I think this is the case of people hearing bits and pieces and coming to the wrong conclusion. The DOJ is investigating the violence and death threats voiced to teachers, educators, and school boards. When someone says 'I know where you live' you better believe that you need protection.
There are some people (I can't call them parents because it is unknown if they really are parents) who are interrupting school board meetings because the board is asking for students to wear masks or they want the schools to stop teaching critical race theory.
The kicker is that critical race theory is not taught in K - 12 classrooms. It is only a graduate class in some universities. Wearing masks helps to protect you from the deadly virus (over 700,000 souls lost in US alone).
What is troubling is these people are using violence or the threat of violence to get what they want. Not a very nice way to show an example of how to behave to their children (if they are parents).
