That's what I would do.

1. Then those who oppose would count them right along with their numbers
and many people would more than be willing to believe it. How could you separate out the one from the other?

3. But if the school isn't showing it, why would those who oppose it stay home?

7. This is so mixed up and confused by now who knows what the hell is going on anymore?
I still say that those who oppose it are going to look very stupid and one way or one time or another the kids will hear what was said.

2. call them up and threaten to sue if they ever presented a Republican President
addressing students - that's what I would do.

4. Yeah. Let the school figure out how much they'll lose in state funding
for their inability to provide for showing the speech.

I want the kids whose parents object to it to have to opt out. I want the public to know what assholes they are, and I want their kids to go home and complain about being singled out and sent to the cafeteria because their parents are racist jerks.

6. I'd like that too but it appears many schools are deciding not to show it.
It is depressing how stupid some Americans are.

10. Between the "shows" and "no shows" looks like no one is going
to school on Tuesday.

These school boards are so weak.

13. I've informed the principal I'll be coming to pick up little Miss OHT
at the appointed time so we can watch it together at home.
