And yes, this is very much gun-related.
I'm a brand spankin' new teacher in UT. Around here, almost everyone belongs to the UEA (UT Ed. Assoc.) as well as their local chapter.
BOTH are spinoffs of the NEA!!!
They all oppose just about everything I believe in and vice versa, including supporting banning of CCW in schools and public places.
I took a look at the American Federation of Teachers and they're almost as bad.
Now, some might wonder why bother with unions? Well, I'm not so worried about the union reps as I am about the insurance against false accusations. Just last year in my school a teacher was accused of "improper touching" and was put through absolute hell. I would like representation and at least $$ coverage should the same happen to me.
As it is, if I'm ever found out (CCW), I'll probably be toast.
**Isn't there some conservative union?
What do you teachers do????
