MassResistance's Arthur Schaper, testifying before the Redlands school board, completely rips apart the leftists in the room and their disgusting attack tactics. They'd clearly never gotten a thrashing like this - and didn't know how to react!

Unhinged leftists can dish it out – but they can’t take it! And confronting them with the truth makes them run for cover.

In our previous post, we described how MassResistance was asked to come to Redlands, California (a conservative-leaning city 60 miles east of Los Angeles). Pro-family citizens asked for our help dealing with a terror campaign by vicious leftists aimed at a school board member and parents.

The recent election victory by Candy Olson had tipped the Redlands school board majority to 3-2 conservative. One big aim is to reverse declining school enrollment – largely due to radicalism in the schools. Candy led the charge on the board to successfully pass policies banning boys in girls’ sports and gay flags in the schools.

At the August 5 meeting, the initial vote was taken to rid the schools of pornographic books.

Leftists’ goal: Intimidate the school board to prevent passage of the book policy

But local leftists – clearly well funded and well organized – had been piling into school board meetings to curse, scream, and intimidate. They viciously attacked Candy personally and targeted her employment as a nurse. They wanted the schools to continue indoctrinating schoolchildren with the radical LGBT agenda.

Constant school board meeting disruptions: Leftists scream and chant while holding up their identical printed signs saying "Ban Candy Olson not Books."

A leftist in the audience yells in defense of a school porn book - and then gestures at the school board members (also waving her childish tatoo).

The leftists were determined to do everything possible to harass and intimidate the school board so that the proposed policy banning obscene books in the schools would fail to pass. It was frightening.

So local residents contacted MassResistance to come and help them stop the leftist mob!

When we got the call, there was very little time to organize local people before the August 5 school board meeting (where the first of two votes on the book policy would be taken). So our National Field Director, Arthur Schaper (who lives in nearby Torrance) went personally. And he gave the local pro-family people a clinic on confronting leftists!

Fireworks at the August 5 school board meeting!

As they had been doing for months before the school board meetings, the angry leftists gathered and organized just outside the building, near the entrance. They even had food brought in. They had signs and used their well-practiced intimidation tactics.

Typical leftist outside the school board building.

The leftists had T-shirts with a smarmy red "Together for Redlands" logo. This man also had a "Support Trans Youth" logo (i.e., keep them in their mental illness) on his shirt.

This angry leftist wore a button saying "Redlands Supports the Freedom to Read." As we all know, it's a slogan used by pornographers to push their products on children.

But they weren’t ready for Arthur! He walked up and directly confronted them one by one – with simple but powerful questions that they didn’t want to answer.

He unflinchingly pressed them hard to explain why they wanted to push pornography on other people’s children, how they justified calling everyone they disagreed with a Nazi, why Candy Olson  should lose her employment for wanting to protect children, and more. He wouldn’t let them ignore him! They’d clearly never had to deal with this and were visibly rattled. In response, they basically acted even more childish. It was almost fun to watch!

The pro-family people who came were inspired and emboldened by Arthur. When the school board meeting began and the testimony started, their testimony was strong!

This man said it directly: "These school librarians aren't qualified. Who would put books there with this sexual content? There is no common sense, no morals. Please move forward with this policy. God is with you, Candy, against all this evil."

This mother read a repulsive passage from one of the books in the school. Then, holding up two fingers, she said to the board, "There are two types of people here: groomers and people who want to protect kids."

When Arthur testified at the meeting, he continued his attack on the leftists. 

The policy passes both votes!

At the end of the meeting, the board approved the first vote on the book policy.

At the next school board meeting on August 19, the final vote was taken on the book policy. The leftists came, but there were fewer of them and they were visibly less boisterous, almost quiet. Their social media posts that week and the signs they carried that day showed that Arthur had clearly affected them! Our people noticed that and were energized to fight back harder than ever.

The leftists posted this pathetic social media message. Of course, everything they disagree with is "hate" (and everything they agree with is "loving").

And at the next school board meeting, they had some equally pathetic new signs in reaction to getting stomped by MassResistance!

At the end of the meeting, the second vote on the book policy also passed easily. A fine victory!

Final thoughts

There’s a lot more work to be done in Redlands. The town is mostly conservative (Trump won in Redlands), but the schools are still rife with radical leftism and LGBT propaganda.

These newly passed policies are good first steps. Another policy on parental notification is coming next.

But the goal is for families in Redlands to want to send their children to the city’s public schools, not take them out. This means cleaning out all the radical rot from the school system. That must happen! They now have a school board majority who are up to the task.

And MassResistance is willing to help the parents build a strong local grassroots movement to support the school board against the fringe leftist mob.
