Sure, but the policy shouldn’t bar the parents from knowing what is going on.  If they disagree with the school policy it should be dealt with like any other BOE policy contention.

The hiding of the name/pronouns is what is the problem here.

Good post

The law says otherwise while they are at school.  

Not the law - state bd of Ed guidance document - but that’s not the point.   It’s pretty hard to fully support any child without having the parents.  A student’s life doesn’t start at 8 and end at 3.

And there you have it.  The state knows better than the parents.  And is why they're being sued.  

The inevitable result of leaving parents out.   The stakes for the child are far too high for the school to take the position of leaving the parents out.

Who cares. The man gave to the country well for free.

He saved this country from Hillary Clinton.   That alone was the ultimate service to our country.   So 30,000, 300,000, or 3,000,000 sq/ft - who cares?….   Of course if you suffer from TDS this is probably the kind of thing that keeps you up at night.

Just got a credit card offer ( one of the 5 or so I get a week )

0.00% untill next June

Then 30.49 %. 

What a fucking bargain

Ouch - but compared to those loan companies charging 600% on a few hundred dollar loan it probably is a bargain.

It's really weird. What other motor industry is scared to post HP numbers? Not outboard motors, nobody is dynoing their hemi or eco-boost. I'm not much into the motorbike scene so not sure there. But the sled industry sure got the fuck away from that and never looked back.

Imagine looking for a new outboard motor for your boat and not knowing what it's hp was? Sounds ridiculous. 

Agree - and it’s very weak on their part not to do so.  Cat, today, being a company that follows instead of making their own trail, does the same.

Hard to see this trend changing either.

It's definitely a huge problem in democrat run cities. I don't think arresting them is the solution though.

Arrest shouldn’t be the first thing done but a last resort.   

Former President Trump is right about the issue and in offering a solution that cleans up the streets of this problem while offering support services in place of incarceration.  It’s a problem way beyond being out of control and good for him for addressing it.

CTEC 6000 by and large have been very reliable, but I've seen a lot of 21 and 22 race sleds that have been raced with new motors in them.  

Both the Cat and the Polaris have been very good. 

The Cat went down the road at Vid pricing.  Listed it up at a ridiculously high price with 4 almost bald tires and had it sold in 2 days.  Was only going to list it for a week and if it doesn't go at full asking, was going to put new tires on it and keep riding it.  

Still not Suzuki built reliable.   Thank EPA.   I had a 2016 6000 take out the connecting rod bearing at 7k - ran ctech oil exclusively too.  Lots of carnage - ended up installing a long block.

Really? WTF thinks I care about your input on an ATV? One I rode HARD this past winter (15 gallons of premium over 5 miles pushing snow?) Come on Kevin! Learn to deal with failure posting on the Web. You’re terrible at it!

You’re in no position to give anyone advice.

Poor you. Only things I replaced on my 2002 was plastic. 4 year warranty on my 22. Expect I wasted money on that, even though dipshit kROMMER said recalls end on warranty. You trust janitor"s?

When one’s riding style is to get high MPG’s they don’t have to worry about breakdowns.

Two sleds down. Any guess what brand the sleds were?

@ZR6000RR 

I know Dumbstad will make excuses but the reality is that brand wouldn’t matter - this was no 5000 mile trail ride.

They made it. Had to be trailered the last 60 miles as one sled blew up and the other lost coil. 

Shoulda pulled the coil off the blown one.

Morgan is the primary reason we got rider forward machines these days. He used to have some pretty good SnowX battles with that guy from VT who rode yammi's. Vincent something or other.

Chris Vincent

They can’t because he didn’t.

More likely mad that the court isn’t stacked with 9 liberal justices.  Thomas is one of the best in the history of the Court.

I have followed politics since I was 8 years old when JFK was in office.  Read what the charges are and then research.
You don’t come close on this one.

Did you actually type that with a straight face?? 

That’s a good thing 😊

Of course -  private property - do any of them receive federal funds?

Has the same feel as when abortion clinic protestors are arrested being for peacefully protesting 

It’s a beautiful thing in this country that voters can vote any politician out when they ‘subvert’ the will of their constituents.  This, regardless of the color or their skin or the number of X chromosomes they were born with.

People live in a State don’t even take the time to research the facts. Just listen to what ever horse shit their party tells them. 
 

wow !  Them some brutal cuts.  Poor teachers.  Whitmer just signed the biggest education bill ever. But!!!!! The problem is lack of funds. 

Do the research for all his years in office, then you can decide if you’re example told the whole story.

Teachers get zero respect from republicans and never have.

I’m Michigan, Rick Snyder and the republican majority at that time put a real hurting on education with unfounded mandates, budgets, retirement cuts, etc.   Today the state has a massive teacher shortage.
