"But it's for the children!"

And we wonder why the schools are so frakked up. Go, Scott Walker, Go. Nationwide, if possible.

With support from teachers' unions such as the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers, liberals like Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) are opposing a bill that would help protect school children from the possibility of being exposed to criminals, including sex offenders, in America's schools.

The unions are also playing the race card in fighting the legislation:

The bill has run into objections from major teachers' unions like the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers. In letters to lawmakers, their criticisms included concerns that the measure might jeopardize workers' protections under union contracts.

In addition, the NEA wrote that criminal background checks "often have a huge, racially disparate impact" — a reference to critics' complaints that minorities make up a disproportionately high proportion of people convicted of crimes.

Advocates for the law have claimed there should be a zero-tolerance policy in schools, especially when it involves sex offenders. That's difficult to argue against; however, teachers' unions appear to be more interested in their own power than the safety of America's school children.

Kyle Olson, with the Education Action Group Foundation told Megyn Kelly Wednesday night on “The Kelly File” that the unions’ objection to the bill proves “unions are out to protect the adults…they are not out for the interests of the children.”

When the hell are we going to gut public employee unions nationwide? They are bankrupting this country with their incessant and ridiculously extravagant work rules and compensation packages.

I have no problem at all with unions in the private sector; if company A has to make shoddy products or raise prices to comply with the contracts they were stupid enough to sign with their unions, I can always go buy company B or C's products.

I don't have this freedom of choice with public sector services.

Does that mean gays icons like Harvey Milk the huge pedophile can no longer be held up for worship in California schools? Well liberals can't have that then!

No, I think it means that they want to be sure that children are exposed to freaks from all backgrounds.

Yeah the bill would ban those kinds of people, that's why I said the liberal couldn't have that. Of course the liberals want to expose kids to freaks like that, that's has been their agenda for at least thirty years.
