[Arthur Schaper's speech to the December 16, 2024 Norwalk-La Mirada School Board meeting]:
Today is a really exciting day for Norwalk La Mirada School District.
Congratulations to Espie Free and Becky Langenwalter.
It's also an exciting day for MassResistance.
Since the middle of 2023, I have been privileged to work with a number of wonderful parents in this community, men and women who did not want their children subjected to getting directions on obtaining abortions or sex change procedures from a so-called well-being center at one of the high schools.
What has been really exciting about working with the parents in this community is that they have stayed active despite a major victory last June, when we received word from the principal and then from other staff that the well-being Center was going to be shut down for good.
The work is not done however, because there are still obscene books in the school libraries, and there are LGBT clubs that have no business being available to kids, and there is still the aftermath of the COVID-19 lockdowns. There is also grave danger with the upcoming ethnic studies program, which seeks to divide rather than unite students. We should not allow that to happen.
There are also ongoing concerns about this upcoming superintendent Natasha Baker. Will she treat teachers and staff with respect? Will she listen to the needs of students and the concerns of parents? You need to keep a close on her and make sure that she has learned the lessons from her failures at Banning and Fresno Unified.
MassResistance parents are still committed to fighting the good fight and ensuring that the school district continues to put the needs of children and the rights of parents first and shows a commitment to getting rid of all of this woke DEI LGBT garbage in the school district once and for all.
Last of all, I am compelled to speak out against a hateful Karen named Marie Miranda and her shameful husband Rudy Miranda. These despicable people have routinely defamed parents in this community, calling them terrorists and extremists simply because they don't want perversion being pushed on their children.
Their kind of bigotry reminds me of the Nazi movement that sought to label, libel, and then eliminate people they disagreed with. The only difference between them and the Ku Klux Klan is that they don't have the dignity to put white shawls to hide their faces, and their anti-religious bigotry is so great that they wouldn’t burn crosses on people’s lawns.
Such adults who work with children, and then come to a school board meeting and call parents terrorists have no business being around children, and I think that the school district needs to take a stand on this kind of abuse.
The fact of the matter is that abusive Karens like Marie Miranda can't handle the fact that the parents voted. They voted to get rid of all of the woke nonsense, and they want a school board that will actually listen to them rather than listen to hateful partisans like the Mirandas. Last of all I would like everyone in the audience to raise your hand if you are a resident in the Norwalk La Mirada School District. For some reason, bigots like Marie and Rudy Miranda oppose democracy and here don't think you matter.
That’s the real extremism, and it needs to be opposed with our collective voices.
