Teacher shot by 6-year-old student says school ignored warning signs: $40M suit

The Virginia teacher shot by a 6-year-old student filed a $40 million lawsuit on Monday, accusing school officials of repeatedly ignoring warnings that the disturbed youngster had a gun.

Abigail Zwerner, 25, filed the suit nearly three months after she was shot while teaching at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News by a first-grader with “a history of random violence,” according to the lawsuit.

I am a little surprised that we don’t see this type of suit in the news more often given the horrid state of many US public school systems.

Billboard Chris assaulted; police take side of trans attacker

Billboard Chris is on a quiet mission.

A father of two girls in Canada, he is worried about the effects that gender ideology is having on both his children and his society. In response he has gone on a simple, quiet, and to the trans community very threatening mission: he visits cities in North America and walks around wearing a sandwich board that simply reads: “children cannot consent to puberty blockers.”

Bad policing.
