The ppl didn’t get “hostile” the board cut off the man without cause and tried to “take a 15 minute break” while he was in the middle of his point (which was based on statutes). Then he objected to their attempt to cut him off, and the board said “we’re going to adjourn”. That’s when the crowd got upset
This board acts like a bunch of spoiled children. When they dont hear what they want they shut the speakers down. When they dont get their way they have a tantrum and blame others. Is exhausting.
It didn't happen like you say. The crowd got "hostile" even before that man began speaking, they had several warnings. Watch the video above that you are commenting on. 2:52 the chair says "we can stop this meeting, I've already asked you folks" look who has the floor. It's a woman.

Then the crowd really got upset and loud.

They don't want to hear from the parents. They made the decision to do what "they" thought was right. They wouldn't move an inch for the majority. Then put the blame on an "unruly crowd" every time. The reason the crowd was upset is because of the pushback without change or just hearing them out. Time to vote the board out.
To an outsider, the meeting being cut off is not the issue (for whatever reason). I’d like to hear why the board was in violation of the laws as referenced by the Idaho state Senator. How it’s being portrayed to a national audience is immaterial. It’s the locals that matter.
The understandable hostility comes from the despicable infringements upon our children’s safety. They talk about “safe spaces” yet they are deliberately and arrogantly creating an highly unsafe space for girls. Push back for the sake of the children
You're funny. How is a trans kid dangerous? Give them their own restroom yes, but to say they are "unsafe" is bullsh^*t. It is actually unsafe for the trans kid coming out of the closet in middle school than it is for the straight kid to get through the day. There is no infringement on children's safety here. Having no gun control is an infringement of child's safety. (please show me where you commented against guns; I'm sure you're for guns). Also, I NEVER saw a naked boy in a locker room in high school or middle school. When did that ever happen? And I was an athlete.
So you’re under the impression that because a teenager wants to see the inside of a public girls restroom, or see them change clothes that they’d go to the lengths of coming out to his friends and family that he wants to become a girl, (which would cause him to loose all his friends and begin being bullied) then start seeing a therapist about being transgender, then be willing to start taking hormones to stop puberty from progressing and thereby causing his voice to raise in pitch. . . All this so he can change in the girls locker room and watch other girls change?? OR they might have NO INTEREST in seeing other girls change. Or they could have him change in a bathroom stall instead of in a school locker room. MAYBE, JUST MAYBE there’s a boy who since the age of 3 has felt he was born in the wrong body. So at the risk of him committing suicide, his parents agreed for him to become a her. Are you in a place to judge? If I remember my Bible correctly, you’re not.
Kimberley Kimball Wow, completely ignoring the issue! The point is a guy can declare himself to be “trans” and enter a girls bathroom with complete impunity! What could possibly go wrong!!

The title of this video indicated there was support, as well as criticism, for the school board, but the only support type interviews appeared to be school board members.
What is the purpose of having these meetings if you are going to cancel, silence and adjourn the meeting everytime someone brings up something YOU dont like.
Pull your kids out of the governments schools. Put together a community home school - there are other ways to achieve a high school graduation certificate. Logic: If there are no kids in public schools, there is no need for a "School Board". Simple.
Why are parents being disrespectful? Maybe because they're sick of being sidelined on decisions regarding their children. Parents don't want their children exposed to things that do not align to their values. Why can't the board respect this. And the president had the nerve to say it was out of Towner's. Unbelievable. The board IS NOT listening.
The host of 208 doesn't understand. The lady made it hostile by shutting the parents down and not wanting to hear them because of the comments they were making about the decisions the school board made w/o parents input. Panel twisted the discussion.
School boards are elected by the People of their district to oversee the operations of the public schools for the People. For the People. Part of that role is to hear how the People of the district desire the schools be run. If there is push back on policy that needs to be heard. If the President felt scared and intimidated, particularly with armed police present, or just hearing anger towards policy, she should not be in a political position. Also sounds like they may need a better attorney who knows Idaho laws governing schools.
@@ascoop22 No, it means that it’s time to walk back a retarded, twisted policy, apologize to the community for even considering it, publicly resign, and walk out of the room to never enter politics again.
