    Paladino protesters stall Buffalo School Board meeting. Again.

    Paladino protesters stall Buffalo School Board meeting. Again.

    Upset that Carl Paladino is still on the Buffalo Board of Education and impatient that the state's Education Commissioner has yet to rule on his possible removal, protesters once again turned Wednesday's School Board meeting upside down.
    More than 15 protesters dressed in black essentially shut down the meeting from the start, each taking turns reading statements or comments in opposition to Paladino — while School Board members debated whether to walk away, call the police or try to talk over them.
    Board President Barbara Seals Nevergold said she didn't want to call police to escalate the situation, and instead called a recess.

    There should be some way for the Buffalo School Board to conduct a meeting without interruptions from protestors while still allowing the public to attend and be informed. Maybe a closed meeting that can be viewed/heard by the public, and once the meeting agenda has been concluded, make time for the public attendees to bring up their concerns, ask their questions, beat on anyone they don't agree with?

    The protesters claim that Carl is distracting from the boards business while they are actually the ones who are the distraction

    Well, Carl will be gone now. So in 6 months when things haven't improved and they can't blame it on Carl being a distraction will the board members finally take responsibility and admit they're incompetent and then resign?
    Vote for freedom, not political parties.
    Politicians need to cut spending

    New York State has removed Carl Paladino from the buffalo School board.
    The tax payers of Buffalo has lost a voice for their children.
    I hope Carl will run aging for the school board.
    If I lived in Buffalo I would support him.
    Russia didn't make me vote for Trump, Hillary did.
