  2. I belive the sign is a vertically extended middle finger with the remainder clenched in a fist. The finger pad is turned towards the signer.
    Winston Churchill had a variation with the index and middle forming a V with the pads of the fingers turned towards himself.
    PET was known to sometimes ensure his message was delivered equitably to the hearing impaired.
    Shiny Pony has yet to make similar gestures to the deaf voting block…

  3. Its time to demolish the “modern” educational system. Contract education out. Get rid of Unions. We did better when we didn’t have teachers schools. Its become just a nest of Marxist authoritarians,, with no sense left. An inhuman institution of nester’s without brains. An organization of systematic child abuse, publicly funded.
    The one room school house full of different ages did a better job.
    Have home schooling made easy. Charter schools none Union run. Teacher evaluation.Anyone with a Political agenda or social engineering agenda fired.
    Its the only way sanity will return. Particularly if we get rid of School administrations.
    More parental control , instead of school boards run by the same nuts who are these political flunkies.
    I say the same about policing. An end to public funded police services for direct pay ones.
    This craziness is not isolated any more. Its part of the program.
    This is the political fruit of socialism gone rabid.Run by dogmatic psychopaths, propaganda junkies, predators.
    Just getting rid of the levels of administration, would pay for contracted teaching.
    To say nothing of the Political levels of oversight. The fat slug salaries of useless functionaries only interested in building bureaucratic empires.

  4. These people are so brain dead they couldn’t find their assistance with both hands. Stunningly stupid.

  5. You gotta love the politically correct autocorrect. “assistance” was originally written, “asses”.

  6. This story has been around since August, 2012. Has anyone ever heard of how it was resolved (ie., firing the brain-dead school officials)?

  7. From a comment by John in “The Children Are Our future” thread” of 12:38 am, “Those kids you’re so worried about… they’re smarter than you. And probably the only reason they’re smarter than you is because of the way they’re being educated.”
    The above story from Nebraska is how our children and grandchildren are being mis-educated today, and is one of countless stories, and some think that this is just fine. Heaven help us when we need to stand up like we did in 1939, even if a little late

  8. Right hand – thumb pointing up, remaining fingers in a fist.
    Left hand – form a fist, grasping right thumb within.
    I believe this is ASL for both “thick-skulled” and “pea-brain”, either of which would be appropriate here.
    According to reports after the incident:
    “The Spanjers won their fight.
    ‘Grand Island Public Schools is not requiring any current student with a hearing impairment to change his or her sign language name,’ a statement released from the school board on Tuesday said.”
    You go Hunter!