@@TheDmitriProject The community also has people for the policy. I doubt the board did that all on it's own. I can't understand it myself, the whole trans thing, I would vote no. This school needs to take a vote on it. There are lots of bathrooms in schools, they could just put, Trans, on one door. Problem solved. I don't know why any kid would want to do that to them self and suffer the ridicule of other kids. Or are not kids cruel and abusive anymore? It is retarded and twisted.
@@ronaldstokes4841 The crowd was repeatedly warned to maintain order, it got out of hand so the meeting ended. I looked to me that the board was there to hear people.
per "Robert"s Rule" Once discussion has begun the board cannot adjourn a meeting, they may call for a recess and or a Caucus. They went against Parliamentary Law of Business conduct.
The school panel just didn't want to hear the parents because they wanted to tell them about the abuse and unfair and wanted decisions of their agenda the school board has applied.
I bet that if enough of the parents got together & took their kids out of school & did some kind of home school the school would be forced to make a change.
I bet no one would ever propose that trash policy in town again if some of the local dads got together, kicked down some doors at night, and tied these fools to a flagpole covered in tar and feathers.
That would work. But no one will do it because that would require coordination and time/effort. And two working parent households couldn't survive without the free babysitter that is the school. Money talks.
If you don't listen to the constituency, you don't merit any respect. Applause and anger are a form of communication when parents are concerned for their children. Dump that board.
"extended clip" LMAO that's a good one. You mean your heavily edited clip where you only show a handful of people yelling following the meeting being unfairly adjourned because the senator calmly accused the board president of not following protocol after she recessed the meeting in a clear attempt to shut the senator up because she got angry when he, again calmly, asked her to listen to him when she turned away and started chatting with her colleague while the senator was speaking? You mean the clip where the only arguments you showed were 2 of the board members by themselves after the fact where what they were saying couldn't be challenged? You mean the clip that you purposefully rearranged to be out of chronological order to make it seem like the few members of the audience that did yell back, that you zoomed in on to make them stand out while removing from view the vast majority of the audience who weren't yelling, did so before the president unfairly adjourned the meeting to shut the senator up? You mean the clip where you cut out the senators preface where he mentioned all the laws the board was breaking, including on where they illegally disallowed any criticism against themselves? This meeting was a clear example of liberals doing what they always do, breaking and ignoring the rules that apply to them while making up and enforcing ridiculous rules for everyone else while doing everything they can to unjustly silence speech contrary to their views, while this video is the same; a clear example of liberals doing what they always do with you chopping up and rearranging video of the event in a purposefully calculated manner to fit your stance instead of what actually happened all while accusing the other side of doing the exact thing you're doing yourself, "The problem here though is that the Caldwell School Board is being possibly portrayed to a national audience as being unwilling to listen to the conservative parents that have serious and valid concerns." If that were true, which it clearly isn't to anyone who actually watches the full clip, in order, they wouldn't have shut down the meeting in what was a blatant attempt to silence the senator for presenting arguments against their agenda they clearly knew they would be unable to legitimately refute.
I’m pretty sure the comment you posted is a form of that entitlement that you had yet to experience… only commented here in hope that you may come back read this and experience it.
Rape has already been committed and was directly connected to this policy. This is criminal. If anyone else had minors of the opposite biological sex taking off their clothes in the same room they would go to prison and make the sex offenders list. I agree with the senator. I see nothing in this heavily edited version that would give me reason to think differently. This is criminal and they should be charged for it.
I heard no one say that kids should not be allowed to identify as they feel. I heard parents object to ignoring the safety and privacy of young girls in favor of allowing biological males to undress in the same spaces.
Absolutely not. That encourages and promotes the transvestite agenda. Transgenderism is not normal, it effects less than 0.1% of the population and it is a mental health disorder. Normalizing and promoting that within our culture is an insane thing to do.
@@charlesbrown4483 I agree. But the left is so hot on the issue. I guess because they are all freaks of nature. It basically is happening because it's the left and they buy votes with our tax dollars literally. All the gays and trans they got their votes because of stupid sh*t like this. In California they spend so much time on laws like the ones they got. If you own a store that sells baby items you must have a certain percentage of non gender colors.Meaning you can't just have blue or pink. It's the law. Lots of gay money out there and the democrats want to exploit it. It's big money for the democrats as well as they want their votes. They could care less about the children. Every child they have to get a operation they have their vote locked up for life is what they think.

