Until yesterday, I was blissfully unaware that this student walkout at the Allentown School District would last a week, perhaps even longer. That vow was made United Youth Party's Frassetto, on a Facebook video."It does not work if you do it just one day," he explained. "We're going to do it all week long." That presents a lot of questions that I had hoped to avoid asking. So I asked them to Falsetto, who uses Nate Whip's black limo instead of a flute to lure the children away.
 |
| Nathan Markham, alias Nate Whips |
Second, why is Falsetto using a convicted criminal like Nathan Markham, who calls himself Nate Whips, as one of his organizers? This fellow has page after page of arrests. As recently as February, he was charged with corrupting the morals of a minor after he was caught drinking with a 17 year-old girl. He had her drive for him because his own license is suspended. I wonder how many 17 year-old girls he picked up in his limo on Monday?
Nate Whips, who ironically is a car salesman, was charged with carjacking last November when he jumped into a stranger's car in an effort to elude police.
Last night, I had an exchange with Falsetto. He denies marginal students will suffer, and instead claims they will be empowered. He defended Markham, saying he has turned his life around. He denies getting any help from Charter schools or Abe Atiyeh, but did admit to getting funding in the past from Allentown.
The exchange is below.
I believe the notion of a walk out for an entire week can be very destructive to the academic career of many marginal students. If you care about these kids, you really should end this exercise. If unwilling to do that, you should only ask for volunteers from A and B students.
Frassetto: We will never segregate students from ANB students to CD and F students. The ones we want to reach the most are the ones that need the most help. We will continue to do this work because it is the just work. It is the first time in our city's history where over 1000 students gathered together today so they can be heard and so that they can make a statement and tell the leadership of the Allentown school District that they must listen to the students from now on.
That's not segregation. Any educator knows that some children have greater needs than others. Over the course of a week, you are probably going to cause several kids to flunk out. This is sad to hear. Also, If you care about the children, why are you exposing them to criminals like Nate Whip (Nathan Markham)? Do you honestly think that helps them, or that he helps your cause by telling easily recognized lies? Finally, what is your finding source? It appears that students from four different charter schools were on hand to help today. Who is giving you the dough for the grenades you've been throwing? Abe Atiyeh? Isn't your group the beneficiary of City grants? Is the City of Allentown funding this indirectly?
Frassetto: No one will flunk out? 5 days? 5 days of exercising their first amendment right to peaceably assemble - if schools suspend them or flunk them - that's Joe we all know they don't care for any of the students and our population.
Nate turned his life around and is supporting kids and the community -
We are the United Youth - we got our own funding from our previous events
Can you donate to this common cause of students working together to improve their own education and life?
1) I believe the ACLU has already made clear that the First Amendment does not give the children any right to skip class. So that argument is bullshit.
2) No one will flunk out? That's quite a different prediction than saying no one will get arrested. You are hurting the kids who need to be in school and who need the help a classroom provides, not some march down the street to listen to someone rant on. There are students who will flunk out if they take a week off. I guess your answer is You Don't Care. Is this because the ASD refused to hire you? You are hurting marginal students. As a teacher, you know this. They need someone who cares for them and who will go to any extent to protect them and look out for them
3) Nate turned his life around? Are you kidding me? Did you see his rap sheet? As recently as November? You are exposing children to that kid of adult? What does that say about your own judgment?
4) I know you get funding from events like Stellar, but did Abe Atiyeh give you money? Did Allentown give you money? Are you even registered as a nonprofit or charitable organization?
Frassetto: Bottom line is that he cares and supports the odd so they don't have to go through what he went through
He is supporting the kids more than you right now.
No funding from atiyeh ... But good idea
Actually, wanting marginal children to receive a decent education is supporting the children. A man who tells outright lies is not supporting the children. Nor are you. Unfortunately, you are a demagogue who is using these poor kids as pawns. and don't care that some will flunk out.
It is nice to know Abe Atiyeh has not sponsored this sad exercise. But you do get funding from Allentown, don't you?
Frassetto: ? Damn man you just don't know me - for you to judge me like that and you never met me or know anything about me tells me a lot about the type of judge mental guy you are.
I am very serious, sir. You are consorting with known criminals and using four charter schools to convince marginal students to walk out of their classes for a week. It makes no difference to you that some of these children will flunk out and may just drop out, like 40% of the student body. You are, I believe, city supported. Your web page appears to be promoted by the City. I have seen your indoctrination classes. You do appear to be a demagogue with a personal agenda. It certainly is not the children, as evidenced by your refusal to recognize that every child is different.
Frassetto: They won't... They will feel empowered
Personal agenda???? Now I know you don't know me... Go ask the 1000 students I taught in the last 6 years - ask them to get to know me
Every child is different... Sir ? We only have time for positive energy when doing positive work like this - but thank you for your concerns
I have heard you are a good teacher and therefore have not challenged you on that basis. I also understand the need to make a statement. But I question how good a teacher you really are if you allow marginal students to participate in this walkout. You have to know this will hurt them. I also believe you have an anti-Mayo agenda that is clearly personal. Did he refuse to hire you? You did not answer my question about funding from the City of Allentown. Do you get funded by Allentown?
Frassetto: No he refused to have a meeting with students... The first time I encountered him was three weeks ago at werts cafe
The city gave us funding in the past but I don't think anymore.

I love the fact that his main supporter is one charge away from being a sex offender. "Nate's Whips" should be in jail for the transportation of minors without a license. Lock this guy for a awhile, he has zero regard for the law!!!
May the entire snake pit of Allentown collapse into a big sinkhole. The entire city makes JD and LuLu Hogg look like saints.
Did we ever think we would actually long for Mark Mendelson's return?????????
When Mendelson came to rise in A-town, wasn't Ed Palumpa-lump head of A-town's Economic Development?
I would like to know where Mr. Whip's, a "licensed" PA car salesperson, without a valid driver's license, gets his automobiles from: Maserati, limos, Mercedes, Infinitis, etcetra, and et.al. His job must pay well? Seems like he got his education's worth.
And I wouldn't allow any of my children to be taught by a young punk like Mr. Falsetto. I wonder how many of the walk-outs signed up and stayed to be taught by the college professors? Wonder who the college professors were? Wonder which institutions of higher learning these college professors came from? Would any self-respecting college professor every be associated with must madness? They must be card-carrying members of that pinko organization the ACLU.
Hey Bernie, through with picking on women? Now you are picking on defenseless children? Big man you are!
