilty of sexually assaulting a different female student in an October case, Fox 5 DC reported. The “no contest” plea in this second case “means the boy is not admitting guilt, but he is not disputing the facts,” according to Fox.

So, we now know that he raped the girl in the girls bathroom. Good. Now we need to figure out what to do about it.

By the way, I am not insensitive to the plight of the people with gender dysphoria, or to the fully transgendered. I think we need to accept people for who they are and to make accommodations however we can.

I object to a person using that to be able to commit crimes. People like the rapist in this case are not helping the transgendered cause and shouldn’t be used as a martyr. I have my doubts as to his transgenderism. I think he just wore a skirt so he could get into the girls bathroom.

We should all be able to agree that this is a bad thing, regardless of our gender identities or our feelings on transgenderism.

Once Again We Return to Loudoun County

Man, this is one screwed up school district.

Virginia Judge Sides With Teacher Suspended After Opposing Loudoun Transgender Policy, Can’t Be Punished for Beliefs | The Daily Wire

He was suspended for voicing his opinion on a proposed policy at a school board meeting.

Umm..isn’t that the point of school board meetings? To provide input on proposals so that they can be improved or discarded?

A Virginia judge granted a permanent injunction protecting the speech rights of a Loudoun County teacher who was placed on leave last May following remarks at a school board meeting about a proposed transgender policy.

The ruling blocks the Loudoun County School Board from punishing Tanner Cross, a physical education teacher at Leesburg Elementary School, for his views about Policy 8040, which is the district’s transgender policy. 

“Teachers shouldn’t be forced to promote ideologies that are harmful to their students and that they believe are false, and they certainly shouldn’t be silenced from commenting at public meetings,” said Tyson Langhofer, a lawyer with Alliance Defending Freedom who has been representing Cross.

“While we are very pleased that Tanner will be able to keep serving his students in light of this settlement, the concerns expressed in our ongoing lawsuit challenging the district’s policy remain,” he added.

Cross spoke up at a school board meeting in May, saying that he did not support Policy 8040, which was being considered at the time. Soon after the meeting, he was placed on administrative leave.

How did they think they could get away with this? This is a clear trampling of his First Amendment rights. It was at a school board meeting, not in class. He wasn’t out picketing in front of the school building. He didn’t even (as far as I can tell) say he would not adhere to the proposal if it passed. He said he shouldn’t have to, but didn’t say he wouldn’t.

This is tyranny. And we’re all just happy to go along.

And It’s Time to Go Back to Loudoun County

I haven’t posted about them in at least a day.

Loudoun County Supervisor Labels Protesting Parents ‘Alt-Right.’ Black, Jewish Parents Fire Back. | The Daily Wire

They really have forgotten the first rule of holes.

When you’re in one, stop digging.

A leftist member of the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors labeled parents who have banded together to protest the school districts’ attitude toward sexual assault and alleged support of the teaching of Critical Race Theory in schools “alt-right,” triggering harsh criticism from Jewish and black parents who are part of the protest movement.

Let’s just alienate everyone, shall we?

Elicia Brand, a Jewish Loudoun County mother who has volunteered with the group Fight for Schools, told Fox News, “As a Jewish American, I am completely offended.  I take that as a personal affront. … I support Ian Prior and everything that he is doing for the schools and the parents in every way.” Prior is the Executive Director of Fight for Schools.

Brand, who founded her own group Army of Parents to support Fight for Schools, added, “I know many people in the Fight for Schools organization and not one of them is alt-right, not one of them is far-right, not one of them is racist.” She slammed Briskman, asserting, “She is putting political ideology and the political agenda before the needs of the citizens of Loudoun County and she owes every one of us an apology.” She concluded, “To call us alt-right is a punch in the gut, a stab in the heart for all parents who fight for their children.”

And we call that a smackdown. Really the whole board and most of the administrators in this district need to resign. I’m tired of writing about them.

Loudoun County Parents Keep On Fighting

Loudoun County Parent Group Collects Signatures To Oust School Board Members | The Daily Wire

Parents in Loudoun County, Virginia, have collected the necessary signatures to begin the process of pushing several school board members out of their positions, as well as create a petition to expel chairwoman Brenda Sheridan from the school board.

