Parents in Chula Vista, California, are demanding answers from Kate Bishop, a member of the school board whose vile messages on Twitter recently went viral after a concerned father shared them on social media.
whose years-old vile messages on Twitter recently went viral after a concerned father shared them on social media. The interim superintendent distanced the school district from Bishop's tweets and Bishop herself acknowledged the tweets as"past mistakes" and said they were meant to be funny.
Kimberly Dickson and Matt Dickson, parents of two, called on Bishop to resign, describing her"jaw-dropping" tweets and raising concerns about the school district turning a blind eye to such behavior. "Ms. Bishop received the Let's Talk Dialogue on Friday. I am not aware if there was any further action taken regarding this dialogue," Nancy Teahan, assistant to the superintendent and school board, wrote, according to the posted screenshot."She is the perfect example of who not to put in charge of decisions that affect our children," Thomas concluded.
The concerned parents also pointed out a tweet from 2011, in which Bishop said she was"Off to the park to see what hot 3-year-old girls my kid can hit on," with the hashtag"#ValentinesDay."Davidson-Brock said Bishop ran on a platform of being"a parent advocate," but she argued that Bishop"doesn't represent Chula Vista. This isn't how the people I know talk.
"It's terrible all the cholera these Mexicans are bringing across the border. Still, nobody loves like I do. Believe me," she tweeted with the hashtag"#TrumpBookReports." "The social media posts occurred years before Kate Bishop’s election to the Board of Education. Her personal tweets do not represent the opinions or beliefs of the Chula Vista Elementary School District," Esquivel wrote."The content of the tweets puts her character into question, whether they were made last week, last year, or ten years ago," she said.
