Not a Greenie. Not a West ender. Don't own a rent house in Beaumont. Can't make money doing that. Own 10 acres and pay more taxes than you. Man, I got both of you riled up over things that will happen. You will see.

Funny things at play here.  You assume that you know how much I pay in city tax (by stating that you pay more taxes than myself and Jag Insider) .  

Also, I do believe you have close ties to Beaumont as you pay taxes here.  Seemed to me that you got pretty ruffled at the comments about Central and seem invested with South Park.  

But whatever.  

The entire situation will be handled accordingly with or without your consent...

Not ruffled at all. Stating some facts about BISD gets people all stirred up. Maybe I don't pay more taxes than you, but you made quite a few assumptions about me too. Your consent will have nothing to do with the outcome either.

Can somebody answer me this?  Why was Ozen opened in the first place?

It didn't seem to make sense only 12 years after BISD consolidated four high schools (French, Beaumont-Charlton-Pollard, West Brook and South Park) into 2 (Central and West Brook) to open a new high school.  What was the impetus behind that as it sure didn't make fiscal sense.

Good question...

When West Orange Cove and Stark High combined to become WOS in 1977 the kids got to vote on school colors and mascot. It was not a popular decision at the time, but it was the right decision for the school district.  I was a West Orange Chief and I have a lot of friends who were Stark Tigers, Now we all sit together at WOS games.

Wishing? Just a fact of life. Yes, they will move their players to other towns. I also forgot that Beaumont students can attend the achool of their choice so there has already been some jockeying for positions. I couldn't care less where they go. I don't live in Nederland. I pay Beaumont taxes.

I could care less/ I couldn't care

(thank me later *wink)*

I've had several close relatives that's walked through those halls, the Middle School, that is.  I would know.  The people still holding on to the high school days and made a big stink about its demolition didn't even have kids or relatives there and just wanted the old eyesore to remain, only because of nostalgia purposes...  

Central has been in poor condition for at least 20 years.  I assume that Harvey only made things worse as Harvey couldn't have made things better...

Thank you!

    • I think you’re missing my point- I also believe the prosecution is a mistake, but that’s not the point.    I’m confused that Conservative Christian Right-wing Republican straight white American male family first Trump voters are ignoring the fact that Trump did, in fact, do that awful thing…. But are instead focused on the fact that he’s being accused of covering it up.    There’s obviously no decency or morality in MAGA. But they still believe themselves to be exactly that… the side of decency and morality. It would be funny if the stakes weren’t so high. 
    • Naw people are mad the good ole boy system is getting broken. Didn’t think it would be this fast for the drama to be here. Honeymoon is over. 
    • Here’s the thing. I keep dropping facts on you, and you keep on knee-jerk saying “all lies!” I’ve asked you multiple times to point out whatever I’ve said that is factually wrong…but you can’t.  You might not like the facts, and they might make your eyes sweat a little… but it doesn’t change the fact that they are as true. Heck, deep down inside you might even know that Ol’ CB is right, but you believe Trump isn’t to blame. That, sir, does not turn the truth into a lie. What you should have said was is “that may be true, but I’m giving Trump a pass because…” Not “that’s a lie” when the numbers don’t lie.    But for you and everyone that  believes Trump was good for the economy, I’ll give another of my beloved and informative analogies that might help you finally understand.    A man handles his Family’s finances.  He makes a decision that life could be better, so he’s like “this is our year!” He stops all contributions to retirement accounts (cuts taxes) then proceeds to book a trip to Disney, buys nice things for the family and maxes out all possible lines of credit…. Now they’re facing bankruptcy.  The kids (y’all) are now arguing “things were so much better when  Dad (Trump, also your Daddy) was in charge! We had nice things!” The man set us on a course for ruin with deficit spending, then it accelerated with COVID, then he was such a pig that Biden got elected, and now we’re facing another “anybody but Trump” loss in the November, guaranteeing four more years of nonsense from which we’ll probably never recover. The debt is just insurmountable. We shouldn’t be surprised, either.  Trump has always been a “borrow as much as we can and pray (errrr, hope….not pray. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t do a lot of that) that it all works out” as evidenced by his businesses which have repeatedly bankrupted.