The group is called “Fight For Schools,” and its executive director, Ian Prior, said the “chairwoman, Brenda Sheridan has overseen and personally contributed to a complete breakdown in trust between the community and the Loudoun County School Board. From violating open meetings law to ignoring the school board’s code of conduct to neglecting to keep our children safe, all for her activist causes, Sheridan has been nothing short of a disaster as the so-called leader of Loudoun County Public Schools.”

“Let this serve as a message to the rest of the board and Superintendent [Scott] Ziegler: if you thought that this was all about an election, then you have once more failed to properly judge the resolve of your constituents,” Prior added. “We’re still here and we’re not going anywhere.”

it’s a tough battle. You need just a few thousand signatures to start the process. That’s easy. Getting it done takes a long and sustained effort and a lot more backing than just a couple thousand people willing to sign a piece of paper.

I Know This Doesn’t Have Anything to Do With Education, but OMG

Can Loudoun county get any more screwed up?

112 Loudoun County Children Given Adult Doses of COVID Vaccine. Pharmacy Is Sorry for the 'Inconvenience' – PJ Media

Loudoun County, Va., is in the news again, but this time it’s not about raucous school board meetings or parents being branded terrorists. According to Washington News4, 112 young children were given the wrong dosage of the COVID-19 vaccine—one meant for adults—at a Ted Pharmacy in Aldie.

Dasha Hermosilla told News4 that her 7-year-old daughter was given a dose of the vaccine meant for those 12 and older.

The Loudon County Health Department’s “clinical guidance” document notes that the 0.3 ml dosage that the children were given “is authorized for individuals 12 years and older only” and the approved dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for children 5-11 is 0.2 ml.

Before you go thinking that it’s just an increase from 0.2 to 0.3, no big deal, remember that’s a 50% increase. If I were a parent here, I’d be screaming for someone’s head. Delivered to me on a silver platter.

And This Is Why Elections Matter

Can you see this happening in a Terry McAuliffe administration? Me neither.

Virginia Attorney General-Elect to Investigate Sexual Assaults in Loudoun (dailysignal.com)

Miyares also said he plans to push for legislation, which was discussed on the campaign trail, that allows his office to take over when chief law enforcement officers think the state’s prosecutors are not sufficiently doing their job.

Miyares added his support for “a bill that would essentially say if the chief law enforcement officer in a jurisdiction, either the chief of police or the sheriff, makes a request, because the commonwealth’s attorney is not doing their job, then I’m going to do their job for them.”

More, he clarified that he is thinking “specifically” about “some of the so-called social justice commonwealth attorneys” who have been elected “particularly in Northern Virginia.”

Miyares said Virginia has seen some “pretty horrific cases” that have been made public where state prosecutors have failed to do their job. He said that he wants to bring victims back to the forefront of the process based on his own experience as a prosecutor.

Nice. I think it also means that I’ll have more to blog about in Loudoun county.

Umm.

Ok. Well, that speaks for itself.

Pence Is Right

Seriously, there are topics unrelated to Virginia. I promise.

Pence Demands School Officials Resign for 'Cover-Up' of Sexual Assaults (dailysignal.com)

The whole board needs to resign, as well as some administrators at the schools.

But, as events in Loudoun County schools continued to go viral, the former vice president began his remarks by noting: “The eyes of the nation are on Loudoun County, Virginia.”

“It’s amazing to think in recent weeks, Loudoun County has becoming the epicenter of a powerful movement that is spreading all across this country—a movement of concerned parents and patriotic citizens demanding an end to curriculums that divide our nation and accountability for educational bureaucrats who put political correctness ahead of the interest of our kids,” Pence said.

Good start. Now bring it home.

“School board members and anyone responsible for this tragedy and cover-up should resign immediately,” Pence said, referring to sexual assaults that the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office said were committed by the same teenage boy at two different high schools.

Yep. They should. If they had any class or decency, they would have already. Of course, if they had any class or decency, this never would have happened in the first place.

Loudoun County School Board Has Forgotten the First Rule of Holes

When you’re in one, stop digging.

