Meet the Science- and Muslim-Hating Conspiracy Theorist Running for the Texas Board of Education

[Tab]

This is Mary Lou Bruner. Mary Lou believes that baby dinosaurs lived on Noah’s ark, school shootings are a product of kids learning evolution, and the New World Order is working to reduce the world’s population by about two-thirds. Mary Lou also just so happens to be running for the Texas State Board of Education. She has a pretty good shot.

To be clear, Mary Lou is not an outsider or “fringe” candidate by any means. In her own words: “I have a master’s degree in Special Education and 36 years of experience as a teacher, counselor, and educational diagnostician. I have a BS in elementary education and English and 6 other Texas teaching certificates.”

Mary Lou Bruner on school shootings:

... The school shootings started after government removed the Ten Commandments and the Bible from public school buildings, and disallowed prayer at school and school events. The school shootings started after the schools started teaching evolution is an absolute fact and the classes cannot talk about weaknesses in the Theory of Evolution. The shootings started after the schools started teaching the Constitution of the USA is a flawed document written by selfish aristocrats who were only looking out for their own wealth, The school shootings started after the government started teaching children to feel sorry for themselves if they do not have as much as other children in the school....

Oh, and there's plenty more quotes on dinosaurs, climate change, Muslims, JFK shooting, same-sex marriage, sexual education, and much more...
