FLINT, Mich. (WJRT) — Danielle Green has been voted out as Flint Community Schools board president, but will remain as a school board member. …
The leadership changes Wednesday evening came after a heated disagreement between Green and Treasurer Laura McIntyre during a Flint Community Schools board meeting earlier in the day turned physical.
Green and McIntyre got into an altercation during a discussion about building new schools for the district. …
McIntyre said called the altercation an unprovoked attack by Green.
“There was no fight. There was no argument. This escalated out of nothing and very quickly it was an attack. It was an assault,” McIntyre said.
She said Green grabbed her throat, slammed her head on the table and punched her repeatedly in the head. McIntyre sought medical treatment for a concussion after the incident.
“I was brutally attacked and had to seek medical attention,” McIntyre said. “I’m only here to make sure the truth comes out and justice is served.”
There appears to be a history of contention between the two board members. Green said that McIntyre stuck her finger in Green’s face prior to the altercation.
Green said she was pushed to her limit after previous run ins with McIntyre.
“Never in my life would have thought something like this I will be involved in ever, ever. And I can say this my record speaks for itself. This one incident does not define who I am. Or it does not take away the work I’ve done in my community,” Green said. …
“At this point I plan pursue this to the full extent of the law and I’m looking at my other legal options as an individual,” McIntyre said.
I don’t know if any video exists.
In defense of the Flint ex-school board president, maybe she’s suffering from lead poisoning? From Wikipedia:
The Flint water crisis was a public health crisis that started in 2014 and lasted until 2019, after the drinking water for the city of Flint, Michigan was contaminated with lead and possibly Legionella bacteria. In April 2014, during a budget crisis, Flint changed its water source from treated Detroit Water and Sewerage Department water (sourced from Lake Huron and the Detroit River) to the Flint River. Residents complained about the taste, smell, and appearance of the water. Officials failed to apply corrosion inhibitors to the water, which resulted in lead from aging pipes leaching into the water supply, exposing around 100,000 residents to elevated lead levels. A pair of scientific studies confirmed that lead contamination was present in the water supply. The city switched back to the Detroit water system on October 16, 2015.
Or maybe stuff like this — e.g., lead poisoning and school board assaults — tends to happen in Flint because its quality of politicians and civil servants is not high?
This kind of No-fighting-in-the-War-Room stuff happened in Congress before the Civil War and sometimes in recent decades has happened in East Asian parliaments. But I’ve never heard before of a woman-on-woman beatdown during a school board meeting.
Granted, it’s a fool’s errand to try to draw statistical trends from a sample size of one, but it does seem as if the celebrated “racial reckoning” since May 25, 2020 has encouraged blacks to act out more.
