Is that how you've gone through life so far? Relying on your supposed "intimidation" to win arguments?
Hell, many of us who are not in gun forge have substantial experience with firearms from the military.
I seem to recall he refused to buy heath insurance because... Obama. Also Arkansas is one of those shitty red states who refused to cover poor people even though the feds offered to pay 100% of it.
In fairness (and I may be misremembering this), I believe his resistance to buying insurance predates the Obama administration by many years. Maybe I should take back what I said about him being a loving father.
Here's the problem with that: It assumes that everyone has the same level of agreement as to what constitutes "reasonable." It is not at all a universal standard. I once had a supervisor get irate with me because when she asked me if doing something would fix a problem we were having. When I told her "No." she proceeded to chew me out for being "disrespectful" to her. After she stormed off, I turned to the people around me and asked them if I had been disrespectful to her. They all agreed that I hadn't been. She was later fired for being incompetent at her job. If we'd been in your scenario, she likely would have shot me. Oh, I don't know, maybe this?
Where did you get the idea I lacked experience with guns.[/quote]Oh, I don't know, maybe this? [/quote] A shotgun is all I own. I've fired scores of different firearms many different times. I helped one of my sisters train with her guns when she was being threatened at work about 15 years ago.
You absoute lying sack of shite. Your school wanted to sack you and you were only saved because they failed to following the correct disciplinary procedure.
You assume the school was making a correct decision. Pretty big assumption from an institution that can't follow basic procedures........
So? If you don't routinely practice a skill, like shooting, it begins to degrade. One of the reasons why you'll hear stories about police firing hundreds of rounds at someone, but the person only getting shot a handful of times is that police don't get as much time at a shooting range as they should. You might be better than an absolute beginner, but if you haven't fired a gun in 6 months, you'll be significantly worse at hitting the target than someone who's practiced once a week for 6 months. That's even if you've been firing the same gun for years, prior to setting it aside for those six months.
It followed procedure, it simply didn't complete one step properly....and you were consistently found to have failed to come up to standard by an entire board of people. Now, when we see many "professional educators" of, collectively, many decades of experience declaring you not good enough, do you really expect us to believe that the assessment of your competence had no merit whatsoever?
We've read the notes of the minutes, there were a few areas that you failed to meet minimum standards. Those areas were noted by several people on staff. Around the same time you were being observed in the classroom, presumably in relation to that meeting. The area that they did not follow through was on some type of coaching or remedial training. They did not do that, and enough people agreed that did not occur. That was the reason you were not dismissed. The short of it, you were incompetent and kept your job because they missed a step.
The "professional educators" declaring that had less classroom experience than I did. The standards they chose to apply were ridiculous. These were the same people who said kids could learn more about the 9-11 attacks by building paper models of the twin towers than viewing news footage of the attack as it happened.
You are in error Ed. The only "mistake" that was made by the other side was the principal (a young guy who I to this day like a great deal) maintained that a state observer insisted that they had to move an ALE class to the regular class because they were not learning anything in my ALE class. He insisted he had been given a written statement to that effect and I asked him to produce it or a copy. He said he did not have it with him. And the state observer was his aunt so there is that as well.
So why was that NOT in the minutes of the meeting? The minutes contained several pieces of documentation that demonstrated you were substandard, including your scores as to how proficient you were. So they're ridiculous because??? You don't agree with them?
If you can't see why they are obviously ridiculous then no amount of argument by me will convince you otherwise. School board meetings are not considered legal proceedings Ed. They frequently do not take minutes or leave out huge sections.
In other words, you don't have anything to back you view up. Surprising. But they can shitcan you, or make the decision to do so.
Hmm.... is there anything positive about you in this thread @Dayton3? Your own attempts don't count since they've all been disproven.
Hmm, seems our exiting policy was far too lenient. Well, you won't be editing anything from two years ago now, nor even from half an hour back. And I have half a mind to restore the original posts, you fuck.
Do it! Do it!!! That way his smugness at the ability to use the edit button is vanquished. And you may get the bonus of him referring you to "one of the ilk".
Nah, the edits are spammish and don't help his cause, especially as they expose that he is underhanded and devious. A man who pretends he said one thing when really he said something else, is not a man anybody should trust.
Do it. I don't remember the original content of those posts, but it can't be as pathetic as the fantasies that he put in its place.
Others have covered it, but I'll rephrase: Lack of experience compared to many of the people you'd be sitting with around your Wordforge "debate circle of danger". You ever point a gun at anyone with intent to use it, or had one pointed at you by someone intent on using it?
