Can’t wait to see Christian Morris destroy Fiore at trial. Maybe then Fiore will waddle out of Nevada for good.

Michele Fiore wrote that she intends on attending Boyd next fall because, as she writes, "UNLV has changed its LSAT requirements for Boyd Law School". Great move, lowering that bar to admission! This will be fun.
The part of me that just wants to watch it burn, really wants to see Fiore as JP in Nye. The stories will be endless. Nye County and Fiore are the perfect match if you think about it.
I assume JP's are subject to the jurisdiction of the Nevada State Commission on Judicial Discipline? I put the O/U on Fiore running into problems at about six weeks.
Of course it takes years for the Commission to do anything (unless it is the Clark County DA and/or Clark County Sheriff pushing for the proceedings).

As far as the "pornographic assignment", I am not sure I would call this "pornographic" however there is no reason the teacher could not tune it down a notch. This teacher could have changed/ softened the assignment however the teacher wanted what the teacher wanted and now comes the backlash. There is a middle ground between burning "catcher in the rye" and drag queen story hour. Hope the teacher is ready for the blow back that they brought onto themselves.
What – exactly – could the teacher tune down? The assignment was two-fold. First, student 1 creates a monologue. Then, student 2 memorizes it and performs it. It's a theater class at LVA. If you're not at least somewhat comfortable with LGBTQ people, issues, or themes, you probably shouldn't study theater, and LVA is not where you should go to study theater.
In 5 years the blog will read: "If you're not at least somewhat comfortable with bestiality, incest, pedophilia, etc. issues, or themes, you probably shouldn't study theater, and LVA is not where you should go to study theater." Respect and tolerance does not mean embracing.
@1:58 – what are you talking about? Being comfortable with LGBTQ equates to comfortability "with bestiality (sp), incest, pedophilia, etc."? What a fear mongering scare tactic, honestly laughable to anyone with a brain.
Something actually closer to reality is that being comfortable with current GOP talking points equates to comfortability with Nazis.
1:58, I'm guessing you don't know anyone who has ever attended LVA in its nearly 30-year history. It's been LGBT-friendly the entire time. Try actually talking to LGBTQ people, instead of looking down at them in church and fearing the Homosexual Agenda. If you can't perform what someone else wrote, even if it deals with raw, powerful emotions, theater is not the place for you.
2:34. The tend toward what one is comfortable with has, historically taken a path toward “progressivism” if ur on that side or “immorality” if ur on that side. It’s perfectly logical that a widening of what is acceptable sexually will end with the list I gave. It’s happening in many places. It is a truism of ALL ages that the next seems more liberal. U seem ok with lgbt etc but resort to name calling about incest. Give it a couple hundred years and invest will be ok and those people will be troubled by something new. It’s not me friend it’s just reading some history books.
The LVA story is fascinating because I am waiting for the other shoe to drop and it to humiliate the entire bizarre lawsuit. The daughter is in theatre class. The daughter raised no objections to her assignment. The daughter was not embarrassed by the assignment. It is months later that mom sees the monologue and loses her proverbial shit and goes helicopter berzerk.
Should the teacher have shown a little more discretion? Yes. Should Administration have been a little more sympathetic in listening to Mom? Probably. Did the CCSD School Board mishandle Mom in their meeting? Heck yes because it is the CCSD School Board. But that is not what this is about. This is about a red meat federal lawsuit funded by an advocacy group to humiliate the District and a Mom who is absolutely bananas and humilating her daughter because she wants the word "dick" expunged from ever being mentioned in the city's magnet arts high school.
As far as the "bestiality, incest, pedophilia, etc. issues, or themes" ilk, come on guys. I am a Republican. Interned for 2 (R) congresspeople. Worked in the Heritage Foundation. We/you are going to lose any credibility in the culture war that is being waged by this hyperbole. This story is not about any of that stuff which was, is and will remain ridiculously inappropriate, illegal and never morally ok. This was a piece of writing that the student should (and my understanding from my LVA student did) have the right to opt out of reading. The student did not opt out and found nothing objectionable about the piece at least until her Mom went off on her like she went off on the School Board. This young woman will be scarred far greater by being involuntarily named as a Plaintiff in a lawsuit than she ever was by having to say the word "dick." Merry Christmas all.
You are correct. I am not from the Michelle Fiore Republican Party. I am from the Republican Party that used to win statewide and national elections. The other Republican Party will continue to carry Nye County, (see above) and if we can banish our nutwing out there then lets do it. But that has nothing to do with whether a high school sophomore saying the word "dick" is going to trigger cats and dogs sleeping together and the Apocalypse. Most of us are smarter, more reasoned and better than what is put forth above.
Totally correct. Catcher in the Rye is edgy and subversive. Drag Queen Story Hour is people in nice clothes reading. I guess it could be subversive if they read the kids Catcher in the Rye, though.

