On Thursday, The Daily Caller posted an article about a father who protested his son’s being taken out of school to attend an anti-ICE rally.

The article reports:

A father who posted a video of himself pulling his son out of a “walkout” protesting operations by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) tore into the Highline School Board in Washington state on Wednesday.

Hundreds of students in the Seattle-area school district took part in the Feb. 2 walkout, some of whose parents backed the protest, according to the Seattle Times. Vance Glawe, who drove to the protest to pull his son, a seventh-grade student at Cascade Middle School, out of the event, confronted members of the school board with fiery remarks during his two-minute address.

“My name is Vance Glawe and on the afternoon of February 2, 2026, my 14 year old child called me. He was not at school. He was not sick. He was in the middle of White Center, Washington, in the middle of a protest that was organized for his middle school,” Glawe told the members of the board during their Wednesday meeting in video that went viral when it was posted on X by LibsofTikTok.

The article concludes:

Glawe also set up a GiveSendGo fundraiser for legal expenses and to relocate, saying his son was receiving threats for his videos.

“I’m going to need some help with legal fees and relocation since I am now receiving death threats and I don’t feel my son is safe in this area anymore,” Glawe said on the page. Glawe added in a Feb. 4 update, “I cannot bring my son back to school because kids are threatening to jump my son because of my video.”

I have been told that some schools are having parents sign a blanket permission slip at the beginning of the year that allows the school to take the children on field trips. In the age of dinosaurs when I was in school, a field trip meant going to a museum, a zoo, a planetarium, etc. I guess it has a whole different meaning now. If you are a parent, don’t sign that slip–ask for individual slips for each trip!
