That's exactly what I was thinking. Back in my substitute teaching days there was one middle school in particular that I avoided working at. The kids liked to conduct their own fire drills about 10 times a week and administration wasn't really interested in giving any consequences for it. One time I was there they were having a schoolwide assembly where the fire department showed up to talk to them and tell them why they should stop pulling the fire alarms. Now Congress behaves the same way. At least there is a snowball's chance in hell that the kids will eventually grow out of this kind of behavior, but what excuse do the adults have?
Call in bomb threats from their office phones? We once had to evacuate the school for 2 hours because a student had taken a bathroom break during class and used their cell phone to call in a bomb threat to the school office. After securing the school the sheriff called the number that the threat had come from and 3 of the students' phones rang at the same time. All 3 phones were checked but none were the culprit. Kid turned themself in a few days later.
🤣 I doubt it. I'm not that old. Is it 25 or 30 to run for Congress? The high school seniors I had in my first year subbing might be pushing 30 by now, but the fire drill cohort is still well under 25.
I’m hoping the NEA puts a policy in place making it mandatory that children are taught the difference between a doorknob and a fire alarm, since people in Congress can’t figure that out.
Unfortunately, that is an insult to morons. Morons would be too stupid to do much harm. These Congress critters are the worst mix of self-deception, lack of morals, and base cunning that enables them to do immense harm.
Someone said the alarm puller was not in charge, just a foot soldier for the real people in charge so I said “ok, foot soldier moron” then. Maybe that’s it? 😂
Honestly, don’t bother. Substack is so much more legit. If it were not for a loyal circle of like minded friends, I would bow out completely. The censorship is nuts!
Pulling a fire alarm is kinda fitting for these times, afterall the country is burning down. It is just that pouring more fuel on the fire (in the form of cash in this case) isn't going to quell the fire. The congress critter Bowman probably thought he was yelling FIRE in a crowded theater, when in reality it was theater in a crowded fire.
Well, I guess the House of Repulsisentatives decided pouring more fuel on the fire is the solution afterall. 45 days. Do ya think they will solve the underlying issues in that time? Is there any amount of road left to kick the can down?
Bowman is a domestic terrorist let’s report him to the DHS you know Merritt Garland’s favorite line if you see something say something....
Is Bowman’s actions not that if an insurrection. It’s time we throw there dribble their rules their narratives right back at them! Report them all Biden Bowman Newsome Maxine Waters AOC the list is long!!!!
I know that when they, Representatives and Senators, speak from the floor they cannot be fined or sued or arrested but I believe pulling a fire alarm is some sort of Federal offense. But that only applies when we have one system of justice.
Nope, not buying it! This is an insurrection!!! He tried to stop the business of government! Off to the prison with the Proud Boys with you!
Needs a year in solitary first before going to trial
Absolutely...effing absolutely.
Just cause you got "voted" in doesn't mean you can walk throught the halls of congress.
and pull a fire alarm...or steal a podium.
Jail for you.
AOC almost burned to death!!
And she was at home at the time.
Because...the Horror!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Congress: Junior High, for millionaire grifters and liars.

They are the ones who did it as children.
Clinical arrested development, but nothing compared to the piles of wet gravel who keep voting them into office.
Obstruction of Congress. Ignorance of the law is no excuse.

If you don't no better that to pull that crap, then you DO NOT BELONG IN PUBLIC OFFICE!
LOL for real.

Jade, Was Mr Bowman one of your students?

If we could just have cameras in classrooms to catch these bundles of joy and then have stiff consequences then they would learn.
I agree. But there are cameras in the halls of Congress to capture our elected bundles of joy and there are no consequences.
Okay, I´ll try to stay cool .... LOL!

entitled morons
Thanks for the kind reply to my comment today (13 Oct)...although it seems have disappeared for some reason?
I’m on someone’s list for deletion I think :)
Oh I see...I think! Anyway I had just been going to reply to your kind comment by sharing this link about the state of our universities: https://grahamcunningham.substack.com/p/how-diversity-narrows-the-mind But whwn I went to do this, your comment had disappeared.
I can't remember what I had written, but this LINK! Thank you
Ok, foot soldier moron
What did I miss?
Someone said the alarm puller was not in charge, just a foot soldier for the real people in charge so I said “ok, foot soldier moron” then. Maybe that’s it? 😂
... clone wars ...
Clown wars.
Reminder: As a socialist, this man thinks he's more qualified to spend your paycheck than you are.
The staffer continued, "He's just really really dumb. You understand....", making vague gestures at the Capitol building.
“ I thought that was the voting lever”
O, Mrs McFarland! You have out done yourself. Brava!
I posted the link to the “event” on FB with my snark comment... they fact checked me!!!such 🤡🤡🤡!
That’s great. I don’t utilize facebook. Maybe I should for these “event”. : )
Honestly, don’t bother. Substack is so much more legit. If it were not for a loyal circle of like minded friends, I would bow out completely. The censorship is nuts!
maybe it was painted dnc blue
He was voting for "ALARM". Leftist love alarm, and all "emergencies".
they missed spinning it properly as a teachable moment about equity
That’s not too comforting, is it?
Easy mistake to make. I remember back in high school, I would get the fire alarm confused with a final exam avoidance system.
LOL!!!
Zactly!

welp This is a fine example of just about EVERYONE in congress.
No brains.
No brains, likely. No morals or decency? Guaranteed.

Willfully breaking the law. Punishable by a fine, 6 months in jail or both.
Who wants to bet he gets none of those!
SMH these guys are like a bunch of fifth-graders!
On behalf of the 5th graders I have taught, I resent that! In fact, even 1st graders are much better than that....
Bowman is a domestic terrorist let’s report him to the DHS you know Merritt Garland’s favorite line if you see something say something....
Is Bowman’s actions not that if an insurrection. It’s time we throw there dribble their rules their narratives right back at them! Report them all Biden Bowman Newsome Maxine Waters AOC the list is long!!!!
And he won't even be charged for his crime.
Merrick Garland is too busy prosecuting those who walked around harmlessly in the same building, so I am sure Jamaal will not be prosecuted
Panic in the DisCo

If nothing else, "Obstructing Congress." Isn't that what some J6 defendants were charged with?
If you happen to be the right color. In this case, blue. The melatonin doesn't hurt, but...
And he still gets to be in Congress? If you did that in Jr. High you would be kicked out for a while...