Loudoun County School Board Chair Trashes Parents (dailysignal.com)

“I have to go back to the pandemic. Because it stirred from parents who were very legitimately concerned about schools being closed, and then—so, you had angry parents who I can absolutely empathize with and we wanted to help and we took their kids out of school because we had to. And then—so, you had a group of angry parents and then someone lit the fire with critical race theory, and I truly believe it is to impact elections,” Sheridan told Todd. “There is a fire lit every week in Loudoun County on a new topic just to keep the anger flowing,” Sheridan added.

Maybe the fires will stop, if you stop throwing around flammable material.

Maybe the First Student Walk Out I’ve Ever Been Proud to See

Loudoun County Students Stage Walk-Outs to Protest Sexual Assault in Schools | National Review

Our rapist has been transferred to a new school. It didn’t go over well.

On Tuesday, students walked out of Broad Run High School, where the attacker was relocated and is still technically enrolled. The teenage defendant will receive sentencing after the second set of charges dealing with the Broad Run accusations are adjudicated, the judge said Tuesday.

Outside the school, a group of students chanted “Loudoun County protects rapists,” Drew Wilder of NBC Washington reported. “Why was a rapist allowed in our school?” another student shouted. “This isn’t a political issue, this is a human issue. Listen to the students,” a third student exclaimed.

Good job kids. More protests have occurred at other schools also. Students shouldn’t have to fear getting raped in the bathroom.

 

Oh, so She Was Asking for It?

I thought that rapist defense went out with bell bottom jeans and Jimmy Carter.

Washington Post Reporter Frames Loudoun County Sexual Assault In Way Paper Would Not Frame Other Accusations | The Daily Wire

A teen testified she met a classmate for consensual sex in the girls’ bathroom of a Loudoun County high school before, but in a May encounter she was sexually assaulted. New details in the case at the center of a firestorm https://t.co/wON6Y7EpRD

— justin jouvenal (@jjouvenal) October 26, 2021

Ok, so the girl in question is a slut. I’m sure reading that in the paper is going to continue to make the dad happy.

But she didn’t go in there for consensual sex this time. Unless the paper is trying to bring that into question.

What happened to #BelieveAllWomen

I didn’t realize it was #BelieveAllWomenNotClaimingToBeAttackedBySomeoneInAProtectedGroup

That doesn’t roll off the tongue quite as well.

This is a disgusting attack.

More from Daily Wire:

The wording of the tweet didn’t make it clear that the female victim had sex with the same student in the bathroom prior to her accusation of sexual assault. Jouvenal’s article on the case makes this clear:

During the hearing, the 15-year-old victim in the first case testified she had consensual sexual encounters with the defendant on two occasions in a girls’ bathroom at Stone Bridge High School in Ashburn. On May 28, she said, the two arranged to meet again and the youth threw her to the floor and forced her to perform sex acts.

What made the final encounter different, according to the female victim’s testimony, is that the male student forced her to perform a sex act she had repeatedly refused to participate in. As the Post reported, the victim and the perpetrator had “sexually charged” conversations on a social media app prior to the assault, during which the young woman repeatedly refused to participate in a particular sex act desired by her attacker. One day before the assault, the victim was hospitalized “because of a health condition that made her weak, and the defendant ‘utilized her physical helplessness’ to take advantage of her,” the Post reported.

“He flipped me over,” the girl testified, per the Post. “I was on the ground and couldn’t move and he sexually assaulted me.”

Jouvenal’s tweet about the article generated a backlash online, with conservative comedian Tim Young wrote: “Oh look… the Washington Post victim blames teens who were raped now.” Gov. Ron DeSantis’ press secretary, Christina Pushaw, wrote: “So what you’re saying is ‘she asked for it’?”

Yes, I see that Christina Pushaw and I had the same reaction.

Once again, this is disgusting, but not surprising. Very little from the left surprises me anymore. They’re all just horrible people.

 

This Is the Standard Left Playbook

If you disagree with the Left, you’re racist, or stupid, or crazy, or just making stuff up.

You couldn’t possibly disagree with them because they’re wrong, and because you want to protect your family.