When the school board it so surprised by turn out of parents to oppose their "plans", you just got a clue that your "plan" is NOT acceptable to anyone but YOU! If you weren't so out of touch with reality you might have been less surprised!
Not actually true- if you listened to the story there where many other parents there that wanted to speak. . I wonder why they didn’t. I wonder if it had to do with the bellowing lunatic sounding “adults”. They set such a great example for all children by yelling and calling each other names. Because THATS what you do when you feel triggered, RIGHT!?
@@kimberlykimball3206 ever heard of the law of cause and effect? ever heard of freewill? They are forever married to each other and this is not something you can debate, it's not something that can be obfuscated, it's not something taught at every level of education until it is forefront in every human beings mind and THIS is the problem.

"Gender identity policy is a very sensitive subject, make no mistake." Why is it sensitive? Because it has to do with impressionable young children of Caldwell, Idaho which is being followed state wide by other school districts. To see if this school district will just roll over to left-wing Democrat activists trying to change traditional family values, this state has been living by since our founding. There are 2 genders is what we teach our children at home on nights and weekends. So we don't want our schools trying to re-educate our children during the day. You're trying to be fair and transparent to some degree and we'll see if it continues.
You are not fit to be in School Board or any board. We saw others Board meeting, the school.board oppressed the parents who were gentle and asking all the right questions.
NO, they did not want to hear from the conservative parents. To treat a group of angry adults like they are 1st graders, telling them to stay quiet in the audience is ridiculous and a power grab by the board. I watched the entire meeting. They ended it because they didn't like what the congressman was saying. The parents have a right to vent, clap, cheer.
Parents need to take back control and install a revolving door for the school board members. The realty of the situation is that the parents and residence of the area control that school board, they provide money, every penny in that district. The community elected them, the community can eliminate them. Who called in the police, that seems “intimidating”, why would you introduce guns into a school board meeting, on a school campus? Let’s be fair no guns means no guns, no exceptions.
It's not a biased report in any way, he was completely neutral. He was clear that parents should have their say but not turn into a hostile crowd. Maybe you didn't watch the end of the video? If the crowd would have stayed calm the meeting would have continued.
The Caldwell Idaho School board and school District have violated Idaho State law. Time to make arrests of the Caldwell Idaho School Board and Achool District. Get tough get mean Educate these law brakers.
Only hostility occurred when the pres. adjourned the meeting. Thereby, not allowing the parents to voice their concerns. It does't take a rocket science to see this.
Isnt the answer that NO PENIS be allowed in the girls locker room ,and of course vica versa. This situation alienates those they pretend to protect. I wouldnt imagine that full genital reconstruction would be high on the agenda of a trans child ,just to use a different toilet. This offends more than it protects . I cant understand ,how medical privacy ,especially of a trans child ,is not taken into account here.
I applaud those parents!! If I had kids in that school I’d pull them out in a heartbeat! I’d go around informing ALL parents in that school of this and gather more support so they ALL show up to every meeting! And I’d also go full on to get each one of them booted from their position on the board!
You know the founding fathers would tar and feather tax collectors back in the day. And those dudes were not even messing with their kids. The parents being rowdy and shouting is showing restraint given what is at stake for them. all school districts need laws that make it possible for parents to eject entire school boards if a supermajority of the parents agrees to do so. And I think we need to start limiting who is allowed to vote for school board elections to those who actually have children in the system.
You are scared for the safety of your board!!!!!! The parents are scared for the safety of their children. In 7th grade I was molested at school and never forgot!!!!!!! How are your bank accounts?????
This meeting was volatile but not dangerous in any way. Overt Police presence was an inappropriate over reaction. Emotions where understandably running high, because of this very emotive subject for parents - they pay the salaries of the school board and the Police, and had every right to be heard. A professional approach by the school board would be to ditch the authoritarian, confrontational approach and let people speak. It would have helped reduce the tension in the room and simply accommodated freedom of speech.
