Let’s get serious folks are you happy with the “status quo” we rank 49th in the United States. I am not blaming the incumbent for this, but I look at the character of the incumbent. Not naming a school after a fallen Nevada Veteran, keeping the media away from veterans at the School Naming Committee. Manipulating the public by blaming “policy”, but one can abstain from a vote, not Janison, she voted against the men and women that give her and her families these freedoms.
Janison criticized Shutt by saying he is new and she is experienced, let’s not forget she was appointed and she knew absolutely nothing about being a Trustee until she was actually doing the job. It’s like the pot calling the cattle black. I am really tired about people that use their position to get ahead, back room deals and treats with union heads to gain an endorsement. Voting on construction companies contracts and then taken campaign contributions from them without public making a statement to the board.
We can all overlook this and say well, it’s okay. However, this person is supposed to be a role model for our children and this is what we as parents are teaching our kids. Let’s just look the other way. It’s sad to know that we place friendship with strangers ahead of the moral standards for our children. If you are happy with the “status quo” vote for this incumbent and keep your mouth shut. If not what do you have to lose with John Shutt Jr. a Las Vegas Police Officer with a degree, “hmm” is that scary or is that a fresh start for the 49th ranking school district in the nation?
Mr. Shutt is not hiding from you folks he is standing up to corruption; it’s just too bad we have to find out about this in an election cycle. Let’s stop being the voters of yesterday and go with a common name, smiling face, or someone that knows how to smile in your face and stab you in your back. Look at my user name it’s my name, I am not hiding from anyone and I stand behind Mr. Shutt and we at the Veterans In Politics International feel that you should too.
