She says when her 14-year-old son came home from school and said classmates were dressing up in animal costumes, she initially urged him to just ignore them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201c\u2018It got progressively worse,\u2019 Edwards told CBS News Colorado. \u2018He said, &#8216;but mom they&#8217;re scratching hissing and barking.&#8217; He was getting agitated overwhelming frustrated.\u2019<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cEdwards says her son &#8211; who is on the autism spectrum &#8211; became so upset that she sent an email to the JeffCo school district saying, \u2018He does not see the fairness of these students being able to act inappropriately and dress in a manner that is disruptive to learning.\u2019<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAccording to her 6th grade niece, she told the district, the kids also \u2018walk on all 4s in the hallway&#8230; eat with their face in their food\u2019 and refer to themselves as \u2018animal avengers.\u2019<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAn open records request shows Edwards is among at least two dozen parents who\u2019ve written the district over the last eight months. Most of them refer to the kids as \u2018furries.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/when-people-ask-w-does-it-feel-to-be-a-cat.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"369\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18953\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/when-people-ask-w-does-it-feel-to-be-a-cat.png 500w, https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/when-people-ask-w-does-it-feel-to-be-a-cat-300x221.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more-->&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We, as a society, have gone past the point of possible parody.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17833\" src=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/quote-a-time-is-coming-when-men-will-go-mad-and-when-they-see-someone-who-is-not-mad-they-anthony-the-great-55-38-44.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/quote-a-time-is-coming-when-men-will-go-mad-and-when-they-see-someone-who-is-not-mad-they-anthony-the-great-55-38-44.jpg 850w, https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/quote-a-time-is-coming-when-men-will-go-mad-and-when-they-see-someone-who-is-not-mad-they-anthony-the-great-55-38-44-300x141.jpg 300w, https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/quote-a-time-is-coming-when-men-will-go-mad-and-when-they-see-someone-who-is-not-mad-they-anthony-the-great-55-38-44-768x361.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\"><meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@PoliticHatblog\"><meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@ThePoliticalhat\"><meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"Public Schools Protecting Furries\"><meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"As reported previously, there were seemingly outlandish claims of schools accommodating children who identify as animals.
