Parent John Greer was almost physically assaulted by a school board member who took to violence at being called an ‘idiot’. The man is obviously worse.
Greer provided his account in a statement to 13News:
“During the board meeting I provided a demonstration with an oxygen meter proving that per OSHA standards our kids are breathing unsafe levels of oxygen due to the mask mandate in our school. Mr. Troxell asked a follow up question. I attempted to answer but he was unwilling to listen. At which point I said, ‘You’re not even trying to understand.’ He said, ‘I don’t want to listen because you don’t make sense.’ I replied with, ‘You’re an idiot.’
At which point he attempted to physically assault me but was restrained by three board members and an officer. I was seated this whole time and showed no aggression. At which point the officers escorted me out but allowed the aggressor to stay. He called me an a—— and a bastard. He then threw a temper tantrum and his papers. He attempted to quit but the board members asked him to sit down and stated ‘No, we need you.’
The meeting continued after I was escorted out and he continued to be combative and dismissive to other parents who spoke. His eyes were even closed at one point.”
In a video provided to 13News, Greer can be heard calling Troxell an idiot. At that point, Troxell gets up from his chair behind a row of tables and goes toward Greer.
“What? What’d you say? Did you call me an idiot?” Troxell yells toward Greer, who remains seated.
A school resource officer restrained Troxell.
“I’m tired of that stupid bastard,” Troxell says in the video.
The officer points toward the door and Greer can be seen getting up and apparently leaving the room.
School board meetings used to be so boring. What’s up with the sudden change into boards that act like they’re the new Politburo? Perhaps the infiltration wasn’t quite so ‘sudden’, they were just waiting on the feds to give them the go-ahead to deal with the ‘domestic terrorists’ sitting in front of them.
