Teachers are conducting a three day march against school closures. This is a fight between teachers union and Rahm Emanuel, a win-win situation, as they eat their own.

Says a group of seemingly well-off white people…
According to this unionist, Rahm not only hates children, but he murders them by approving closures.

Twitchy notes:
That’s right. It’s OK for the “educators” in the Chicago Teacher’s Union to shut down schools and endanger kids left abandoned to streets, but it’s murder when Chicago mayor Rahm Emmanuel tries to shut down schools (most of them poor performers) to keep the district solvent.
Most Chicago public schools are awful, and teachers earn $76,000 per year, on average (second highest in the nation).
But who cares about all that? It’s time for the teachers, er “freedom fighters,” to protest
It isn’t really even about Rahm:
Best sign yet: it’s not just #Rahm, it’s #capitalism #CPSclosings #EDUjustice twitter.com/gregrgoodman/s…

What it’s really all about is preserving union jobs and indoctrination:
