From the Daily Caller: A woman broke down in tears during a Thursday school board meeting in Royal Oak, Michigan, where multiple left-wing speakers demanded that a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) chapter be shut down.
Officials at Royal Oak High School approved the chapter on Oct. 21, according to Fox News, prompting protests from left-wing students and groups, including a walkout. During the meeting, the woman claimed that the conservative-leaning student group would promote “radicalization” of students.
“I’m a lifelong Royal Oak resident, a supporter of the Royal Oak community, as well as an advocate for young people. I too came to speak about the inclusion of Turning Point USA as a chapter being established in Royal Oak High School,” the woman, identified as Kim Johnson claimed. “I would like to first acknowledge and thank the board. I know this has been difficult. I’m deeply saddened and outraged by the current failure of democracy in our country and the correlating rise and acceptance of bigotry and hatred. I feel an obligation to speak about the way it is now impacting our own public high school.”
“The current plan to observe and allow groups like Turning Point USA is one that in my opinion will allow a path of radicalization for some of our youngest students on all parts of the extremist spectrum,” Johnson continued. “Extremist groups like Turning Point USA don’t typically keep their opinions to the confines of four walls in a meeting.”
Johnson declared she was worried about “violence,” and claimed that “extremist groups provide a safe haven for the most vulnerable and troubled among us.”
“By providing a space and a charter to exist in our high school, are we not signaling to our LGBTQ plus community, people of color, people with neurodivergencies, and those struggling with mental illness that they are not safe at school anymore?” Johnson lamented, as the tears began to flow.
