Dr. Johnson's comment regarding the proposed school bond is despicable. In using the Newtown tragedy to try and justify this 32 million dollar travesty to the voters is beyond belief. If, in fact as Dr. Johnson stated, it is not currently possible to lock down the High School and ensure the safety of our children, his contract with the district should be cancelled and his employment immediately terminated. Of course, if we the voters recognize this now all too popular scare tactic for what it is, a ploy to hold our children's safety hostage, the expected defeat of this proposed bond will be a reality. A 32 million dollar bond, in this economy, is simply ridiculous and unacceptable. It only deserves another resounding NO! from the voters.
