You would have the Fairfax Couty BoS annoit themselves a court of law and deny zoning applications based on prior bad behavior of pror students attending school at a given geographic location? There would be no need for a trial and an entire group of people could be punished for the actions of a few individuals formerly associated with the group. Zoning is no longer zoning. It is a pseudo-criminal procedure applied retroactively to those who now occupy a place formerly occupied by criminals. By this logic, the Univerity of Virginia should be shut down because of the widespread pot smoking that occured on that campus in the 1970s. I am sympathetic to your goal of preventing people from teaching anti-American hatred to children - especially in America! Revoke the tax exempt status by (correctly) claiming that the school isn't really a school. If there is criminal activity ongoing in the facility then the police and prosecutors' office should be investigating. Put the criminals in jail. But the misdirected and overly emotional screed against the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors is pretty ridiculous. If there are real zoning issues then deny the application. But asking the BoS to use zoning as a way to enforce unprosecuted criminal law and maintain cultural norms? I thought you "conservatives" opposed government agencies over-stepping their lawful boundaries. Or are your "core conservative values" only applicable when it's convienient?

One incident that sticks out specifically; my children and I were driving past the school and several little boys who appeared to be 3rd or 4th grade age were standing along the fence. We waived at them (I'm from a small town and can't seem to stop participating in small town traditions such as waiving at strangers!) and our friendly gestures were returned by the boys with "the bird". I was shocked and couldn't believe that such small children would behave that way. I wondered at the time if this and other similar incidents were reflective of the decline in basic respect that many young people have today, or if it was indicative of the culture and teachings of ISA. I'm not sure, but I am sure that expansion is a bad idea and I'm hopeful that Fairfax County has enough sense to realize before it's too late.