Have all associated volunteers received their clearances from the state for contacts with youth?
http://www.keepkidssafe.pa.gov/clearances/index.htm
There is a similarity here that resembles techniques used to establish urban gangs. Gather together young impressionable kids, tell them what's holding them back is a mean system filled with prejudiced adults.
Engage the new 'recruits' with seemingly hip and powerful adult males, something missing in many homes. Show false symbols of success. Give them 'things,'promise to 'protect' them. Unify them around a common look or color, etc.
I'm afraid this type of organizing is growing in America. Our culture is fragmented. Each piece banding together to make demands upon another. A total rejection of compliance to standards, personal accountability, and responsible behavior. If you want something, just demand it, then take it. Rules are for chumps.
Fred Windish
Stop hatin on ma boy Nate. You couldn't carry his jock strap.
Obviously you couldn't carry a textbook so that you might learn how to spell simple words, such as "my", for example, correctly.
No word yet on this matter from School Board candidate Mark Smith. Complete radio silence.
And, in other news, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
P.S. Is that The Blog Mentor (a.k.a. FiFi the Attack Poodle) up there @5:31?
Jeffrey Anthony
Nathan A. Markham on his Nate Whips facebook page today describes how he hasn't had more than 3 hours sleep a night in the last week. That is the guy they have driving around tens of school students.
His facebook pages are full of cars that he sells to the public. I wonder if he has a State license as a vehicle salesman.
If Mr. Frassetto continues to urge students to walk out, I believe he will be severely endangering his teaching certification in Pennsylvania. There is a disciplinary process that can be used to revoke that certification.
Where's CeCe today? She's a lot of talk. How can a student skip school and then ever think he or she will find academic success at a worthwhile college?
This shit is really stupid. If I found out my son was skipping school and getting into "Whips" limo, my kid would grounded and "Whips" and I would have some words.
Bernie,
Only around 5% of our senior high and middle school students walked out. 95% chose not to. Of those who participated over half refused to take part in the "alternative " classes offered by the protest organizers.
Scott Armstrong
@Scott, correct as I saw roughly half of them walking around town yesterday. ***resumes eating popcorn***
What's happening with all the leftover "Free Breakfast & Lunch" food? Is it being thrown away or given out to the homeless?
Is this a one sided race? White kids want Mayo and the Latino's want summer jobs?
@8:14
Bang, Scott! Two sentences and you've exposed this whole stunt for the huckster-driven nonsense that it is. Good for you. And it's not something you'd ever see Ce-Ce or (Mark) Smith do -- or be able to do.
This is a specific instance of something I've believed in general for a long time: You don't have to argue over a leftist's beliefs; you've just got to present data, and his argument evaporates.
Again, good for you!
Jeffrey Anthony
Thank you for doing this interview, Bernie. A lot more informative than what we read elsewhere.

Terrific interview.
God forbid that even one kid who left school property was injured during this stunt.
Doesn't this teacher report to Jose Rosado? Know where I'm going with this?
VOR
Can someone explain to me how students can just walk out of their school buildings?
From a security standpoint, and as a parent, that’s scary. I would have hoped that the ASD would require a note from a parent granting permission for their child to leave the school.
If that's not happening, it might explain some of ASD's other problems. Maybe this is something that the ASD needs to work on.
To blame everything on the school district is the easy way out. A high drop out rate, flagging standardized test skills, absenteeism, lack of respect for basic rules, that crap starts at home. Any attempt to "fix things" without placing some of the blame where it belongs is misguided and delusional.
We are reaping the reward of forty years of poor parenting, plus an increasingly liberal attitude toward just about everything.
I'd be willing to bet that some Allen and Dieruff HS students derive a decent education at their schools and that despite what this punk teacher says, learning does take place in these places. The fact is that for some kids, there will be no learning because they are damaged goods to begin with. Making excuses for them is bad business and just insures future failure as the "kids" become victims.
VOR
I did allow my son to walkout yesterday, and I was also there with him, I do support them to be heard and what they need for their own education and for new textbooks and materials, etc. But it was very completely unorganized, and just think that students walkouted just
to walkout. As for the way he gets his findings and who he has around our children are just not cool, we as parents should really not have our children to believe in alot of the hype that he talks. Yes we as parents do need to be heard from the board, and all together come up with a solution, bit until then, my child will keep his behind in school. Will go another route to make things happen, for his education.
where are the parents during all this
Now if Bernie could score an interview with Nate whips that would be awesome 484-387-4251
Mendelson was here long before Fed Ed.
Some kids are engaged in some political action and you people are freaking out.
Yawn....
Drive the young curs right out of the ASD.......West into Parkland.
How dare young people,some with a less than complete grasp of the issues, engage in political activities in Allentown?
Clearly they haven't been paying attention.
Scold them, BOH, get them back on track.
That's rude
"where were the parents all this time"
Yawn.
9:28 the parents of most of these kids could care less. They are the ones who do not encourage academic achievement. When their kids fail due to their neglect, they blame it on the system. Education begins at home.
There are many fine, dedicated teachers in the ASD. They try to teach despite less than adequate facilities and resources, large class sizes, and underachieving students. This charlatan's attack on the "system" is an affront to their efforts as REAL educators. Falsetto is a fraud who was spurned by the ASD. So now he becomes a pathetic cause celebrity to compensate for his own shortcomings as a professional educator. The REAL teachers in the ASD should look with disgust at this charlatan's efforts to disrupt their classrooms.
Lock them in and call in extra security.
Such outbreaks of political engagement, correct,
incorrect or other must NOT BE TOLERATED!
THIS IS ALLENTOWN GOD DAMN IT!!!
Scott Armstrong said:
"Want to know where the money comes from, scroll down to the bottom of the United Youth Home page. Notice Allentown PA.GOV is a sponsor."
So let me make that clearer for everybody.
United Youth is the group organizing the walkout. AllentownPA.gov is the official city webpage.
So it would seem that Ed Pawlowski is using our tax dollars to further his political agenda in the Allentown School District.
I think it's quite clever that Frassetto had students stay outside today. That way they could exert peer pressure on students who intend to go to class. It would also keep students away from presumably responsible adult who could explain more clearly and honestly to these kids what the real consequences of their actions are. I do not hold the kids responsible. I do hold Frassetto responsible. If this continues into a third or fourth day, he really should be arrested.
"So it would seem that Ed Pawlowski is using our tax dollars to further his political agenda in the Allentown School District."
