Reply To: School Board Monitors in Lakewood & East Ramapo

GAW I never said anything about liberals. But I am wondering how come when Blacks are in charge Jews are discriminated against? For example, when Mayor Dinkins was in charge and his Police Commissioner was Lee Brown who was also Black there was the Crown Heights Riots. Which went on for almost a week, in which blacks attacked Jews while the police did nothing were they order not to do anything. That is unless you want to blame it on Gov. Cuomo for not taking steps to save guard the Jews who were being attacked in the streets.

All that is going to happen if the monitor is granted veto power is the a higher percentage of the Budget is going to be used for legal expenses and not the classroom. Part of the legal expenses is to fight Special Ed parents to get their children into public school as oppose to private placement, for the elected board to fight the monitor and for the monitor to fight the board.

Once the monitor has veto power there will be no tax increases as this requires the public to vote on the increase which wouldn’t happen. Right now there is not enough money to provide the education the public school parents want.

Denying Bus service and Special ed to yeshiva students will end up costing the state even more if they lose in Federal court.
