Oklahoma’s Superintendent of Schools Ryan Walters continues to make news, usually for trying to inject the Bible and the Ten Commandments into every classroom.
But recently he made a different kind of news. As the state board was meeting with Walters in executive session, two members saw that the video screen behind Superintendent Walters was showing naked women. Not women in bathing suits: Naked women!
The video has been viewed more than 90,000 times. He was called out for his hypocrisy. Mr. Family Values!
Tres Savage and Sasha Ndisabiye wrote in NonDoc:
Two members of the Oklahoma State Board of Education were “shocked and mad” when they saw a video featuring “naked women” on the television screen in Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters’ office during the executive session portion of Thursday’s meeting.
While neither Becky Carson nor Ryan Deatherage could tell what video was displaying nude women on Walters’ office TV, each told NonDoc they were the only people seated in a position to see the screen. Deatherage said he noticed the video first while a parent was speaking about her appeal of a district transfer denial. As Deatherage weighed his options about how to bring the video to the room’s attention, Carson noticed the nudity.
“I was like, ‘What am I seeing?’ I kind of was in shock, honestly. I started to question whether I was actually seeing what I was seeing,” Carson said. “I was like, ‘Is that woman naked?’ And then I was like, ‘No, she’s got a body suit on.’ And it happened very quickly, I was like, ‘That is not a body suit.’ And I hate to even use these terms, but I said, ‘Those are her nipples.’ And then I was looking closer, and I got a full-body view, and I was like, ‘That is pubic hair.’ Even right now, I couldn’t even tell you what I was watching….”
The State Board of Education regularly reviews complaints made against teachers and school staff members that involve allegations of misconduct. With that in mind, Deatherage and Carson each said Thursday’s bizarre scenario demands some sort of action toward Walters.
“Besides the shock value and the disturbance of it all and how it affected me as a woman, I think it’s the double standard,” Carson said. “The accountability we are putting on teachers — and we should, I’m not saying we shouldn’t hold teachers accountable — but we’re looking at teachers sometimes with lesser offenses.”
Deatherage said he believes that any other educator who accidentally displayed a nude video at their workplace would face a complaint, investigation and possibly ramifications.
Nothing quite as stunning as a Bible-thumper caught in the act as a hypocrite.

Let’s not be too hasty here, after all it could have been a depiction of Adam and Eve in the garden, only Adam stepped out to get a coffee.

You’ll have to pardon me for being slow on the uptake, I had to look up who Coldplay was. Just last night I was listening online, and delighting in, some Bobby Short.

Actually, it’s not particularly shocking to find these people caught in
this sort of hypocrisy. It’s a feature, hardly a bug.

If this was a teacher, the laptop would be seized and a complete investigation of the laptops contents would be conducted. He was doing official business presumably using official equipment.

A guy was once arrested in Utah, under its restrictive laws, for possession of porn videos. The prevailing legal doctrine at the time nationwide was whether the material “violated prevailing community standards.” So, his lawyer subpoenaed records of videos watched in hotel rooms in the area. It turned out that hundreds and hundreds of local husbands, butchers, bakers, and candlestick makers were checking themselves into hotel rooms alone just so they could order the videos. ROFL.