The City is hosting the web page for this group and has made contributions to them. But Pawlowski has not chimed in on this or many issues in recent weeks. The leaderless city council is MIA as usual. The school board is also strangely quiet, except for Scott Armstrong. Allentown has a leadership deficit.
If he is feeding and providing bottled drinks to 700 people a day at an average of $6 day, and he intends to keep doing that for 5 days, that is $21,000. That is not pocket change. Someone is bankrolling this.
As a starting point, I believe the City immediately should cut all ties to the "United Youth Party," including kicking them off the City website. This group used to do some good work, and could have easily made their point at rallies after school.
"Some kids are engaged in some political action and you people are freaking out."
This comes from the Blog Mentor. He supports the walkout bc the school district did not hire his wife as an arts teacher. On Facebook, she writes, "I support any acts of civil disobedience in protest of the Allentown School District's 4 years of cuts to teachers/ essential related arts programs, poor leadership, and mismanagement of funds. This is long overdue. The board and administration have failed to protect the educational rights of the students they serve."
I see. Any acts of civil disobedience? That would include murder, acts of terror, etc. A foolish person.
It seems like the ASD made the right call when they passed her over.
Sold me a damn lemon car to
Highly doubt it he be selling lemons
"We are reaping the reward of forty years of poor parenting, plus an increasingly liberal attitude toward just about everything. "
I assume that by liberal, you mean excessively tolerant. I would not throw ideological terms into this debate. One could just as easily say, "We are reaping the reward of forty years of poor parenting, plus an increasingly laissez-faire attitude toward just about everything."
VOR, I suspect I know where you're going. I believe Frassetto needs to be charged with corrupting the morals of a minor. His poor judgment in allowing an obvious criminal thug like Nate Whips around is a basis for his termination.
Bernie, I couldn't agree with you more. He should be arrested for inciting truancy. He is also trying to intimidate good students with peer pressure. He is filth. It is about time the Medical Arts Charter School takes a good hard look at his job performance. He may be in violation of his contract and could be dismissed for breach of same. Shouldn't their teacher's contracts be a matter of public record? Perhaps something for you to review to see if this Falsetto nitwit is violating that condition of employment.
Take away the student demonstrators cell phones for a day. They will soon be rolling on the ground and frothing at the mouth due to texting and social media withdrawal.
Speaking of carjacking, why are the Sheriff's dept allowed to do it, but not Nate?
Holy toledo, does a badge make it different, or is it the crony colluding bootlickers that will risk a 10 year jail sentence to get a tic tac shoved up their asses?
I don't believe teacher contracts are or should be a matter of public record. A collective bargaining agreement, yes. But not an individual contract.
https://www.facebook.com/100009450790091/videos/1497008643957481/
Video by Nathan Markham. Promises ride in his limo to kids who skip school. Talks about $20 million that is "missing" from ASD. What????? Says Superintendent Mayo spent $100K on a home theater system in his house. Slander????
I don't know for sure, but I think charter schools are more likely to hire teachers for a year at a time. That means they can easily decide to not hire a teacher back for the next year.

Mezzacappa, As you were told yesterday, you need to focus on getting together the money to pay the judgment you owe me. You are entitled to a setoff for your car, but that is a drop in the bucket against what you owe. I need to see some serious cash. Every second you delay just increases the amount you owe. If you are unable to gather the cash, you need to hand over the deed. As things stand, we will be getting a break and enter order soon, at which everything you have will be taken away and stored. That includes whatever car you are driving now. Then we will get an order voiding the fraudulent conveyance to your mother, together with punitive damages and attorney fees against her for her role in assisting you in avoiding this judgment. And we will take your house. If you want this case to be over, pay up. If you need time to find a place to live, I can be agreeable now but will not be agreeable next year when we get the order.
This is the only OT rant I will allow from you. Now go away.
"I don't believe teacher contracts are or should be a matter of public record. A collective bargaining agreement, yes. But not an individual contract"
Each teacher works for me and my fellow taxpayers. Transparency demands their compensation details be public. Nobody is forcing them to work for an entity that makes these details transparently public. If one desires that privacy, they are free to work for another employer. You've often posted salaries of public employees (usually one's you're criticizing). Nonetheless, the alternative is secrecy and that's bad government.
https://www.facebook.com/100009450790091/videos/vb.100009450790091/1495773770747635/?type=2&theater
One of the major organizers of the protest falsely claims that "$20 MILLION is missing" from the Allentown School District.
" You don't have to argue over a leftist's beliefs; you've just got to present data, and his argument evaporates."
This is not a left v. right issue. This is an argument over education. I can't think of many people, on the left or right, who would support their children in walking out of classes for an entire week to make unreasonable demands that would be illegal to grant.
The real question is where is the leadership. I might agree with Scott Armstrong about 10% of the time, but he is the only school board candidate exhibiting true leadership. The rest of them are too busy seeing which way the wind is blowing.
11:23, I agree that compensation details are and should be a matter of public record, but noit individual contracts or files. Public employees do not lose all rights of privacy.
Nate Whips/Nathan Markham on Facebook: "U got the school superiors using school funds to have school staff build hundred Thoudand dollar home theaters in their homes and 20 Million dollar school accounts missing while some families are struggling to buy uniforms and students are given ran down books and computers."
7:48, I have private messaged Gerlach on this issue. If she wants to be a leader, she needs to lead. I will private message other candidates as well.
"Nathan A. Markham on his Nate Whips facebook page today describes how he hasn't had more than 3 hours sleep a night in the last week. That is the guy they have driving around tens of school students."
I'm not sure he has a driver's license.
Just reading threw these comments makes me so upset instead of going back and forth about this guy and this "movement" he suppose to be helping our kids with talk to your child if they are in any of the high schools. Education is the key to life and if these kids keep missing school that's s bigger problem for the parents. I know I will be at that school to get my niece from walking out today because instead of protesting she was at her boyfriend house yesterday. 1,000 students missed school can they be accountable for each and every one of them. They should be ashamed to encourage this nonsense. People remember no one takes a fool serious except bigger fools
So I've been banned by Mark Smith's campaign page for asking him the specifics of his platform as a candidate for School Board and specifically on the walkout. He defines that as "a lack of social skills."
No problem there, it's his site to do with as he likes.
The problem is that he removed my comments, making it impossible for readers to make up their own minds about me -- *and* about him.
