“Remember the Alamo” is all I could think of as I saw Julie Shaffer’s signature on the notification that was sent to Darbi Boddy, hand-delivered at 7 AM on Monday, the 18^th of March, 2024.  The letter was to notify Darbi that they were going to vote on the Lakota school board to vacate her seat since she had not been attending meetings, and now that a 90-day period had occurred, they were going to act on it on Wednesday the 20^th.  What they failed to disclose to her or the media in the wake of the incident was their complicity in the occurrence.  Darbi wanted to attend the meetings as a popularly elected school board member but couldn’t because of a court-ordered restraining order that prevented her from being 500 feet from Isaac Adi, another school board member.  So Darbi was prevented from attending the meetings by activism from that same school board, which did not work to resolve a condition they caused under advisement from Lakota’s lawyers and little Judge Lyons.  And I emphasize “little” because it exhibits a common trait many of these people get into politics for, to begin with, the power the office brings and what they are willing to do with that power.  In this Darbi Boddy case, abuses of power are everywhere, and it was interesting to watch.  But as I looked at that signature and listened to the lies that the various school board members told the public about the incident, I couldn’t help but wonder what kinds of lies Julie Shaffer told people in the wake of her famous “Remember the Alamo” dancing panties party at an education retreat where she had to be put back together again by another school board member after a night of scandal and degradation.  And here was this same person signing the notification to Darbi Boddy, her political rival on the board, to using legal gymnastics to remove her from the board, then lie about it to everyone in the wake.

Of course, the actual Alamo that occurred in Texas during the Spanish-American War involved a mob of parasites who overran the outpost there on the wild frontier, and some of America’s greatest heroes were killed in the bloodbath.  That is what is happening at Lakota schools; only Darbi Boddy will live to fight another day.  What was lost was a seat that was worthless as there an onslaught of parasites converged under the pressure of radicalism to take back their school from conservative influence.  The most significant value in Darbi’s term in office was that it revealed all the bad things I have always said were there and showed them to the community for what they are.  I wanted the election process to work, and I worked with many people I usually wouldn’t talk to for the school’s good to help make it happen.  But upon seeing that letter given to Darbi, I felt relief and freedom from playing nice with people who didn’t deserve it.  It wasn’t the first time I was willing to work with people who were not precisely as conservative as I am to do something good for Lakota.  But I get tired of being let down by them because they don’t have the guts to follow through, and they always compromise with radicals.  Ultimately, many people like to drink and get disgraced at some of these public events.  Everyone knows the Julie Shaffer story of her “Remember the Alamo” event, yet she was in a position to play her part in removing a school board member to protect the real people who run the Lakota school board, the lawyers, and the courts. 

Until Darbi was on the school board, I hadn’t noticed how much the Lakota school board punted everything to legal advice.  We always assumed we elected school board members and they worked on our behalf to run a community school.  We didn’t know that the school board was but a front group for lawyers in the background who are very progressive.  I know many of them, and they are not bastions of conservative value, especially those in the big law firms.  They are very much aligned with the Larry Finks of the world, politically, so when Darbi or anybody would speak in public to stop political activism from infecting our children, these lawyers work in the background to advance their cause on the radical left.  And the value of school board members to them is to pave the way for political activism.  And anybody who stood in the way of that would be eliminated.  The public election process was only an illusion to keep the tax money flowing through what people thought were honest elections.  But when someone like Darbi got elected, this was how the system protected itself.  If they couldn’t be controlled, they’d be eliminated.  In this case, they found a complicit victim in Isaac Adi to play his role, just as Julie Shaffer has, and the new Bobblehead Doug Horton and the outright communist, Kelly Casper.  That school board doesn’t represent the public, but it does the dirty work for the lawyers and keeps money flowing to them with easy cases and billable hours.  Because they are too stupid to think on their own, the legal bills add up for the law office with easy money that they protect with viciousness, obviously present in this Darbi Boddy case. 

And many of the characters involved are so stupid they don’t see the obvious, much like the Remember the Alamo moment in history, or Julie Shaffer’s personal disgrace, the comfort of the mob mentality often hides them from reality.  They think they can build a five-member board with hand-selected advocates for a new facilities plan and that they’ll put forth a tax increase that the public will support.  Yet, just next door in Fairfield, they just tried for another levy, which was shot down rather spectacularly.  And they forget that Darbi Boddy was popularly elected in their drunken binges where clothes are undoubtedly optional, and they giggle about it within the power of their networks of misfits.  And that she is still popularly supported.  What they have done to her will be remembered, certainly.  I think Darbi is far better off.  We learned what we needed to learn from her being in that seat, and it exposed people I had previously thought were decent people.  But it’s better to know who is doing what and why they did it, which we know now.  Like that classic battle in Texas, the short-term mob behavior overran the fortifications.  But soon after, the entire war effort collapsed under its own weight.  This is what I see happening at Lakota schools as a direct result.  The politeness was gone.  Fake news was presented for all to see because they knew the truth of what the school board did to Darbi under the guidance of the lawyers who ran everything against the taxpayer’s wishes.  And yes, we will “Remember the Alamo.”  We now have the freedom to act on what we know, which we didn’t have before because we had to work with the system to prove that we could and were willing.  But now we are free of that burden, thankfully.  We can “Remember the Alamo” and apply justice without regret.
