Wednesday, August 18th, Toms River South High School
Sergio: “Is the letter on the agenda?”
Board President: “Yes it is.”
Sergio: “Okay, great! Thank you! Sergio Fossa in Toms River, I will read my statement for the sake of time and efficiency before the Board.
‘And accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.’
Does anyone on the Board know what I just quoted? Anyone? Declaration of Independence.
For those who think I’m a mind-numbed, patriotic simpleton, please bear with me and suffer my appeal to the laws of nature and of nature’s God, and perhaps adopt a measure of humility rather than self-righteous disdain as I briefly make my case.
These are not the times for the weak willed, the spineless, the coward, the liar, or the politically expedient. We need men and women in leadership to stand firm against the overwhelming tide of bureaucratic despotism . . . (I’m not sure if everyone’s listening) . . . Courage is the order of the day. In this debate over masks, the arguing continues until finally the gauntlet is dropped, the threat to end all threats and silence all opposition: the threat that the state will pull your finding. And to that I say: so be it. Pull the funding . . . (And I’m gonna take all my three minutes) . . . And then you, the Toms River Board, go redo the budget, that’s what you were elected to do. Let them pull funding. We will buckle? Will we buckle and compromise on principle? Buckle on principle? For what, money? For bribes? Bribes? Tell Trenton and D.C to keep its money. But don’t, do not, bow the knee to the encroaching oligarchy. That same threat, the power of the purse, will be levied against you and the district. But as I began, this is not a day for the weak willed but the strong. This is not about teacher salaries, iPads, subsidies, layoffs, and money for new technology. This is about the right to life and property, the pillars of our constitutional government. This is about the right to liberty, the right to thrive under the protection of constitutional, ordered liberty rather than suffocate under the arbitrary and capricious whims of bureaucratic despots, those elite few who under self-righteous pretense subject the population to misery and exploitation. As such, we are calling you to do what is RIGHT, not what is expedient, according to the prerogative of this citizenry to live free. The greatest iteration—let me be clear—of the right to property is an individual’s prerogative to maintain his or her vessel against encroachment and molestation, particularly by state sovereigns, who, as those vested with the authority to govern and wield the sword, necessarily pose the most significant threat to individual life and property. COVID is not our threat, but unchecked power is. Do not mask my face . . . (yeah, I’ll be done) . . . Do not mask my face nor that of my child. You are violating my constitutional right to life, liberty, property, and equal protection. Don’t write—Board of Ed, Toms River Board of Ed—any more resolutions—I’m not impressed—or mollify the crowds with pretentious letters to the governor. Defy the governor, defy his law. The Stamp Act . . . The Stamp Act was a law. The Stamp Act. Slavery was the law.