I forsee at least few of these chair people getting assaulted. That wouldn't be right, but that's a very real danger. "Mob mentality?" These people are OUTRAGED that these dangerous policies endangering children. They DON'T want to "hear both sides" is untrue. Why would they crate these policies without the parents' ok??? They do NOT belong in elementary schools!!
why don't all the parents just stop their kids going to school en masse? .. a few weeks of non attendance I think wouldn't do a great deal of harm to the students
And yet, this biased news station shows a clip where the parents were furious because the board adjourned the meeting. When the senator was speaking she wasn't even paying attention. You asked for the mob mentality when you didn't allow the senator/parent to finish speaking. He cited numerous laws which the board was oblivious to and they decided to shut him down. They are cowards. If you make rules then expect discourse when they are controversial. The board only wanted to hear from people who agreed with them. It is amazing to see all of the bending backwards for the tiniest fraction of the population and yet give NO regards towards the feelings and dangers that it sets upon the majority of students. It is sad to see that little girls are learning early in life that they can be pushed around and subjected to the whims of boys and men. This takes females rights back to the 1800's. Just for the record, I am a guy who thinks this is disgusting and all people especially girls and women need to fight this with all they got, lest any gains you may have made over the last 50 plus years will be lost.
Good grief! Another embarrassment for Idaho. Maybe Caldwell can break Nampa's record of 24 banned books. Who knows? If they all pull together, they can ban 50, maybe even 100 books!
First of all , I’m not sure who these individuals on the school board think they are , however, they should realize it’s the parents who make the choices for their children’s safety and overall general health ! That is inclusive of their psychological health . If someone thinks they are a female when their genetics profoundly states that they are male means only one thing and that is that they are in need of psychological counseling to straighten out their misconception of who they are . That doesn’t mean that everyone in the class has to provide the individual who is suffering from a delusion full cooperation. That’s total nonsense! That specific individual is affected by a psychological disorder called gender dysphoria . Why is it that we have to accept this person when they themselves don’t accept who they are? It’s quite evident the school board is pandering to the lgbtq community and their alienation of normalcy. Which is rather suspect to the concept of grooming children who are indeed impressionable .
Interesting Update, the Calwell School Board needs to update these Transgender Rules again by eliminating them. The Idaho Legislature passed new laws effective immediately basically, you use the restrooms according to your 'birth certificate'.
Judging from the comments in this video, as well as the crowd at the school board, which seem to have been unanimous in favoring safety and privacy for teenage children while in a bathroom, what is "simply not productive" is the propaganda in this video.
They cut it off when that man was making a point, the meeting wasn't getting out of hand!! The parents we're just telling the truth.

The title of this video indicated there was support, as well as criticism, for the school board, but the only support type interviews appeared to be school board members.
What is the purpose of having these meetings if you are going to cancel, silence and adjourn the meeting everytime someone brings up something YOU dont like.
You skipped the part where the school board asked for a 15 minute break in the middle of the man time at the stand. That is what made people upset.
Pull your kids out of the governments schools. Put together a community home school - there are other ways to achieve a high school graduation certificate. Logic: If there are no kids in public schools, there is no need for a "School Board". Simple.
Why are parents being disrespectful? Maybe because they're sick of being sidelined on decisions regarding their children. Parents don't want their children exposed to things that do not align to their values. Why can't the board respect this. And the president had the nerve to say it was out of Towner's. Unbelievable. The board IS NOT listening.
The democrats don't want to hear from you once trans gender is mentioned They are a sick and mentally ill bunch
Id be pissed too. Don't tell me to call down when my girl is r@ped by your trans girl.
Good for them! God bless these parents!
Vote them out ...take thir jobs away .... no more no more ... not going to tolerate it.
Amen. Enough is Enough.
The host of 208 doesn't understand. The lady made it hostile by shutting the parents down and not wanting to hear them because of the comments they were making about the decisions the school board made w/o parents input. Panel twisted the discussion.
School boards are elected by the People of their district to oversee the operations of the public schools for the People. For the People. Part of that role is to hear how the People of the district desire the schools be run. If there is push back on policy that needs to be heard. If the President felt scared and intimidated, particularly with armed police present, or just hearing anger towards policy, she should not be in a political position. Also sounds like they may need a better attorney who knows Idaho laws governing schools.
If the President felt scared and intimidated doesn't it mean the crowd was getting too heated and it was time to adjourn?
@@ascoop22 No, it means that it’s time to walk back a retarded, twisted policy, apologize to the community for even considering it, publicly resign, and walk out of the room to never enter politics again.
