Good piece Manny - as a fellow OC'r, that's my kids school district that was infected with the crazy. Bands of magas crowding out parents and students at the board meetings, police escorts for the "normal" board members, bull horns in the meetings, etc.
You'll be relieved to know that 2 of the board were recently recalled via a special election and the next meeting was so odd. No drama. Just adults discussing school policies and voting. No police. No bull horns.
One cannot have rational discussions with irrational people.