That just feels like dirty pool, doesn't it?
Would anyone interested ask him on his campaign page to restore my comments?
I'll be very appreciative if you would, and I think it would shine a light on where candidate (Mark) Smith stands.
Jeffrey Anthony
@11:29,
Judging by Mr. Markham's rant, he obviously isn't a product of proper education.
Just wait, these "protesters" will get out of hand and start breaking things. Then, let's see who accepts that behavior.
Who is taking responsibility for these minors who are leaving school and then walking to Allentown? Is it the United Youth Party? Is it the ASD?
What happens if there is an accident during one of these demonstrations and somebody gets hurt? Is the ASD liable for letting them walk out or is it the UYP for organizing it?
@11:26
You're right, of course, Bernie.
I was unclear.
My (poorly made) point was that the supporters of this walkout are of the left -- or at least using terminology often employed by the left -- and it's *their* arguments I was talking about evaporating.
But, again, you're right. I don't think good parents of the left would want their kids walking out of school either.
Jeffrey Anthony
You take that risk on any Facebook page. I have been blocked and have blocked others. I have contacted Smith privately, but more to insist that he take a firm stand on supporting or denouncing the walkout. The statement he posted is very equivocal.
Have to acknowledge 10:15 AM's post. Highly doubtful this action would be the choice of 99% of Allentown School District teachers. Legitimate teachers would manage their students, make their points known, in a more professional manner. Also, it IS true, some of the Lehigh Valley's most versatile and skilled teachers can be found in the ASD. Those folks face many difficult situations teachers in other districts would run from screaming.
If nothing else, the behavior of this CHARTER SCHOOL staff member will bring attention to how such schools actually operate. Are these employees held to the same standards as traditional teachers? Do they have PSEA protection? Gain tenure?
Does anyone have the answers?
Yes its that's easy. As someone who attended Allen a few years ago it's that easy to walk out. Which is one reason I blame on my self.
Bernie, I can see your point about not making individual teacher's contracts public. However, there must be a boiler-plate contract they use that SHOULD be made public. Especially charter schools where standards may not be as high. I would imagine that even standard teacher contract language must comply with state law and PA. Dept. of Education policies. Can't you obtain some of those documents? Maybe with the help of a state rep or senator's office?
@12:07
So by your reasoning, does it tell us something about traditional schools and the PSEA when a teacher in a traditional school behaves improperly? Or do you believe it only works one way -- only against Charter Schools?
Nate is a bum.. you can google his mugshot & rapsheet. He also burning bitches . He just came home recently. He was locked up for 90 days for violating p.o . The man has herpes. If you go to my friends page she has an audio of him saying he sorry for passing herpes to her . He thought ppl couldn't catch it if he takes his meds. He is dirty . He sell beat up cars that don't really work . He is lame
Frassetto: "We are the United Youth - we got our own funding from our previous events."
How many previous events were there, since this entity has only been in existence for 4 months; with Frassetto's Breinigsville home reported as its address?
Proof nate whips shouldn't be around ppl who's under age and a criminal http://www.mcall.com/news/breaking/mc-c-allentown-carjacking-police-chase-20141121-story.html
"However, there must be a boiler-plate contract they use that SHOULD be made public."
Collective bargaining agreements are, as i stated, public. I imagine that portions of an individual contract at a Charter School might be subject to a RTK, but would need to research it.
12:21, Please make your point without being vulgar.
Would u want a man like this around your kids http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/bethlehem/index.ssf/2015/02/bethlehem_man_drinks_with_17-y.html
"since this entity has only been in existence for 4 months"
That is inaccurate. It has been in existence several years.
How they going 2 lie and say he's trying to change his life around when he just got out of jail like 2 months ago smh
He's so disgusting hes just going to corrupt these young girls minds and sleep with them like the predator he is and infect them..
I looked at Nate Whips profile on FB and it's just him standing behind his car showing off at the protest. I dont know if he has a license, but dont let your children in his car..The're also vids of him making accusations of stolen money, w/o any proof. Their is proof of his rap sheet however. That being said most students looked beyond the B.S and didnt walk out...Hell most of the kids left the protest out of sheer boredom.
It is extremely irreposnsible to allow him to be anywhere near the children.
I just drove by the protest at the MLK statue and the kids are soliciting "donations for education".
More like donations for the mobs lunch.
��
Am a parent . I do care about my kids. I told my daughter she better not go. But she did just cause her friends did. I don't understand how the school didn't stop her. There is security guards there should have been no way she came out of the school. But I found out. And yes I went right over to get her butt and took her right back to school. So many kids were there just to skip class. It was very stupid.
Everybody worrying about Nate Whip but not the bigger picture here. I feel like ASD needs to make more changes when it comes to learning. I disagree about how they handling the whole situation but it seems like that's the only way the students can be heard. I just pray things don't get out of hands.
The vision isnt clear at all..Seems like most are just blindly following, just to leave school. In regards to Nate, Im guessing most parents are just worried about having a offender around their kids. Rightfully so, I mean if you put yourself out there, you gotta expect people to call you out.
"I agree that compensation details are and should be a matter of public record, but noit individual contracts or files. Public employees do not lose all rights of privacy."
Individual teacher compensation information has been widely available for years. There are sites on which individuals' salaries are searchable. The republic hasn't fallen and teachers' salaries have increased steadily since the existence of said sites. All public spending should be detailed to the penny. It's the kind of transparency that prevents things like Allentown from happening. Readers can determine individual teacher salaries at this site: http://paschoolperformance.org/
Bernie - Your blog is providing a new valuable public service by warning people about who is spreading herpes.
Here's the State rules for requirements for criminal background clearances for volunteers having contact with children:

Now, get back in the limo, girls.

http://www.mcall.com/news/breaking/mc-c-allentown-carjacking-police-chase-20141121-story.html
Markham is now putting up facebook posts saying that he has been clean for a decade, and that in his most recent arrest, the girl was drunk before she got into his car. The news article says there is just a little bit more about that story.
It is irresponsible if not downright criminal to allow him near children. This explains why Frassetto declined to name him when confronted by Tge Mirning Call.
