The Mineral County High School principal and a coach/backup administrator were arrested on sexual misconduct charges this Monday ( 11/22 ). A third administrator filling in was arrested on similar but separate charges Wednesday
( 11/24 ).

Three weeks earlier the three incumbents ( of five members ) running for re-election to the school board all lost.

Some time back the County's District Attorney resigned rather than place himself inside the county where pending drunk driving/drunk on the job charges were awaiting him. He died two months later of a head-on collision with a garbage truck on a divided highway.

If you haven't guessed, our new DA is a woman.

Happy Thanksgiving!
 
This was a little too much death, dissipation and destruction for me to figure out what was going on- and too little data.

Hot time in Mineral County.

I don't know what the sexual misconduct in Mineral County involved, but around here, and this is a really sad comment on life today, when a substitute teacher, or a student teacher who is a male, chooses to work at an Elementary School, he is automatically suspect as a pedophile.
 
Ben, all males are suspect now. Children are taught this today-

Can't wait to see what effect several generations of kids with this in mind will have on society.

Let me put this another way- I don't like having kids over at my house without my wife present. No, folks, sorry, I'm not a perp- but I don't want to be accused of being one, eiher. Paranoid? Spent too many years in the City.

Sad to agree...I don't allow my Goddaughter (who lives next door) to come into the house unless, at the very least, my wife is home.
 
The people in rural Montana don't think like this...but I can't help but worry.

So, we now live in a world where all men are potential rapists, molesters, and murderers. It used to be I could meet a child's eyes in an airport- with their parents present, and talk to them. Over half the time they've been so well taught not to speak, even hello, that they ignore me.
I like talking to people. I like kids. I'll talk to people in grocery store check-out lines.

Unfortunately, the more you talk, or the more you appear 'different', sometimes makes it all the harder for any breakthrough experience.

I've always done this. I like finding 'life' in situations that are robotic and repetitive. When I'm 'on', usually people, strangers, appreciate it. We have a good time.

I'm thinking now of some of the well dressed, and well insulated women, of all ages, who will not speak to me, in say a grocery store or Walmart, for any reason.
Yeah- I know- there's a good joke in there.
These people actually have decided the risk is too great, and they would rather be isolated.
Remember when before people could speak they must be properly introduced?
Think how many couples would not have found each other if they waited for that. Or how many friends.

So we make our lives and world a little less. And it's not just the kids. It is the adults.

Check-out lines are funny. We stand there and wait. 8 years of our lives spent waiting in line, and your're not supposed to talk. Is this a test of something? Sometimes at Christmas people will talk a little more freely.

This is saddest thing I ever heard. :/
Mindset in which any man can be accused of being pedophile or something, just for a hug to kid, more if it is familly mamber is sick.

But you U.S. are yourself on guilt. Look at things like product liability and so on. This entire concept is bad.

Like: I shoot a burglar in my house just in the leg. He has criminal charges put upon him for burglary, no criminal charges again me are taken, since I defended my home and my life, but he is pleading me in at civillian court for causing "psychical and physical damage", which results in me having to pay him 20000$.
As if such things didnt happened.

As a consequence I can plead the company manufacturing the gun I shot him with, with reasoning that "I didnt know that this sporting device can be used for hurting people".
As if such things didnt happened.

You did it all yourself. The responsibillity you are ready to take for own deeds is by my means very low. Nobody is responsible for anything and if things go wrong we can sill go to court.

I m not idealistic about justice system here,its slow and corrupted as any other, but we never heard of these things, until recently and this came with american culture being fashion thing.

I recommend you this reading, which might be considered leftist, but strange thing I m not myself and I like the thoughts here.
Its a serie of reviews of books, which are related to todays world.

One is very good about today Great Britain for example:

False feminism, which is causing the harm in the way the world looks on the men and children:

To me the whole page of essays is worth of reading:

This attitude is starting over here too, its a bit of a witch-hunt. However things here are common that are unthinkable in the US. In the summer little children (up to 4 years or so) can go to the swimming pool (in private gardens or in some public bath) or the sunbathing lawn without clothes - no one cares.

On the other hand as a teacher there is a problem everytime a female student was not present at a test and has to write it at a different date. We have a silencium room for this - only a teacher (me) and the student. I always open the curtains wide so everyone from the classrooms around the corner can see nothing happens - but if the test is a long one (up to 150 minutes) there are breaks when noone is in these classrooms - a potentially dangerous situation.

Five years ago we laughed as we were told not to enter the elevator if there was only a female person in it. Now we have just accepted it as a rule - it is strange how society changes. - And charges of sexual abuse of kids play a gig role now in "dirty" divorces - it seems to be THE reason to take the kids away from their fathers - even if not even the shadow of proof is present.

