Pretty funny indeed (Crossposter note: thought it would fit here very well)

I’ve seen this before, but I’ve never been able to verify it as being real.

It was a legitimate protest of a stupid law that uses a legacy of inconsistent thought and limited perception to do an end run around the first amendment, but the text of the law requires a poster per building, so if they have enough in English, there would be no "need" to accept or post them. Now, if a principal or administrator had some balls, I certainly don't see why they couldn't use one of these or to flank the posters they do post with lots of context or more diverse ideas.

You don’t become a public school middle manager in Texas by showing balls. You’d get weeded out before you even got through the substitute program for teaching gym class.

Very interesting read. Ty for sharing.

And there’s tons of other schools who may not reject it. What exactly are you trying to say here with the single word “rejected” and a link?

It was rejected, sorry the meme wasn’t truly what you expected.

The way you present your message, it implies the effort was rejected statewide. That could be misleading some folks.

It was actually rejected by Carroll ISD, which is the school district covering the disproportionately white and wealthy suburb of Southlake, TX.

There are 1,021 more ISDs in Texas to go.
