May 30, 2024 – Delmarva Parent Teacher Coalition The MSDE recently released student arrest data across all school systems throughout the state. This is just arrest data (not incidents), which are much greater in numbers. There are cases where arrests should have been made, but were not. Wicomico County had the most recorded arrests as compared to other counties in the state. When we see large numbers, it’s a positive that some districts appear to be cracking down. The negative is the number of occurrences to prompt why things are so bad. In attempt to alleviate the negative appearance, schools often…

Slave Auction in town square of Easton, MD in 1850’s (Public Domain) I always heard that the auction of human beings in Easton occurred in front of the court house, and it looks like that story was fairly accurate. But while Maryland was a “slave state” there were a great many African-American “freemen” living on the Eastern Shore, working alongside white people in the various industries. Slavery did exist here, however. Before the 1700’s white people, mostly Irish and Scots, worked as indentured servants which meant that after a certain amount of time they might be freed. Sometimes they were,…
Every parent of a high school or college student should give this book to their child and require them to read it. Many of us who know history often comment about how it seems our country is rapidly sliding down the slope from freedom to Marxist Communism that rivals that of the USSR and Mao’s China. When we state these observations, some on the Progressive left give that little derisive chuckle they employ so much in an effort to dismiss our thoughts as ridiculous. Others don’t laugh but ask us, “What’s wrong with that? Capitalism is unfair to the poor…
How many times have you heard it? “Don’t talk about politics or religion with family and friends.” It’s very bad advice. And, on this Memorial Day Weekend, I am telling to ignore it. It’s your duty as a rational American. The advice is based on the thought that discussing these topics with friends and family will cause friction and confrontation. Most people don’t desire either of those, especially when it comes to celebrating holidays or family events. I’m not going to dispute the fact that arguments will center around these topics. I remember arguing with my father when I was…

Salisbury, Maryland – May 24, 2024 Salisbury Mayor Randy Taylor has announced that the planned gay pride flag raising for the month of June will not take place at the government building because he believes it’s inappropriate to use city assets to promote one group over another. Mayor Taylor stated that going forward, the City will only fly the Salisbury flag, the Maryland flag, and the American flag. On occasion, the City may also fly the POW-MIA flag. Mayor Taylor emphasized that the only change made was the limited use of the flag on the City pole.