>"If you're not at least somewhat comfortable with bestiality, incest, pedophilia, etc. issues, or themes"
Jeez, yeah, let's conflate consenting adults having sex and people living by their own gender expression with crime and rape.
We heard the same thing before gay marriage was legal "oh but if we let a MAN marry another MAN what's next? He's going to want to marry his DOG or his CAR"
Yeah the teacher could have handled this way better. No it does not mean that LGBTQ = pedophilia.
No. LGBT does not equal pedo . . . . . . even as hard as the pedos try to lump themselves in with the LGBT community.
But, If you don't see the "MAP" phenomenon gaining publicity and acceptance, you are blind. The incremental movement towards acceptance of child sexual abuse is the problem.
Dog whistle stuff. No one is normalizing paedophilia by calling it "minor attracted persons." Mental health professionals are trying to differentiate those people who are attracted to underage people from those who criminally offend. We are starting to treat it and interdict it through mental health in addition to (and hopefully before) addressing it criminally. Like any other mental health issue, it is OK to be 1000% against and to want to prevent horrible acts while also wanting to treat the mental health beneath it. No one is accepting it.
Right. Pizza parlor basement in the Adams Morgan neighborhood in DC right? We can demonize and want to protect children against predators without having to fashion chapeaux out of Reynolds Wrap.

Michele Fiore becoming a Justice of the Peace will win the award for "Most Nevada Thing Ever". I would make the drive up to Nye County just to watch her morning docket. Talk about reality TV!

I can't tell if this is a joke. Link?
Not a joke! I followed the TNI link above, which has a link to the filing docs for all applicants. 222 page document, her statement is on page 97.
The whole document is quite a read.
I think this is the LSAT change she's referring to – an 'alternate admissions' options for existing UNLV students who have 3.75 or higher and meet other conditions. https://law.unlv.edu/admissions/jd/lsat-alternate-admission
The part of me that just wants to watch it burn, really wants to see Fiore as JP in Nye. The stories will be endless. Nye County and Fiore are the perfect match if you think about it.
Absolutely!
Please please hahahah that would be adding crazy to insane!
Go..Go Fiore !

JP's are subject to discipline. You may remember a matter from two years ago in the LVJC.
Of course it takes years for the Commission to do anything (unless it is the Clark County DA and/or Clark County Sheriff pushing for the proceedings).

Yeah the teacher could have handled this way better. No it does not mean that LGBTQ = pedophilia.
See 3:16
Yeah, I see you said exactly what I commented. Stop the fearmongering.
>It’s perfectly logical that a widening of what is acceptable sexually will end with the list I gave.
No, it's perfectly illogical. One group is consenting ADULTS, the other group is CHILDREN who cannot consent. And so, no, it is not logical.
This is just "gay people want to rape your kids" with extra steps and it's fucking absurd.
No. LGBT does not equal pedo . . . . . . even as hard as the pedos try to lump themselves in with the LGBT community.

You are kidding yourself.
#SaveTheChildren
Right. Pizza parlor basement in the Adams Morgan neighborhood in DC right? We can demonize and want to protect children against predators without having to fashion chapeaux out of Reynolds Wrap.
That is all you got? Come on……
Good options for defamation defense lawyer in Las Vegas?
Randazza
LOL. No.
Not Randazza. Try to find someone with no discipline.
Wait. You'd want someone who has no discipline?
Mitch Langberg, Brownstein Hyatt.
Todd Bice.
Mitch Langberg is the best.
Depends if the defamation is a SLAPP or not.
Randazza. he will fight like a pit bull and knows the law inside out

Does the JP in Nye County have a JAVS system installed?