@@TheDmitriProject The community also has people for the policy. I doubt the board did that all on it's own. I can't understand it myself, the whole trans thing, I would vote no. This school needs to take a vote on it. There are lots of bathrooms in schools, they could just put, Trans, on one door. Problem solved. I don't know why any kid would want to do that to them self and suffer the ridicule of other kids. Or are not kids cruel and abusive anymore? It is retarded and twisted.
@@ascoop22 Seems to me he wasn't afraid, he jus' didn' wanna hear what was bein' said.
@@ronaldstokes4841 The crowd was repeatedly warned to maintain order, it got out of hand so the meeting ended. I looked to me that the board was there to hear people.
per "Robert"s Rule" Once discussion has begun the board cannot adjourn a meeting, they may call for a recess and or a Caucus. They went against Parliamentary Law of Business conduct.
the parents have the right to be vocal.
The school panel just didn't want to hear the parents because they wanted to tell them about the abuse and unfair and wanted decisions of their agenda the school board has applied.
When you are cut off and not allowed to speak you then resort to anger. There was no yelling before that
I bet that if enough of the parents got together & took their kids out of school & did some kind of home school the school would be forced to make a change.
I bet no one would ever propose that trash policy in town again if some of the local dads got together, kicked down some doors at night, and tied these fools to a flagpole covered in tar and feathers.
That would work. But no one will do it because that would require coordination and time/effort. And two working parent households couldn't survive without the free babysitter that is the school. Money talks.
That's the answer!! Home school. Cause Idaho would be better if everyone was home schooled. SMH
@@rafaelmendez8588 kids would be better off if they were home schooled but in this society the majority of parents have to work.
@@Zusinna no way, even if they didnt work. Most parents cant teach nor are they educated enough to teach them the curriculum.
If you don't listen to the constituency, you don't merit any respect. Applause and anger are a form of communication when parents are concerned for their children. Dump that board.
Sick of sick people.
"extended clip" LMAO that's a good one. You mean your heavily edited clip where you only show a handful of people yelling following the meeting being unfairly adjourned because the senator calmly accused the board president of not following protocol after she recessed the meeting in a clear attempt to shut the senator up because she got angry when he, again calmly, asked her to listen to him when she turned away and started chatting with her colleague while the senator was speaking? You mean the clip where the only arguments you showed were 2 of the board members by themselves after the fact where what they were saying couldn't be challenged? You mean the clip that you purposefully rearranged to be out of chronological order to make it seem like the few members of the audience that did yell back, that you zoomed in on to make them stand out while removing from view the vast majority of the audience who weren't yelling, did so before the president unfairly adjourned the meeting to shut the senator up? You mean the clip where you cut out the senators preface where he mentioned all the laws the board was breaking, including on where they illegally disallowed any criticism against themselves? This meeting was a clear example of liberals doing what they always do, breaking and ignoring the rules that apply to them while making up and enforcing ridiculous rules for everyone else while doing everything they can to unjustly silence speech contrary to their views, while this video is the same; a clear example of liberals doing what they always do with you chopping up and rearranging video of the event in a purposefully calculated manner to fit your stance instead of what actually happened all while accusing the other side of doing the exact thing you're doing yourself, "The problem here though is that the Caldwell School Board is being possibly portrayed to a national audience as being unwilling to listen to the conservative parents that have serious and valid concerns." If that were true, which it clearly isn't to anyone who actually watches the full clip, in order, they wouldn't have shut down the meeting in what was a blatant attempt to silence the senator for presenting arguments against their agenda they clearly knew they would be unable to legitimately refute.
The people are tired of woke madness.
Trans rights
@@1fault No such thing... we all have EQUAL rights.
Fire and sue that scool board. They represent only themselves.
And the host of 208 mentions that a
Everyone is entitled to their opinion without Interruption. I have yet to experience this myself.
I’m pretty sure the comment you posted is a form of that entitlement that you had yet to experience… only commented here in hope that you may come back read this and experience it.
School boards are no different from our laughable government we have nowadays.
Take the school board to court
Senator needs to sue or have a meeting with lawyers or other format with this school. Parents need to sue.
I hope the reporter read the comments .
You can't make this stuff up ....he literally telling us not to believe what we've seen with our own eye's. 😂
Why and HOW is this a thing? Men in a girls bathroom and locker room is scary and dreadfully surreal 😢
What? “Men in the girls locker room”? Try watching the video again, and this time listen.