In the US I think this has reached a maximum - and as US citizens like to sue everyone in the foreign countries too, our companies start to act the same way US comanies do:
- They write on the cup that coffee is hot and that it could be dangerous to spill it over ones lap.
- They write that the washing machine is not suitable to clean pets

and so on.
I think we get to live not in a democracy but in a kind of iudicracy where the lawyers and judges have the power.

Hawkwind- there is very little 'us' as in 'we' did it to ourselves. This is world wide.

At any rate, I'm not sure who 'we' are. I doubt it is my friends. I doubt it is any in this forum. "We" in the US look at those in the Cities the way you seem to be generalizing for all the US. And even in the cities this is not an accurate generalization- there is a new breed of civil libertarian emerging.


I think this is happening all over. I know what you mean though. I'm just not sure that 'individual responsibility' will triumph over socializm or the sheer weight of populations to come. In some postive areas we (the US) are far ahead of the rest of the world; we have a second amendment. In other areas, like tort reform, we are far behind. Is socialized medicine a forward or backward step? So it goes.

Where do you live?

I do want a 'Bad' US vs "Good" rest of world discussion, nor a "Bad" rest of world and a "good" US.

But whoever 'we' are, and I am not 'we'; we did bring this on ourselves. I'm just not certain it is a US event, or an event that happens when you get too many people in a given area with too much money involved. And when traditional values, like religion, are erroded by statute.


Seem's like "We" also yelled for socialized medicine in other nations, and got it, and now must live with it.

I have the terrible suspician 'we' is all of us.

I liked the direction this thread had taken. This was of true consequence and an emotional burden on every man. I didn't see coming that this evolution would be blamed on the "US". I live in the US and I blame "Them" too!

So If I am them and you are he and we are all together, Koo Koo Kachoo, then who is left to blame?

Geeze, folks, so now, not only am I careful around children and people I dont know, but it is ALL MY FAULT. This plays nicely into existential guilt.

The world is wide indeed and some parts of it doesnt consider a hug to grandchild for a crime. Like my country for example.

So that again is about responsibility for own deeds. The society HERE and THERE is like apples and pears that much I do understand, both has some bright and dark aspect, but as I said everything what comes from america (which means U.S. here) is fashion thing and it was for some time already.

I m not accusing anyone, you have to understand me, but mindset about which we are speaking about is a PRODUCT OF U.S. SOCIETY.
Not admiting that is just proof of my later statement about responsbility.

The stupidity with WE HERE are taking anything, even bad things and bad ideas, which are presented us as fashion FOR OUR OWN is another side of coin.

I m inclined to believe that majority of the situations in which accusing of sexual harrasment or simmilar things occurs are attempt to gain personal advantage of one person upon another and that laws, which had been created for defending children and working women in first instance are constantly abused by calculating individuals.
 
Unfortunately. the reason the first two were arrested was that on Friday the 19th a luncheon Birthday Party was held for the school principal at a local restaurant. The principal and coach were observed in the lewd acts by teachers, parents, and students. The incidents were confirmed by officers and the two removed fom the school Monday the 22nd. in handcuffs.

Then on Wednesday, the 24th after investigation of an unrelated teacher's complaint, the third guy, who had been seent to fill in at the High School, got taken away himself in cuffs.

Actually Hawkwind- I did the whole thing. My cat and I. We spread the Fear which became statute. We were able to do this because of a Rolling Stones song which asked the question. "Who killed the Kennedys, when after all, it was you and me."

You took me wrong. I m not intelectuall type seeing U.S. as the evil empire. (To be honest most of these stupids does, just because doing so and demonstrating it is another kind of fashion.)


Let us withdraaw from politics, it turns into flamewar way too easilly.
 
I took you as an honest and decent person, Hawkwind, who like myself, decries the loss of individual responsibility. I was afraid we were going to get bogged down. Stating I used denial was not a good omen. But I could see you striving to communicate, as was I.

The loss of individual responsibility is a process, a world wide one. You've reminded me, though, of how easily we can fall into a trap of blame. "It's the folks in the city, the Democrats, the Socialists." Or the US.

Anyway, whenever I make people laugh in a crowded store, or remind them of home and those they love (and yes, I do that too) I believe I've beaten the 'system'.

I don't think much good is going to come of teaching a generation of youngsters to avoid adult men.

I suspect, as alienated as the two sexes can be, and how few healthy roles are available, that this will indirectly increase the number of men children need to watch out for.

I also see a terrible trend; our young women are attracted to sociopathic behavior and are unable to distinguish between those individuals and healthy men.

My bright hope, that despite all the material about to hit the fan, is that Man will find a way through.

Koo Koo, Kachoo.

Sorry Ben; there's a big difference between socio-pathec and anti social.

Besides, Old Sociopaths hardly qualify....well, unless they're rich and powerful. A Senator, for instance.
