The National School Boards Association (NSBA) has formally asked the White House for “federal law enforcement” to deal with threats, intimidation and acts of violence. The NSBA's letter requests that law enforcement agencies use controversial statutes like the Patriot Act to deter acts of “domestic terrorism” made against “school board members, district administrators and other educators.”
Yet CNN anchor Brianna Keilar didn't bring up the “terrorism” designation while interviewing NSBA President Viola Garcia.

For those who've forgotten, the mainstream media described scenes of destruction and mayhem in the Midwest last summer as “mostly peaceful.” Remind me, why did they do that?
One Twitter user made the obvious point that we should let the local police deal with the few people who make threats. The idea of making this a federal issue is bad news for anyone who worries about government overreach.
