I think I would consider this a better indicator of your actual motive.

Wait, what? No one is forcing your children to go to Public school, there is always private and homeschooling. But your statement itself shows me that you are grossly uneducated on the realities of child molestation/abuse if you are this concerned about 'strangers'.

Couldn't a teacher fall under other known person or acquaintance? Since "teacher" isn't specifically mentioned it could still be a legitimate concern.

Absolutely they could, I would probably consider a childs direct teacher to be that, and other teachers to be more along the lines of strangers. But that doesn't really change the point I'm making.

Also, we going to address the part where he says you have to send your children to school when you absolutely don't?

Sure.

Give me back the $3k+ I pay a year in property taxes on my house, land, vehicles, and boats and let me either put it towards tuition at one of the several highly regarded private schools in our area, or so that I can quit working the little I already do now to supplement my retirement income and teach my youngest son the last three years he has in school.

Oh BTW, I am primarily working to overcome the gap caused between my income prior and retirement income because of taxes. I'd much rather be fishing and hunting more often than trudging all over the state essentially making nothing because it's mostly being extorted from me by my government. A government, BTW, that can;t seem to keep perverts out of the schools.

But it seems as though I did misremember your claimed stance, it seems to be in support of a more voucher system? I don't know, it's not entirely clear.

So you are using an answer to another question to override the answer to the direct question?

So noted.


And please show me where at any point I stated I wanted to abolish the public school system. That or either publicly admit that you pulled that straight out your ass.

They are both your words and describe your motivations regarding the same subject, I don't see what's wrong with using both to make my opinion?

And I admitted that I made a mistake in remembering your stance, like I said, it sounds kind of like you support a voucher system maybe? I don't know.

So you admit that the statement you made to Owl earlier wasn't based upon the truth.

In the future I would advise you to avoid lying about me in a public forum. If you are so interested you can send GTS a pm about the ramifications that some other posters on another part of this board faced when they lied about another poster on this public forum.

I'll be sure to report myself to the proper authorities sir, I humbly beg your forgiveness, a thousand times over. I wouldn't dare intentionally besmirch your name.