Rape has already been committed and was directly connected to this policy. This is criminal. If anyone else had minors of the opposite biological sex taking off their clothes in the same room they would go to prison and make the sex offenders list. I agree with the senator. I see nothing in this heavily edited version that would give me reason to think differently. This is criminal and they should be charged for it.
I heard no one say that kids should not be allowed to identify as they feel. I heard parents object to ignoring the safety and privacy of young girls in favor of allowing biological males to undress in the same spaces.
Easy solution. get a third locker room for the confused. Girls / Boys / Confused
Absolutely not. That encourages and promotes the transvestite agenda. Transgenderism is not normal, it effects less than 0.1% of the population and it is a mental health disorder. Normalizing and promoting that within our culture is an insane thing to do.
@@charlesbrown4483 I agree. But the left is so hot on the issue. I guess because they are all freaks of nature. It basically is happening because it's the left and they buy votes with our tax dollars literally. All the gays and trans they got their votes because of stupid sh*t like this. In California they spend so much time on laws like the ones they got. If you own a store that sells baby items you must have a certain percentage of non gender colors.Meaning you can't just have blue or pink. It's the law. Lots of gay money out there and the democrats want to exploit it. It's big money for the democrats as well as they want their votes. They could care less about the children. Every child they have to get a operation they have their vote locked up for life is what they think.
its sickening that people who get paid by public money dont give a s**t about those they represent. something is incredibly wrong and broken.
Yeah Greg, THATS WHY they stopped the meeting early. The screaming parents behaving like baboons had absolutely NOTHING to do with anything, huh?
We will be putting God back into the school's and back into this country 🙏
@Rhonda Wilson A little boy took his dog to school one day only to have his dog thrown out of the school. Upon leaving the building he saw Jesus outside. Jesus said " that's OK boy, they won't let me in either."
Keep GOD out of schools. Our founding fathers said so as well.
Yeah I’d rather keep God out please whilst keeping little girls safe.
@@SOAM6 Little girls are not unsafe. Get a grip in this case and how does God keep them safe here?
@@rafaelmendez8588 I dunno, I'm an atheist but Catholic schools seem to be way ahead of public schools. Christian beliefs are usually based in manners. Treating others as we wanna be treated is a very Christian value... why not teach it?
The school board are being fascists
The parents were respectful.....the board didn't want to hear opposing views. When did it become acceptable to put young girls at risk?!?
This School Board is a joke!
When the school board it so surprised by turn out of parents to oppose their "plans", you just got a clue that your "plan" is NOT acceptable to anyone but YOU!
If you weren't so out of touch with reality you might have been less surprised!
Not actually true- if you listened to the story there where many other parents there that wanted to speak. . I wonder why they didn’t. I wonder if it had to do with the bellowing lunatic sounding “adults”. They set such a great example for all children by yelling and calling each other names. Because THATS what you do when you feel triggered, RIGHT!?
@@kimberlykimball3206 ever heard of the law of cause and effect? ever heard of freewill? They are forever married to each other and this is not something you can debate, it's not something that can be obfuscated, it's not something taught at every level of education until it is forefront in every human beings mind and THIS is the problem. Society has been allowed to devolve into chaos because cause and effect is involved in every action or sentence spoken by every human being and we ignore it even though we are now experiencing the negative effects that have been culminating for decades. Go ahead, keep ignoring it and when everything collapses all around you you can say, remember that lunatic who kept talking about our refusal to take personal responsibility for OUR OWN ACTIONS?
When representation no longer represents logic and reason, truth and wisdom become agenda and dictation. Only psychopaths seek ultimate power and control without question to their authority, and these are what we are left with when there is no truth from the people allowed.
We replaced education with indoctrination as soon as the department of education was created back in 1980. Stop being O.K. with wait and see, because by the time we see, it's too late to do anything about it!
@@kimberlykimball3206 It was a great example... teaching their kids to 'speak up'! That door says, "LADIES"! If a penis is dangling 'tween your legs, STAY OUT! How is that so hard to understand?
@@ronaldstokes4841 Again, not saying you’re ignorant, but you are in NO place to judge unless you’ve been in their shoes. That could have very well have been your daughter or son with sexually identity issues. Yeah! You think you’re somehow immune from this? And again- just to drive my point in- you’re NOT in a place to judge. It’s not your job and no one nominated you. That responsibility belongs to Christ. So try, just try to behave like him and follow his commandments of loving one another. I didn’t see an asterisk next to that one. You do know that trans kids are more than twice as likely to be sexually assaulted, right? You and your prejudice aren’t the victim here.
