The park consists of property that was donated to New York State in 2006 by developer Donald Trump. Maintenance of the park was halted in 2010 due to budget constraints, and the park remains largely undeveloped as of 2015. Most of the buildings have been demolished; only a few foundations and the existing tennis court remain as of 2017.
All those poor people kicked off social platforms and suing the places because they cant get their messages of hate, intolerance, and violence out to their fellow stupid. Shame that.
My sister sent this to me (she's been a public school teacher for about 30 years now I guess, and has about had enough of this kind of stuff)
I laughed but it was a pained laugh.
Last year one of the teachers I work with had to have a meeting with admin and the parents of a student because the kid had receive a 97.8% and the parents wanted a 100%. Multiple meetings later admin finally told the parents they didn't have a leg to stand on but it did take multiple meetings to get there.

A few years ago we had to add "grades are non-negotiable evaluations" to our course syllabuses. Having just argued with more than a few students, I had assumed this was a behavior that was learned and learned early. It's unreal (and the video is funny).

That video hits real close to home in some cases. Not most, but Ive had a couple parents that escalated like that to get the rules to not apply to their kids. Never been slapped by a parent though.
KellyAnn Conway's daughter posted a video of her mother's greatest hits at home. I can't find it on YouTube to repost, but this Reddit thread has the video.
As someone who was mentally abused as a child, this video pushes a lot of anger buttons for me. I knew (just based on her associations) that the woman was a monster, but I had no idea just how abso-fucking-lutely nasty and cruel the bitch was. Even if her daughter is only publishing the "worst of" her mother, there's no excuse for what she says, under any circumstance. You never treat your children this way.

I recall at one time she claimed she did try to reach out and nothing happened. I also believe that she also threatened to emancipate and George Conway quit the Lincoln Project subsequently.