FINALLY we get ONE person to take a stand for the students and everyone wants to bash him. The ASD has been at the bottom of the education pole for years now. Take a look at their PSSA and Keystone exam results. If the ASD really cared about student education, why are the scores STILL at an all Time low? Whoever is against this movement, then you're part of the problem!!! These children will not flunk for missing 5 days of under education. I know for a FACT. I was once an ASD resident. My child failed the school year in several subjects, didn't attend summer school, and they decided to advance my child to the next grade level anyways. How's that for caring about education???.( do not judge the reason of failure in the first place if you don't know the story). So if a student flunks due to these 5 days then it's only out of spite from the ASD. I will bet that more than half of you commenting against this movement don't even have children attending the ASD. WHY? because you know their education system sucks!!!!. I agree 100% with Mr. Frasetto's movement. however, I don't agree with the way he's going about it. Walking out of classes isn't helping their education but neither are the people being negative about it without taking a positive stand for it either!!
A person who encourages a criminal thug who is currently being prosecuted for corrupting the morals of a minor, is no supporter of the children or education. He is using the kids.
The State stats show that the Medical Arts Charter School is showing much worse educational results than Allen or Dieruff.
We should be encouraging the students at Frassetto's school to quit, because the teachers and administrators at that school obviously don't care about them, and are allowing them to fail.
Then, after Atiyeh has to shut down that charter school, ASD can re-direct the millions of dollars that they have to pay to that charter school. ASD can use that money to hire back the teachers who had to be laid off during past state budget cuts. See, Frassetto can get exactly what he wants. Then, Dr. Mayo can feel it is now time to agree to retire and go back to his imaginary home theater system.
Great points, 2:11!! Let's have an audit of the charter school that is a safe harbor for that egotistical ingrate Frassetto. After we see what a sham that school is, shut it down and return critical public funds to the other schools that really are trying to teach kids something. Net result will be Falsetto on the streets where he belongs.
12:52 I feel your pain. You seem like a decent parent who wants her daughter to take school seriously. But she is influenced by the mob and their social media attacks. Most of those kids were just looking for an excuse to skip school.
If a private donor funds after-school make-up classes to cover the days that protesting students missed, will the students attend? Same question for SAT prep classes.
One would expect very strong attendance from students who walked out to demand more and better education.
Them kids need to stay in school not walk down Hamilton street or ride in a limo with this guy! They want better education stay in school

Indeed. That was last Sunday's Gospel reading, also. Prescient.
You sound ridiculous! Carry his jock-strap? Way to support his influence on these kids, that's sarcasm if you didn't catch "ma" drift.
I asked a group of kids what they were protesting for today.. One said, "I wanna betta education!" Another said, "The food at Allen sucks" and the best one yet was, "i dont know, w/e the people are shouting on the bullhorn"
Great job uniting kids for such a worthy cause..These kids need to be in school as it is counter productive to do this during school hours..Why not protest after school and see how many of those kids show up..I'd say 10%.
Bernie,
Update, The number of students who walked out today was way down from yesterday, around 70% less.
Scott Armstrong
I'm disappointed that grass roots rock star Ce Ce Gerlach is not telling these obviously misguided children that the best place for them is in the classroom.
Gerlach's continued silence speaks volumes.
Utter dearth of genuine leadership, save the "brash" Scott Armstrong, is one thousand percent correct.
Not surprised that no one from the political party that rules Allentown with an iron fist has called out Nate Whips for being the habitual criminal thug that he clearly is. Because this is the same political party that gave me Mayor Ed Pawlowski, of course. I'm sure there is an ingenious plan to pin this whole sordid mess on Miked Fleck.
City Without Limits could not be any more accurate.
I have contacted all school board candidates and will report on their positions at midnight.
If you can't post without being vulgar, don't post.
Doesn't the ASD open themselves up to lawsuits if one of those children get hurt, while they should have been in school? Shouldn't the ASD security have done a better job of not letting those children out of school? They are supposed to be at school and they are not. They just walked out. And the school district let them walk out without putting up any interference? How is that protecting these children? The school district has a responsibility to protect and keep these children safe, when their parents believe their children are at school. Do the parents or parental guardians have to keep a watch on their children even when their children are at (under the care of the) school?
Smh Everybodies So God Damn Nosey
All This For What?If you're a good strong parent Like,myself and gave great communication with your kid you wouldn't b worried...I'm not I have a 14 year old n I'm not worried about any strong influence the outside world.. Everybody commenting doesn't really care ,let's be real you ppl are,just bored with nothing else to talk abour
Dynisha,
Are you here to stroke your own ego or to prove how bad the education system has failed you. I hope your child stays in school and isn't home schooled by you. I actually do care about the well being of my child who attends ASD, as all parents do. To speak all high and mighty just makes yourself look bad. Your ignorant to think your child isn't influenced by his/her peers. Good luck.
And since when is anybody perfect? Cus the bozo made a couple dumb mistakes hes a menace? I mean he obviously thinks he's doing a good deed,he's just dumb...who made a way for Allentown kids on this post? I'll wait! Nobody! I could care less..I take care of home and the children in it...since everybody's so pro Team Kids, donate to me cus I've got three...Exactly!
Charter school teachers are evaluated using the same process as public school teachers and have to meet the same criteria to earn Instructional II certification (recognized and issued by PDE). They cannot join the union. Tenure is up to the charter school.
Anyone else find it ironic that they walk OUT of school to a statue of MLK who marched and fought to get kids IN to school?
This guy "Nate Whips" as he likes to call himself is arrogant has control issues is very very violent and unpredictable i would be concerned if my kids were following him and his "movement" loose cannon ticking time bomb.
He's served seven years in a state prison in the hole at that. Did nothing but read and study n work out. He's a master manipulator.
Just saying con artist at its finest
You need a better education, them kids? It's those kids. I'm guessing you graduated from the ASD?
Whips is a useless thug whose only true future is an 8x8 cell.
The grammar and basic spelling skills on display here are downright disgraceful and I hold the forced-membership Teachers' Union responsible.
We have established it is not the kids' fault. We have established it is not the parents' fault. How could it be the School Administrators fault? The School Administrators are not the ones on the actual front lines "teaching" the kids and obviously not correcting the kids as the effectively butcher the English language all day long.
Fine, fire Mayo (you know, the guy with the $ 800,000 salary and taxpayer-funded pool at his house). The kids will still be dumber than dirt long after Mayo is canned "cuz" the politically-correct teachers just can be bothered to confront anybody about miserable grammar and spelling. The teachers are afraid to be labeled a Racist, no doubt.
No problem can ever be solved until that problem is actually acknowledged first. Test scores all across the country continue to just keep going down, down, down. Why?
It must be because our school teachers just flat out stink to high heaven.
Turnout today was abysmal. Kids are wising up not to follow this fool. Will only get into trouble for no reason. With rain forecast for the rest of the week, the only students Falsetto will be able to lure are the chronic truants who would skip school even if they were passing out free I Phones in the cafeteria.

Real Talk.
@6:44
You had me when you were talking about the forced-membership union (a favorite phrase of mine), but you lost me when you blamed teachers.
I've made the acquaintance of hundreds of teachers over the years, and I can't count more than two or three bums. It's amazing how the vast majority see what they do as a vocation rather than a job.
Especially in Allentown, teachers have it tough given the enormous number of delinquent parents.
You're entitled to your own opinion, of course, but please reconsider carefully before you blame teachers before parents.
Jeffrey Anthony
I get the whole idea of being upset the education system sucks in the city with out limits or laws. The parents who care as well as the tax payers have been upset for over 30 years. We get it.
This is a mess of a city, and the politicians and so called businessmen who have owned and operated this city for decades own this mess as a result of their pathetic policies, corp cronyism and other scams.
This is a mess of a school district. This is nothing new. This has been an issue since the late 1970's early 1980's. These kids want change? Tell them to inform their parents to stop voting, (if they even vote), for the same party of politicians who have owned and operated the city and the school board for decades.
They want hope and change? Quit voting for democrats and school board members who are beholden to the democrat party, fed ed and his minions. Any candidate or current member, who is on this school board, or running for a position, who accepted cash from fed ed or his minions should announce it and resign. They do not care about what is left of the tax payers in this city. Its all about diversity aka , sanctuary cities, the union leadership and the political hacks. It is not about your kids.
The school board , used to be the guardian of the tax payers cash. Now they literally receive cash from teachers union PACS and democrat mayor PACS, wink..and you know who you are. Most would consider this a major conflict of interest, but not here in the city loaded with waste fraud, corruption and a garbage school district. It is kind of like a judge being the recipient of a fund raiser given by local attorneys, state senators and police commissioners. Is it legal...Yes. Does it look bad, yes...do they care...no
Im not sure what is more disgusting:::
This, so called educator, who has been canned , I mean , not hired, wink wink, 2 times in the last 5 years.
His buddy whips , who is about one incident away from being deemed a child molester. This guy shouldn't be with in 1000 feet of a teenage girl or boy based on his record on file.
The police and school officials in the ASD for implementing, no real consequences for this behavior.
The place this fool is employed at, The Abe Atiyeh University/ Medical Charter school, in Catasauqua, who permits this type of anti social / criminal behavior.
The promises of free food and 10 bucks an hour to a 14-16 year old kid/male or female.
THIS IS WHAT MOST CALL GROOMING. LOOK IT UP AND APPLY IT TO GUYS LIKE WHIPS AND HIS ISSUES.
The city will be held accountable and the tax payers will be on the hook as soon as one of these so called kid protesters, gets injured, sexually assaulted or something else , when they were supposed to be in school and under the supervision and "care" of the school district and their teachers.
What happened to the rule/law of people having their state child abuse/ child sex abuse clearance before interacting with minors? does whips have his child line forms ? my guess, is no freaking way....
I WONDER WHAT THE MAYOR HAS TO SAY ABOUT THIS. AFTER ALL, THIS TYPE OF MOVEMENT IS VERY NEAR AND DEAR TO HIS CHICAGO , COMMUNITY ORGANIZING HEART.
Ed Pawlowski and his good buddy Governor Wolf, seem to be using our tax dollars to further their political agenda in the Allentown School District. Follow the money and expose the cash flow behind this waste of time and money. Come on Bernie, expose the cash flow behind this. That is part of the real crime involved here.
First of all he is not driving the limo the man in the picture is
Until teachers disassociate themselves entirely from their Democrat Party-controlled Union, I will have no other choice but to continue to blame teachers long before I blame parents.
Look at the spelling and grammar of the parents at places like The Morning Call, Facebook and this blog. The parents, just like their children, are dumber than dirt, too. Teachers, in stark contrast, are SUPPOSED to be educated and able to think critically.
For all their incessant propaganda about how much they "care", I think teachers are really only concerned their tenure and pension. I think this because the hacks continue to blindly follow their forced-membership Union and elect Democrats over and over and over again. Teachers have been and will continue to be content with the status quo --- this fact is evidenced by decades of past election results.
Back in my day, teachers got in your face. And you learned. Teachers don't get in anybody's face anymore --- way too scared of being physically beaten up and/or sued by some dummy's parent.
Teachers, just like the dummies they are failing to educate, consciously choose to point the finger at School Administrators and viciously kick the crap out of non-Democrats like Scott Armstrong each and every chance they get. I'm done with them. Under the bus these teachers go and there they stay there until they stop doing the things that got them tossed under the bus to begin with.
I won't hold my breath, the teachers' own track record has taught me very well.
Trash always gets torn threw with something being discovered I guess nate was one of those bags of dead rats and bats with a situation
Nate whips is an example as to why we need to address the whole situation.... He made some bad decisions in the past but then again one of the choices do you have when you're not learning nothing in school and the street is basically teaching you everything so maybe summer you guys need to stop talkingand look at it from another persons point of view which is the system is screwed up and he needs to be fixed
Yeah stay in school...... O sorry u problebly went to allentown public school.
@9:04
I agree with some of your sentiments -- forced-membership unions are bad and Scott Armstrong is a very good man and School Board member -- but I can't condone your painting all teachers with the same brush. Their memebrship in the union is involuntary, so any criticism on that basis is simply unfair.
And, again, educationally Allentown is a war zone. *Any* success represents herculean efforts on the part of teachers. A good teacher in Allentown would be a superior teacher in the suburbs.
Again, I don't mean to offend; I just wanted to present another point of view vis a vis our dedicated Education Professionals.