‘What Is Phony Exactly?’: Dan Crenshaw Hammers Obama For Dismissing Parents’ ‘Fake Outrage’ At Public Schools | The Daily Wire

What did former President Barack Obama (D-USA) say that got him into trouble?

“He’s accusing schools of brainwashing our kids,” Obama remarked.

“Here we are trying to recover from a global pandemic that has killed more than 700,000 Americans, that has shut down thousands of small businesses and put millions out of work. We don’t have time to be wasting on these phony, trumped-up culture wars, this fake outrage, the right-wing media’s pedals to juice their ratings,” Obama later said. “And the fact that he’s willing to go along with it? Instead of talking about serious problems that affect serious people? That’s a shame. That’s not what this election is about. That’s not what you need, Virginia.”

Oh yeah. That.

Critics slammed former President Barack Obama after he suggested that recent anger against school administrators in Virginia was due to “trumped-up culture wars.”

“What is phony exactly? The school rape coverup or Terry McAuliffe saying parents shouldn’t be involved in their child’s education? Shameless gaslighting to prop up a candidate the left knows is in serious trouble,” Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) said.

“Virginia public schools have pushed critical race theory in the classroom, suppressed concerned parents at school board meetings, and covered up for a gender-fluid sexual predator, who allegedly raped two innocent girls,” the Manhattan Institute’s Christopher Rufo replied.

Yeah, that’s about right. Look, this isn’t fake. These are real issues. And the Democrats are on the wrong side of them. Mocking people for believing otherwise isn’t going to make the issue go away, and it’s not likely to win you any votes either.

Obama would have been better off keeping his big mouth shut.

I Can’t Imagine Why He Wouldn’t Want to Talk About It

I mean, this is the Democrat dream, right? Boys in girls bathrooms everywhere.

Well, Maybe You Should Learn About Such Things Before You Start Calling Parents ”Domestic Terrorists”

Merrick Garland Grilled On Loudoun Case, Says He ‘Doesn’t Know’ About Alleged Sex Assault | The Daily Wire

Garland was, ostensibly, in front of the House committee to discuss the January 6th Capitol Riot, but Republicans took the opportunity to interrogate the attorney general over the NSBA letter that suggested parent complaints at school board meetings could rise to the level of “domestic terrorism” or a “hate crime,” a subsequent DOJ letter directing the FBI to investigate such confrontations, and, specifically, on the sex assault case in Loudoun County.

Rep. Steve Chabot (R-OH) kicked off the interrogation, demanding that Garland address the DOJ memo.

Chabot said he “found it deeply disturbing that the National School Boards Association convinced the Biden administration to sic you and your Justice Department, the FBI … on involved parents as if they were domestic terrorists.”

“I can tell you, not in a million years did we dream that one day we would see the Justice Department treat American parents as domestic terrorists,” Chabot said.  “No one has the right to be violent or threaten violence … but we don’t need the vast power of the federal government throwing its weight around.”

How Garland and the Democrats thought this would fly is beyond me. They are clinically insane.

“He Had No History”

Loudoun County Prosecutor Defends Sending Alleged Teen Rapist To Different School: ‘He Had No History’ | The Daily Wire

The Daily Wire reported, earlier in October, that Scott Smith’s daughter was allegedly raped in a high school bathroom by a male student who reportedly identifies as “gender-fluid.” Smith’s face was splashed across news networks and his arrest was used as an example of challenging behavior by parents in a letter from the National School Board Association (NSBA) to the Department of Justice, demanding the DOJ investigate confrontations before they become “domestic terrorism or hate crimes.”

The 15-year-old student, who was, according to Smith, charged with several counts of sexual assault, including a charge of forcible rape and a charge of forcible sodomy — ostensibly violent crimes. The student, however, was transferred to another school within the same district and, reportedly, went on to commit a second sexual assault.

Well, now he has a history.

Wait, he’s “gender fluid”. That’s how “he” got in to the girls’ restroom in the first place. Are we using the correct pronoun? Isn’t that the most important thing in this case?

Do I need to add the sarcasm tag?

Apparently Not ”#HerToo”

Women's Groups Silent on Loudoun School Rape Allegations (dailysignal.com)

Why is that?

