   Back during the Saint Floyd of Fentanyl (may peace be upon him) riots, LAUSD   
   teachers and staff were taking the kids out of class to participate in BLM   
   marches. Some of the kids preferred to stay in school because they either   
   didn't agree with the cause or because they just didn't feel comfortable or   
   safe among screaming communists, but they were forced to march by the staff.   
   They weren't allowed to stay in school or decline to participate.   
      
   It got a lot of publicity and thankfully there was some sanity left and the   
   school board demoted the principal and disciplined the school staff members.   
   Not for allowing the kids to protest, mind you, but only for forcing the   
   stragglers to do it against their will.
