Parents throughout the country have rallied against school coronavirus mandates to push back against masks and other policies, resulting in tense scenes, some of which prompted a police presence.
On Tuesday, parents from the Granite School District in Salt Lake County, Utah, erupted at a local school board meeting that later turned into a full-scale protest. Unruly attendees repeatedly chanted “no more masks!” at the meeting while some in the crowd approached top brass in the district, forcing the gathering to a halt.
Law enforcement was alerted to the display, and police are in the process of identifying the main aggressors who could face legal repercussions, district spokesman Ben Horsley told WGNTV. The demonstration followed comments from Utah Gov. Spencer Cox who has said face coverings will be required for the next school year. Adults have also filed a lawsuit on the matter in an effort to repeal the COVID-19 protocols.