@@kimberlykimball3206 Common Sense is not prejudice. I don't recall Christ being nominated for anything. He spoke out against ludicrous ideas... and so shall I!
"Gender identity policy is a very sensitive subject, make no mistake." Why is it sensitive? Because it has to do with impressionable young children of Caldwell, Idaho which is being followed state wide by other school districts. To see if this school district will just roll over to left-wing Democrat activists trying to change traditional family values, this state has been living by since our founding. There are 2 genders is what we teach our children at home on nights and weekends. So we don't want our schools trying to re-educate our children during the day. You're trying to be fair and transparent to some degree and we'll see if it continues.
I'm glad I saw the before video.
You are not fit to be in School Board or any board. We saw others Board meeting, the school.board oppressed the parents who were gentle and asking all the right questions.
Boycott KTVB.
Run for office. Reject the cult’s ideology.
Each and everyone one of those Board members need to be removed and voted out ASAP! Cowards, is RiGHT!!!
I'm here because Forbes didn't allow comments.
VOTE those board members OUT!!!!!
If this is a elected body VOTE THEM OUT
I identify as a Christian, my pronouns are " He is the King of Kings" and/or "He is the TRUTH and THE LIGHT"
Since the people voted them in, then the people should vote them out now that they know what their agenda is!
NO, they did not want to hear from the conservative parents. To treat a group of angry adults like they are 1st graders, telling them to stay quiet in the audience is ridiculous and a power grab by the board. I watched the entire meeting. They ended it because they didn't like what the congressman was saying. The parents have a right to vent, clap, cheer.
School board needs to be replaced. The lady that heads it is violating policy and the law.
Parents need to take back control and install a revolving door for the school board members. The realty of the situation is that the parents and residence of the area control that school board, they provide money, every penny in that district. The community elected them, the community can eliminate them. Who called in the police, that seems “intimidating”, why would you introduce guns into a school board meeting, on a school campus? Let’s be fair no guns means no guns, no exceptions.
Such a bias report , how disappointing
Remember when journalist and reporters were professional and didn't have opinions? I miss that.
It's not a biased report in any way, he was completely neutral. He was clear that parents should have their say but not turn into a hostile crowd. Maybe you didn't watch the end of the video? If the crowd would have stayed calm the meeting would have continued.
@@ascoop22 I watch the whole video. It’s my opinion I will agree to disagree.
The Caldwell Idaho School board and school District have violated Idaho State law. Time to make arrests of the Caldwell Idaho School Board and Achool District. Get tough get mean Educate these law brakers.
Only hostility occurred when the pres. adjourned the meeting. Thereby, not allowing the parents to voice their concerns. It does't take a rocket science to see this.
The board needs to grow a thicker skin. If they don’t want to be there~ LEAVE
Isnt the answer that NO PENIS be allowed in the girls locker room ,and of course vica versa. This situation alienates those they pretend to protect. I wouldnt imagine that full genital reconstruction would be high on the agenda of a trans child ,just to use a different toilet. This offends more than it protects . I cant understand ,how medical privacy ,especially of a trans child ,is not taken into account here.
How does this Hispanic lady know the crowd was from out of town. The panel just didn't want to be criticized! Sad they can't take it.
Vote all those people out!!!!
The whole board should get fired!
Let's hope none of them ever go to France, where they've had unsex toilets for years, imagine the melt down
Got out of hand? Because tge board didn’t agree with being told they are wrong? This is what we call reporting or journalism?
I applaud those parents!! If I had kids in that school I’d pull them out in a heartbeat! I’d go around informing ALL parents in that school of this and gather more support so they ALL show up to every meeting! And I’d also go full on to get each one of them booted from their position on the board!
KEEP STANDING UP. WERE TAKING OUR COUNTRY BACK
You know the founding fathers would tar and feather tax collectors back in the day. And those dudes were not even messing with their kids. The parents being rowdy and shouting is showing restraint given what is at stake for them. all school districts need laws that make it possible for parents to eject entire school boards if a supermajority of the parents agrees to do so. And I think we need to start limiting who is allowed to vote for school board elections to those who actually have children in the system.