Best,
Jeffrey Anthony
Jeffery Anthony,
Don't you ever say anything remotely interesting,....
yawn
Truth be told it really wasn't that informative. I didn't learn one thing by reading this. It wasn't well written, it wasn't proofread and it was not impartial. If you want to write an article or do an interview and get information to the people/public you cant just argue your opinions and tell someone they're wrong for DOING something. Key word DOING. We all know what the results of NOT DOING anything does right, the ASD has NOT done anything for decades and we see what kind of a state the district is in at this time. His big talking point is 5 days out of school. Lets be serious, I've known of parents taking kids out of school for longer to go on vacation in the middle of the school year, kids miss school for longer when they are sick; now im not saying that missing school for whatever reason is or isn't ok but lets not act like these isolated 5 days are the singular reason the kids that flunk at the end of the year will be the sole reason the kids flunk. The truth of the matter is it IS the "SYSTEM". Now i dont know who or what the system is but we do know its something. It's been bad for way to long im not mad at children taking a stand for their education, its better than sitting in class daydreaming. Graduation rate rate is atrocious and this guy is crying about missing a few days of school as if simply being present is good enough when your not being engaged as a student, as if being present is good enough when your not being intellectually stimulated as an pupal. Cut it out. Who the fuck is funding nut as blog. foh
Yo this is just another hatin blog. You all hate on Nate cause you all just more angry old white men.
You guys are really sad man. Can't get it up. You are old and just missin your KKK.
Guess Nate just woke up! Time to hit the streets with his bitch wagon to move some dope.
11:09, Yeah, I'm funny that way about recently released criminal thugs being allowed near children. By the way, your leaders seem to have disappeared.
" Come on Bernie, expose the cash flow behind this. That is part of the real crime involved here."
OK. I'll wave my magic wand. What do you think i am doing here? And what exactly are you doing? I filed a RTK. If you have any useful suggestions, relay them.
Seems like people are more concerned with "Nate" than the children.. ASD has some serious financial issues. Follow the paper trail.
I've met several ASD students through the years that were not even allowed to bring their ancient books home to even attempt to study. How can one study this way?
They're are some troubling things happening within this district financial an otherwise. Maybe a walkout isn't the best solution but it's a start and maybe it will get the proper overseers involved to start weeding out the problems and people leading the children and the district to it's demise.
I have heard stories about those textbooks. To be sure, there are numerous problems. But that walkout was a terrible idea that was actually counterproductive.
Mr. Anthony,
Frankly, I'm sick and tired of teachers always getting some sort of free pass. Always some excuse about poverty, etc. Well, just exactly how DID Allentown become the Poverty Magnet, as Molovinsky would say?
If ASD teachers were football coaches, their teams would woefully suck so say the test scores, end of story. Yet the coaches will tell you it is all the fault of the players and that is only because the players are all just so destitute. That is, of course, when the coaches are not busy blaming their owners (school administrators) for not spending enough money on this program or that program, as if the owners have some endless supply of cash but they just won't share simply because they are too damn greedy.
Every teacher I know is furious that charter schools even exist and I, myself, am not in love with them at all, truth be told. Yet, the teachers I know also refuse to acknowledge that the only reason all these new charter schools now exist at all is because people got sick and tired the garbage they got from their public school. Again, I had always been under the impression that teachers were smart, could think and critically analyze.
The teachers' product sucks and their customers fled. Yet somehow the learned professionals just can't figure it all out. So they point the finger at everybody else but themselves.
Do I paint with incredibly wide brush strokes sometimes? No differently than Teachers' Union President Trotter or any other Democrat Party puppet you'd like to give me. I classify my artistry as impressionism.
Proof is in the pudding. Read the comments here and at other public forums. The basic grammar and spelling skills prevalent in society nowadays are utterly absurd. Someone is just plain NOT doing their job adequately enough, that is clearly evident.
The buck stops when and where?
Best as well,
9:04
First of all he is not driving the limo the man in the picture is
Yeah, because Whips never drives that limo
https://www.facebook.com/nathan.markham.12/videos/vb.100003726682844/623304331137117/?type=2&theater
He may not have driven this week because he knows eyes are on him. Plus he probably wanted to party with the young girls in the back.
Dude sells lemons
Don't you mean $6 per person per day? Because $6 per day x 5 days=$30.....nobody is feeding 700 people every day for a week on 30 bucks. U must be an ASD student/graduate. Were you ever taught to proofread????. More importantly...... Who is going to teach your children to do it?
Just look at the recent PSSA scores for Allentown as compared to the other Districts. That says it all. Let the ASD kids walk out, they are not performing anyway. Ohhh.
Im pretty sure the leader, Michael Frassetto is socially inept. He sounds like a scorned educator seeking revenge/validation in the wrong places. Acts like a cult leader if you are neutral or dont agree with his ideals. He acts like a man child and is just as mature as the kids he leads out the schools.
PSSA scores for ASD were atrocious to say the least..Something needs to change, but a walk out isnt going to work.
Real talk
Wow he has herpes somebody should report that!!! Ewwwwee
What about the students Mr Frassetto is supposed to be teaching. Is he in his classroom teaching? Sounds like grounds for having his teaching certificate be revoked, just so he can't get another teaching job after getting fired again.
I've seen some past studies that showed that ASD performs OK for students who actually stay in the district for many years. However, ASD is blamed for poor results from students who bounce in and out of the district constantly, or who are only there for a year. Many teachers have an almost completely different set of students at the end of the year than they had at the beginning of the year. Transiency is a big part of the problem. Many households bounce back and forth between an island and Allentown during various times of the year.
Also, there is transiency from school to school with ASD, which causes a need for standard textbooks and curriculum among the ASD schools.
It blows my mind how a you as a person who has the power of this out reach use it to your own benefit you are so busy pointing out the negative instead of staying facts You know Nate not the organizer .You are a very smart man .I'm extremely disappointed you took this route just for news reads .You all knew this was brewing for many months .Bottom of the barrel school distrct .That what you should put on blast .but you won't .Shame on you
I told the truth, and of course, it bothers you. Nate Whips is a criminal thug and was one of the organizers of this walkout. Frassetto dishonestly tried to hide him and his past. These guys have been exposed as the charlatans they are, and have been rejected by the students.
Anon 10:48
Please educate yourself before calling the whore of the lehigh valley a smart man. This "smart man" as you say is a disgraced and disbarred alcoholic who barely escaped criminal prosecution for forgery, fraud misrepresentation, illegal conduct, conduct that is prejudicial to the administration of law, and conduct involving moral turpitiude.
He's one step away from a jail cell and is one of the most hateful stupid jackassess to ever pollute the area.
Yet this stupid jackass is about to take your home, Mezzacappa, unless you pay up on a $72,000 plus judgment. What does that say about your intelligence?
