Distance learning is a tool, not an excuse for schools to control private homes

A federal judge in Louisiana this week heard oral arguments in the latest phase of cases showing again how public school establishments can be perniciously bonkers.

The Jefferson Parish School Board continues to stand firm, lacking both logic and decency, against the combined forces of the Louisiana Legislature, the state attorney general, state newspapers, the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Rifle Association, and just about every other sentient being. The board insists that COVID-related “distance learning” gives it the responsibility to enforce “zero tolerance” policies even within private homes, based on whatever a “virtual-lesson” camera might show within its field of vision.
