In america, if you are in any sort of position of power you’re not really ‘cool’ unless you travel with the trump/epstein crowd.
I remember trying to be cool. I was 14.
Did it work?
No… :)
And he left a dangling participal at the end of his question too. Absolutely unacceptable behavior for any school administration. Out with him.
Out with him.
Bad news
Let me guess.
Evangelical MAGA Republican?
“I’m so surprised,” said no one ever.
Does this girl not have a dad? If some man said that to my daughter I’d catch a charge wtf dude
By the way, he asked her what school she goes to… As if he doesnt already know.
(☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞Thankfully, if that hard-to-get little vixen of a teenager lied about what school she goes to, he likely has the resources to look up her school and home address!
I was gonna make a joke back about him bringing her some homework but i think the ick factor dropped it being funny to me again.
Cause i mean… He could. He could look up her address and likely her parents and know when to abuse his position to go to her house or pull her out of class. Its not funny to pretend to not be upset about this is where i am at.
Not “likely”, definitely.
And, the “resources” is an email to the school administration. They wouldn’t even ask why. They’d just send over her entire file--address, family, friends, grades, classes, teachers, school schedule, after school activities--everything.
Later, he would be heard to scoff in indignation at the response to his comment saying “what it was a compliment!”
He went on to tell the female reporter to smile more.
Later he would be heard giving talks about how LGBTQ is detrimental to psychology of minors.
Mighty Christian
Wow, that’s… that’s pretty cut-and-dry. Like honestly what the fuck? How the hell did literally no one stop that meeting right then and there?
Tennessee not exactly known for being civilized and Trump won Washington County by 39 points over Harris in 2024. These people are exactly who’d you expect in Appalachia.
He only wrapped his arm around her and asked where a
hotchild could be found later…She was in no immediate danger. Didnt you hear the school board’s statement?
Adult: ‘What school do you go to?’ -child answers adult- Adult: ‘Allllriiiiiiiiiiiiiight!!!’
The lean in…gross. All of it, disgusting and completely unacceptable. I feel sorry for that child, and can’t believe not a single board member stood up and called it for what it was and immediately stopped the proceedings. That was my first instinct imagining myself there. Full fucking stop, protect that child and bring that nasty man to account.
Are people in such a true state of psychosis these days that we just ‘heh heh this is fine’ fucking everything now?
We only interact with things that make us happy or joy.
I wouldnt feel joy calling out his behavior so I don’t.
anyone else in that room who did not immediately stand up and drag this douche out by the ear is complicit.
Didnt hear them laughing at it and the one older lady going “ohhh you” as if he does this all the time to children?
Cause they are accpeting of it. It comes from being bigger than the allegations.People also laugh when they are uncomfortable and don’t know what else to do. Obviously we’d rather see objections than nervous tittering, but I wouldn’t always take laughter as active complicity / celebration.
I was being over the top with the complicity mostly out if anger at the situation. I understand that people respond poorly in stressful situations but we need to start getting better at it.
This was a time I think it mattered to speak up.
Yeah I agree with all of that. Part of what was in my mind is that I would perceive a man laughing as very different than a woman laughing. I assume that all women live under potential sexual threat from men at all times, and laughing at an advance is a way to defuse it without getting confrontational. “Haha surely you jest” is actually a deflection, even if it isn’t a head on confrontation. I’m a man and I don’t fear direct confrontations, but I understand women don’t have the same privilege as I do in this regard.
as if he does this all the time to children?
It wasn’t just “a child”, it was a fellow board member. Guy has zero respect for the office, the students, or women generally speaking.
I honestly don’t get how that makes it worse. Like, doing this to a board member is worse??? I don’t get this stance at all.
Like, doing this to a board member is worse???
Doing this to some random student is gross.
Doing this to another board member is also gross. But it signifies a kind of structural disrespect that undermines the office as well as the individual. It’s symptomatic of a general institutional disgust for student involvement in school affairs.
Like Bush Jr doing the creepy shoulder rub on Angela Merkel or - in a more extreme example - UN staffers who were “approached, accosted and raped” by fellow officials and dignitaries. It isn’t merely a personal transgression. It undermines the entire function of the representative body.
I think they meant the “oh you” comment was from a board member. The article says he said it to a student.
The student was a member of the board. That’s why they were up there next to the creep.
Students are not members of the school board. It’s an elected position that adults hold.
Read the article.
One of our colleagues, Keith Ervin, made a grossly inappropriate comment toward our student Board member.
Yeah, I am just using the word cause the article doesnt bother with it.
During the emergency meeting, the BOE is set to consider and approve a motion to censure Ervin over the comments.
by censure, I hope they mean terminate his employment
Paid vacation with a settlement bonus for endured trauma you say??
(/s)
STUPID Libtards! ALL he’s doing is Being a Pedophile! That’s like THE most Protected thing you can Do in America!

Oh nice thanks. I’m stealing this.
Launch him into the sun.
Or make him president.
As a reminder, escape velocity of the sun is far less energy taxing than reducing velocity to zero to launch them into the sun.
Why waste the fuel on a waste of space? Solar sails and the ultimate banishment“God, it’s so hot…”
How can se really know if she is hot if there is no photo?
Pedo
She’s a highschool student. If you’re over 20 and her being “hot” is even an option, you don’t deserve another birthday