Smh lol this is NATE WHIPS. I've been hearing about this absurd post for a while and all the ridiculous accusations and stories being made up about me. In the end my life is good and you'll usually catch me smiling and in a great mood. I'm very thankful for that. Now as far as the spreading herpes fulgazi text/video people are talking about starting from an "anonymous" person, that is just comical. U can easily create fake texts that look like people wrote them on several apps with the victims number and everything and my number is public. That was a very ridiculous fake text message. Just google fake text apps and you'll see how they made it. And the infamous voice recording they were claiming to have heard I will give anybody $500 who can get a hold of it because I know that it doesn't exist and I would give full permission to put it on every media wall you can if it did. That's my guarantee. I've already told several people to request it and nobody has gotten a hold of it yet which I don't know why it would be so hard if it existed. but people love drama and love to jump on bandwagons and or believe anything negative about somebody they'd rather not like because they just love to hate. Often for no good reason. as far as the whole supplying alcohol to minors thing, that's completely false as well. I put a Facebook post up asking for a ride from anybody and when a female responded and gave me a lift I was not aware of her age or that she had had a drink before picking me up but I had no alcohol in my system or on my person nor was there any in her car. to get it over with I just paid a fine and that was done so all that pedophile talk is just ludicrous. I crack up at some of the things I hear about me and wonder where I was when these things happen. and as far as me using drug money to buy cars smh just another hateful story that I can't believe. Nobody in the drug game if they were able to talk openly could ever say that they've done business with me regards to any narcotics since I was a teenager before I was arrested for it. There are so many things its just crazy even people having a problem with the offering the educational protest movement to use my limo to pick up disabled children who can't make the March and elderly people involved who may have a hard time on that walk, which I mentioned in the video I posted I would be doing days before the event, and also allowed the students that were held up at school and late to the event to hop in with the other adults. I supported an event that I believed in and will continue to do so despite any slander put against me. anybody who knows me can vouch for my character and you see many people doing so on my page so I just want to give big thanks to all of my supporters and I'm not even going to get back on this malicious post by this ex lawyer who has a horrible reputation to begin with.
so thissss is the bs post I heard about. lol u clearly have a big personal issue with me that stems far before this fugazi post. please I and would pay you to post that audio recording you playing exist on your so called friends page. Because no one has seen it yet that I know of that try to find it. I don't know why that audio should be so hidden I encourage you to post it everywhere in the world if it exists and I know that it doesn't because it's all BS. The text message that you tried to promote was just created off of a fake text app that you can download on playstore the day this article came out. lol it takes only 5 minutes to create a fake text with somebody's number on the top of it making it look like it came from them. But that text was just created the night before last because your dumb ass messed up and left the date on it. and just FYI I wasn't just in jail for 90 days. I miss assassin urine and had to go to jail for two weeks and then six weeks of work release for driving without a license, yes. advice: stop obsessing over me and making it ur business to sabotage me and just focus on something that can help ur future out and that u dont have to anonymous about.
Nate ... I doubt you will answer this because it doesn't advance your agenda but
1) if you don't have a license then why is there video of you driving a limo?
2) where do you get your misinformation about Dr. Mayo (ie home theater, 800k annual salary, etc)
Nate Whios, Use your real name, Nathan Markham, if you want to be honest. There is video of you driving and you have no license, rocket scientist. You have one of the lengthiest criminal arrest records I have see, and it does include a corruption charge in February. You are also a liar. You keep repeating a lie that the Superintendent stile $100,000 for a home entertainment system. That is complete nonsense, as is the claim that $20 million is missing. Since you claim to have a lot of mioney, why are you behind on paying your costs and fines? If you cared about the kids, you'd stay away from them. But you don't. This is about you and your own narcissism. If Frassetto had any brains, he'd keep you away. You are a criminal thug and should not ne exalted as a role model to these students.If you got your act together for about two years, and wanted to tell kids not to make your mistakes, I could see it. But it's too soon for that. You are repeating the same behavior that got you in criminal trouble.
Walk-outs = drop outs.
Cant learn if you're not in class,
Very mindless of people to go along with what everybody is doing.
And isnt this nate guy currently (or just prevoiusly) in the mens correction facility, aka work release program? Lol
He just got out.
All you can do is attack Nate from the safety foo your little blog. Nate is too cool to worry about a cowardly old white dude.
You and your kkk pals are haters.
I have attacked Nathan Markham, aka Nate Whips, from this blog. But I sign my name to my posts as well as my comments. I take responsibility for my words. Over the years, I have been defamed and physically threatened for the things I say. I once had a car window smashed. You, on the other hand, really are a coward. You accuse supporters of education of being "kkk pals" or an "old white dude." But you do it behind the petticoat of anonymity. Perhaps you know what it is like to be at the wrong end of a defamation suit.
Who cares if he is a criminal have the school teachers are criminals and what difference does it make that teaches can go on strike for weeks I don't blame the kids and a criminal like my self supports them I hope they got the point across
Everyone talks about the kids walking out what about the teachers that walk out that's fine though right this is ridiculous get off your high horse and instead of worring about Nate whips worry about your school and help the children
So far as I know, no teacher walked out. Let me add, Jennifer, that the parent of any middle school child who is not concerned about their children hanging out with criminal thugs, should have their heads examined.
Mr. O'Hare this is your blog and you are free to post and exersice your right to write as you please.( even personal attacks like the ones directed to Mr. Frassetto and the other guy, AKA Whipplease) You are right there is no teachers walkouts in Allentown...that shows the level of repression that the City of Allentown is suffering. People are hesitant to express their opinion in public because the repressive police force will come...full force with the wrath of the gods. Don't you Republicans can understand that We the people are tired of being abused, look down upon, margined and leveled. This man, Frassetto has the right to organize a youth party if he please to do so. This is Not Nazy Germany(Even though our police force act like the Gestapo and citizens rights are being violated everyday) You bash this other guy on the head because of his criminal record? Don't you believe in second chances? Don't you believe that people do have the ability to change? I guess not. Talk on your blog about How the Mayor is being investigated...How the feds took computers from his office. But I guess you don't talk about that for fear of getting repressed by them too. So sad that you have to blog about people that are actually taking a stand for what they believe. This is my first time on your blog and my last. You are just biased like fox news. Probably a probocator working for the City on making Mr. Frassetto look like he is doing something ilegal or against the constitution...whe we both knows he is not. Guess what...? Eventually with your Nazy and Zionist propaganda against this man...You will make him a Symbol for those that still afraid to speak up.
I'd like to respond, especially since you have so many things wrong. But since you indicated you're not interested in what i have to say, there is no point.
Who's number is this?
