Threats to any R2 board members?

When I noticed one Richland 2 board member being escorted to her car after a board meeting recently, I wondered whether she had received any threats.

Then the superintendent informed another man and me before the last board meeting (9/28/21) that the same board member felt "intimidated" by both of us.

I told the superintendent that was "foolish".

I don't speak for the other man, but I would not hesitate to defend any board member, including the two trustees-elect who are not legitimate board members, if I saw they were being intimidated, harassed or otherwise attacked by anyone!

Having said that, if a public official feels intimidated by statements made that oppose their official or personal views, then they should consult with a good psychologist. Hearing opposing views goes with the territory of being an elected official.

But NO public official should be threatened or harmed. 

Nor should a public official threaten to sue a member of the public with whom she doesn't agree. Nor should a public official make false statements to a law-enforcement agency about a member of the public. Nor should a public official "block" communications from a member of the public. Nor should any public official invoke religion while addressing a member of the public.

If I sent an email such as the one I recently received, which I read to the Richland 2 school board last week (September 28, 2021), I would expect to be sued for defamation. However, I won't be suing that person. 

I shall, however, continue efforts to get that person removed from the board. She has never become a legitimate member of the Richland 2 school board, because she has never taken the oath of office legally.

In March 2019 I addressed the board and told them that this issue would not go away until Holmes and McKie took the oath of office legally. That was about 928 days ago.

Holmes claimed she was "qualified" for the office. Certainly, she was. However, on the date when the oath of office was administered (November 13, 2018), she was not eligible to take it. She had not filed her Statement of Economic Interests with the S.C. Ethics Commission. She did not become eligible to take the oath until December 4, 2018. Holmes has not taken an oath since November 13, 2018. Because of this, Holmes is usurping public office.

So is Amelia McKie. 

But those two aren't whom the superintendent claimed to feel intimidated by Gary and me.