Looking at all the comments KTVB has failed!
They are endangering the students and violating the constitutional rights of the parents and students. They are violating the law.
You are scared for the safety of your board!!!!!! The parents are scared for the safety of their children. In 7th grade I was molested at school and never forgot!!!!!!! How are your bank accounts?????
Resign if you cant take it. At the end of the day Garland made it very clear... Parents have the right to address any issue. Cant make threats .
This meeting was volatile but not dangerous in any way. Overt Police presence was an inappropriate over reaction. Emotions where understandably running high, because of this very emotive subject for parents - they pay the salaries of the school board and the Police, and had every right to be heard. A professional approach by the school board would be to ditch the authoritarian, confrontational approach and let people speak. It would have helped reduce the tension in the room and simply accommodated freedom of speech.
The chair"cow" of the meeting using the non-word "ascared"....PRICELESS!
I forsee at least few of these chair people getting assaulted. That wouldn't be right, but that's a very real danger. "Mob mentality?" These people are OUTRAGED that these dangerous policies endangering children. They DON'T want to "hear both sides" is untrue. Why would they crate these policies without the parents' ok??? They do NOT belong in elementary schools!!
These woke people on the school board should all be fired now.
why don't all the parents just stop their kids going to school en masse? .. a few weeks of non attendance I think wouldn't do a great deal of harm to the students
This guy is a liar. The meeting was adjourned when the congressman was talking and the crowd was quiet. These people are liars.
I am sooo proud of these parents ! Do not let these pigs destroy your kids life !.
And yet, this biased news station shows a clip where the parents were furious because the board adjourned the meeting. When the senator was speaking she wasn't even paying attention. You asked for the mob mentality when you didn't allow the senator/parent to finish speaking. He cited numerous laws which the board was oblivious to and they decided to shut him down. They are cowards. If you make rules then expect discourse when they are controversial. The board only wanted to hear from people who agreed with them. It is amazing to see all of the bending backwards for the tiniest fraction of the population and yet give NO regards towards the feelings and dangers that it sets upon the majority of students. It is sad to see that little girls are learning early in life that they can be pushed around and subjected to the whims of boys and men. This takes females rights back to the 1800's. Just for the record, I am a guy who thinks this is disgusting and all people especially girls and women need to fight this with all they got, lest any gains you may have made over the last 50 plus years will be lost.
Have a look at the board members. Enough said 🤮
Good grief! Another embarrassment for Idaho. Maybe Caldwell can break Nampa's record of 24 banned books. Who knows? If they all pull together, they can ban 50, maybe even 100 books!
Those books are NOT banned. They are marked as 'Inappropriate for children'. If an adult wants to read these books, they are available.
First of all , I’m not sure who these individuals on the school board think they are , however, they should realize it’s the parents who make the choices for their children’s safety and overall general health ! That is inclusive of their psychological health . If someone thinks they are a female when their genetics profoundly states that they are male means only one thing and that is that they are in need of psychological counseling to straighten out their misconception of who they are . That doesn’t mean that everyone in the class has to provide the individual who is suffering from a delusion full cooperation. That’s total nonsense! That specific individual is affected by a psychological disorder called gender dysphoria . Why is it that we have to accept this person when they themselves don’t accept who they are? It’s quite evident the school board is pandering to the lgbtq community and their alienation of normalcy. Which is rather suspect to the concept of grooming children who are indeed impressionable .
I identify as the president of the United States. I'm walking into the White House.
(You'd probably do a better job than the current occupant)
Vote this lady out! You'd be mad to be if your daughter is in the bathroom with a boy!!!!!
Interesting Update, the Calwell School Board needs to update these Transgender Rules again by eliminating them. The Idaho Legislature passed new laws effective immediately basically, you use the restrooms according to your 'birth certificate'.
If you really wanna make a statement all the Parents To take all their kids out Of schools
How does she know that the people in the audience where from out of town?
Civil service is a good thing when you , have normal mentally not when you are dictating.
Judging from the comments in this video, as well as the crowd at the school board, which seem to have been unanimous in favoring safety and privacy for teenage children while in a bathroom, what is "simply not productive" is the propaganda in this video.
not religious but isn't there a line that talks about leaving sound doctrane
