More on the Horror at Mifflin High

Michelle Malkin posted about the school attack on a 16 year old high school student in Ohio. I mentioned this case about a week ago, and I wrote a letter to the school board, but have yet to hear anything...I doubt I will hear anything. I didn't hear anything back from the cowardly president of North Carolina Weslyan College either- after I wrote him in regards to the professor in his school claiming that 9/11 was an attack by the Jews and that the Iraqi terrorists are right in their killing of American soldiers, innocent men, women, and children, and others...

I am going to write up a second letter to the school board in Columbus, Ohio demanding that the assistant principals that refused to call police after this student was attacked and sexually assaulted be fire immediately, instead of having a mere 10 day suspension and undering sensitivity training. When will liberals learn that such training is a bogus nonsense...people cannot be taught to be sensitive to the needs of other human beings.

Great thing that Malkin posted about this- gets the case more attention. Hopefully, we can all make enough ruckus where they have no choice but to fire all the people involved in the coverup.

Here is my letter to the mayor in regards to this issue in general and his interview with Glenn Beck's radio show...

Mr. Mayor

I have been following the story of the rape at Mifflin High and the principals that refused to contact police, and then clearly tried to cover the issue up.

I also heard you on the Glenn Beck Show, and I must say that I am disappointed in your refusal to speak frankly about the issue. It was hard enough for Beck to get you on the program to begin with, which is shameful. Your comments to Beck, refusing to give any opinion or tell him what you would do was reprehensible. Beck had a hard time getting you to stop dodging the question, and your comments on manhood and claiming Beck was questioning your manhood were beyond puzzling.

I hope that your tactic in dealing with this issue changes. The good people of Columbus deserve an honest and frank discussion about this with their mayor, and it seems obvious to me that you're not living up to your obligation to them in this regard. I ask that you start having an open discussion with the people of the city and refrain from dodging serious questions that need to be dealt with. As of now, it seems that the assistant principals who refused to contact police and tried to cover all of this up are merely being sent to other schools. That is not good enough- these men and women are a danger to all students and should be kept away from ALL schools. Sending them to other schools does nothing but tell them that what they did was okay, and they can get away with it and still have their jobs.

I have contacted the Columbus School District and I will contact them again. I will keep doing so and I will keep drawing attention to this until they fire the staff members who refused to contact police, not just move them to another school to do damage in a new place, and to new students. Please make sure this matter is dealt with in a timely fashion and that none of these school administrators get away with this.

Thanks so much

Joshua Taj Bozeman

I will personally say that- hearing the mayor's interview with Beck, I would never support him for governor (he is, indeed, running for governor.) I would suggest anyone in Ohio support Blackwell for Governor, given the situation.

Nice blog! And thanks for adding the Ohio for Blackwell logo to your site- I added you to our blogroll.

Keep up the good work!

no problem at all. this coleman guy is showing hes inept at even running the city of columbus, no way id trust him to run the entire state!

its sad, he refuses to give the people a straight, honest, and frank discussion about this issue, and thats just wrong. thats his job as mayor, and if he cant live up to that, he cant live up to the job of governor. i like honest and open candidates that respect the people, unlike this guy who obviously has at least some contempt for the average citizen by dodging this VERY serious issue.

i blogrolled your site as well. thought i did the other night when i posted this, but i didnt see the link, so i guess i neglected to do so! i added it now tho.

good luck with all that youre doing for blackwell- i plan on learning more about him and passing the word on to friends in ohio.

People need to consider caerfully who they want for Governor of Ohio. The new Governor of Ohio will either be a friend or foe in the presidential election 2008. All eyes will be on Ohio.
