    It baffles me that these idiots (council creatures) never seem to consider that they may piss off a true nutcase in their unending bid for more donations. Like they seem to think that they can royally piss off 80% of their constituents and that isn’t going to include people who have no problem doing violence about it.

    Crazy. If I were them, I would be in genuine fear for my families safety. But I guess they aren’t.

    A 37-year-old teacher was released from a Kansas jail after posting bail following his arrest at a city meeting where zoning changes for a proposed data center project were passed.

    Lux Claridge, an Emporia High School physics teacher, was arrested for interference with law enforcement after clapping during the meeting.

    Commissioners warned those in attendance against disruptive behavior, including clapping, snapping or rude comments.

    Lux Claridge and several others clapped in support of speakers opposing the Flint Hills Digital Campus data center.

    As far as I’m concerned, Mr. Lux Claridge is a rock star of a physics teacher. And I bet his students, and the entire high school, think he’s one cool badass.

    Good on this academic gentleman.
