"God, you're hot" school board member Keith Ervin not removed from school board. (www.youtube.com)

Half the school board thinks Keith deserves a third chance (that's right, not his first time making inappropriate comments to a child).

They say only he can decide if he wants to step down. They did vote in favor of censuring him. The rest of the school board members that laughed during the comment and touching of a child faced no repercussion. Some even pretended to be offended during the emergency hearing.

No it's okay everyone, because that one school board guy is going to pray about it, and that'll fix everything! /s

What a fucking joke. This is the third time the guy has done this. He, and the entire board, should be fired.

Oh weird, so strange and not usual at all that the ones not calling for his resignation invoke Christian values and Jeebus (and literally comparing him to the pedo in chief). Unfortunately with world events being what they are I'm sure this'll be forgotten within a day or two. Apparently we can only wait for this guy's name to pop up in the paper in a few years for having raped a bunch of pre teens.

There's a petition you can sign to remove him. I saw it yesterday.

Not removed huh. Does he get a date with the kid then instead? That'll be an awkward conversation picking the girl up from the parents house. Who takes care of the baby the little girl-mother has, a little girl cant be legal guardian right, so is it split custody between the girls parents and the school board member?

I'm just working out logistics here, not passing any judgement on the all knowing, evidently self-regulating school board who are clearly above following any laws.