Advocacy groups that once emphatically urged the public to “believe all women” are now silent over a viral report that a skirt-wearing male student allegedly raped one of his peers in her school bathroom.

“The left’s silence on the accusations of sexual assault inside Loudoun County schools is absolutely deafening,” Lauren Adams, legal director of the feminist group Women’s Liberation Front, said in a statement to The Daily Signal. “The #MeToo movement advocated for society to believe survivors, but, apparently, that goes out the window when the perpetrator may identify as transgender.”

How you know the whole “#MeToo” movement was a load of crap.

Need to get rid of the rest. And put them in prison.

For the rest of their lives.

Beth Barts, a far-left member of the Loudoun County School Board, has resigned from her position.

First elected in 2019, Barts has been criticized by parent groups over Critical Race Theory and transgender policies in the school system. Her resignation, which will take effect on November 2, 2021, staves off an ongoing recall attempt.

“This was not an easy decision or a decision made in haste. After much thought and careful consideration, it is the right decision for me and my family,” said Barts in a statement Friday.

There is not a device capable of measuring how little sympathy I have for her.

Sue ‘Em Into Bankruptcy

Parents of Girl Allegedly Assaulted Plan to Sue Loudoun District (dailysignal.com)

The family of a girl who was allegedly assaulted in the bathroom of a Virginia high school plans to pursue legal action against Loudoun County Public Schools over the incident and the aftermath.

“The Smith family has retained the Stanley Law Group of Virginia,” according to a statement from the firm released Thursday. The firm will not only sue the school system in relation to the alleged assault, but it will also take action related to Scott Smith’s arrest during a June 22 meeting of the Loudoun County Public Schools board.

“The facts are that a male student claiming to be ‘gender fluid’ was permitted to enter the girls’ bathroom on May 28 and sexually assault our daughter. Making matters worse, the school system repeatedly failed to protect her thereafter. Then, they concealed the sexual assault from the public while considering formalizing a bathroom access policy that would have—and now has—increased the likelihood of sexual assaults like these,” Smith and his wife, Jess, said in the statement.

There aren’t enough zeros possible for that check.

The Daily Wire reported that in the aftermath of the incident, Stone Bridge High School told Smith that it would handle the situation “in-house,” prompting Smith to protest. Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to the scene, and they eventually took Smith’s daughter to a hospital. Loudoun County Public Schools transferred the alleged assailant to another high school

And remember. They knew. It wasn’t the rapist’s first offense.

n Oct. 7, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office stated that a student had been arrested for carrying out an assault in a local school bathroom on Oct. 6. On Oct. 13, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office stated that the alleged perpetrator of the Oct. 6 incident was also accused of the alleged assault of Smith’s daughter on May 28 at Stone Bridge High School.

“What happened to Mr. and Mrs. Smith and their daughter in Loudoun County is absolutely abhorrent and unacceptable. It is a nightmare no family should have to endure, yet it has happened twice in Loudoun Schools in the same year by the same perpetrator,” said Bill Stanley of the Stanley Law Group.

“To date, no one with Loudoun County Public Schools or the school board has been held accountable for the wrong done to the Smith family. Our firm intends to rectify that,” Stanley added.

Good.

This Just Gets Worser and Worser

EXCLUSIVE: Loudoun Schools Did Not Record Multiple Alleged Sexual Assaults Over A Period Of Years Despite State Law, Records Show | The Daily Wire

Well, now we know why they covered up the transgender rapist.

Habit.

Loudoun County Public Schools did not record multiple known incidents of alleged sexual assault in schools dating back several years, despite a law that requires statistics about school safety incidents to be reported to the public and which includes provisions holding school superintendents personally liable for violations, a Daily Wire review of public records found.

After The Daily Wire raised the discrepancy with the Virginia Department of Education, VDOE spokesman Charles Pyle said that “VDOE is reviewing the discipline, crime and violence data submissions of Loudoun County Public Schools and is in communication with LCPS to determine whether the division’s reporting is accurate and whether the division is in compliance with state and federal law.”

If your kids are in school in this district, do them and yourself a favor. Get them out. Now.

But remember, former Governor Terry McAuliffe (D-VA) doesn’t think this is a problem.
