Commack firefighter killed in Iraq military helicopter crash BY SARA-MEGAN WALSH SARA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM A military helicopter crash in Iraq has hit close to home for both the Commack and Elwood communities. Commack resident Master Sgt. Christopher Raguso, 39, was among those killed in the March 15 helicopter crash. The 39-year-old was one of seven airmen on board a HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter carrying out a mission in support of Operation Inherent Resolve, an American-led mission to defeat ISIS in Iraq and Syria, according to the United States Department of Defense. The DOD said the cause of the crash is under investigation. Raguso was assigned to the 106th Rescue Wing at the Francis S. Gabreski Air National Guard Base in Westhampton. His mother, Laura Raguso of East Northport, said she pleaded with him not to go on this most recent deployment. “I begged him not to do it,” she said at a press conference, but that Raguso responded by saying if he didn’t go and do it, who would? “As a mother, he crushed me that day.” Raguso was also a 13-year veteran of the Fire Department of the City of New York, where he was currently serving as a lieutenant assigned to Battalion 50 in Queens. On six different occasions, he was cited for bravery and life-saving actions either for his individual actions or as part of a unit. “Lt. Raguso and Fire Marshal [Christo-

pher] Zanetis bravely wore two uniforms in their extraordinary lives of service — as New York City firefighters and as members of the United States Armed Forces,” said FDNY Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro. “The hearts and prayers of the entire department are with their loved ones and with the families of their five fellow service members who lost their lives defending our country.” But to Commack residents, Raguso was perhaps best known for his service with the Commack Fire Department as lieutenant of Company 4, located off Kings Park Road. He joined as a volunteer in 2000, according to Commack Fire Commissioner Pat Fazio, and previously served as captain of Company 2 located on Elwood Road. “He was a devoted father, devoted husband, devoted family man and a true patriot to our company,” Fazio said. “It’s unfortunate the timing and passing of his death while serving his country and fighting for the freedoms we all enjoy.” Raguso was posthumously bestowed the rank of honorary fire chief based on a unanimous vote of the Commack Fire Department’s membership March 16. He was well known in the firehouse as he played an “integral role” in training new members, according to Fazio. “It’s not for any other reason other than he would have achieved the rank of chief, no doubt,” the commissioner said. “It was an aspiration he had, it was well known and something he would have achieved.”

Fazio said several members of the Commack Fire Department drove to Delaware to join Raguso’s wife, Carmela, and the family at Dover Air Force Base to see Raguso remains return home March 18. “We will forever be there for the family,” he said. “His wife and his children will forever be part of the family.” Elwood school district also mourned Raguso’s passing; he was a 1997 graduate of John Glenn High School. “The district extends its deepest condolences to Lt. Raguso’s family and friends,” wrote Superintendent Kenneth Bossert in a message on the district’s website. “He died a true hero serving our country, and we join the entire nation in mourning his passing.” The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a Staten Island-based nonprofit in memory of New York firefighter Stephen Siller who died in the 9/11 attacks, has stepped forward to donate $100,000 toward paying off the Raguso family’s mortgage. “Our mission is to honor and support military personnel and first responders,” said spokeswoman Catherine Christman. “In Christopher Raguso, you have both in one person.” Christman said the Raguso family has undergone many recent hardships as his wife, Carmela, is a recent breast cancer survivor. He is also survived by his two daughters, Eva Rose, 5, and Mila Teresa, 6. No details on his wake or funeral arrangements were available

as of this publication’s press time. Capt. Andreas O’Keeffe, 37, of Center Moriches; Capt. Christopher Zanetis, 37, of Long Island City; and Staff Sgt. Dashan Briggs, of Port Jefferson Station, were the others from the rescue wing involved in the fatal crash, according to the DOD. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) ordered flags on all state government buildings to be flown at half-staff in their honor March 19. Huntington Supervisor Chad Lupinacci (R) similarly directed the flags on all Town of Huntington buildings flown at half-staff on Monday. “The people in our town are deeply grateful to your loved ones for their sacrifice in the protection of our nation’s security,” Lupinacci said in a statement. “On behalf [of] the Town of Huntington, you have our deepest sympathies and our prayers will be with you and your families at this sad and tragic time.” Master Sgt. William Posch, 36, of Indialantic, Florida, and Staff Sgt. Carl Enis, 31, of Tallahassee, Florida, both assigned to the Air Force Reserve 308th Rescue Squadron, also died in the crash. U.S. Rep.

Huntington vets receive a free St. Pat’s Day feast BY SARA-MEGAN WALSH SARA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

156802

A St. James resident and Commack business owner worked together to make sure the luck of the Irish was delivered to homeless veterans from Huntington to Riverhead this past weekend. As many Huntington area residents were waking to find the sun shining on St. Patrick’s Day, Robert Cornicelli, founder of the nonprofit Veterans for a More Responsive Government, gathered his friends and volunteers over cups of coffee at Quick Stop Deli & Catering in Commack. Cornicelli, a U.S. Army veteran who retired in November 2017, organized the loading of boxes of prepacked meals in the back of a car to be delivered to disabled homeless veterans at nine United Veterans Beacon House locations throughout Suffolk County. Beacon House is a Bay Shore-based nonprofit that provides housing for homeless veterans, many of whom are disabled due to physical injuries or mental impairments related to their time in the service. “Every Thanksgiving, I would raise money to bring Thanksgiving meals to Beacon House, then it became Thanksgiving, Christmas and Super Bowl Sunday,” Cornicelli said. “I decided I’m going to try to do this for every major holiday.” He launched a GoFundMe campaign mid-February that quickly raised more than $1,000 toward the March 17 feast. When Cornicelli mentioned his idea to longtime friend Rudy Massa, owner of Gasoline Heaven and Quick Stop Deli & Catering, he quickly stepped in to provide food for the 107 veterans and cover the remaining costs. “Why not? I’m in, let’s do something,” said Massa, a U.S. Army veteran, in remembering their conversation. “We are trying to do the right thing and give back to the community a little bit.” On Saturday, Massa provided 107 plates of a “proper St. Patrick’s Day feast” consisting of corned beef and cabbage, Irish-style potatoes, carrots, Irish soda bread and the utensils needed to dig in. Joining Cornicelli and Massa in delivering the meals was U.S. Marine Corps veteran Terry Devaney, a resident of one of the Beacon House locations in Huntington. He wanted to lend a hand after enjoying the Super Bowl meals set up by the St. James nonprofit in conjunction with Tommy O’Grady, owner of Miller Place’s Tuscany Gourmet Market, last month. “It’s very gratifying to know that people are thinking about you,” Devaney said. “A lot of veterans feel they are kind of forgotten once they are discharged.” Devaney, who served in the Vietnam War, retired from his position as a veteran service officer for Suffolk County in September 2017 suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. He said he wanted to help as the free meals provided by Cornicelli and his nonprofit go a long way toward boosting morale. “It may seem like a small matter to most people, but a good meal can mean a lot,” Devaney said. “To have them deliver it and say thank you for your service, it reinstills your pride in having served.”

Beigel Schulman then turned to look upon a photograph of her son again. “You may have died senselessly, but as I stand here today, I can honestly say not in vain,” she said. “It has been one month and I promise I will not stop until no child ever has to fear going to school, being with their friends at school and learning from their teachers [at school].” Supervisor Chad Lupinacci (R) unveiled the new street sign renaming Hart Place, where Beigel grew up and where his parents still reside, to become Scott J. Beigel Way. Tragedies such as Parkland, Lupinacci said, “especially touch home when you have someone that grew up here, went to the high school, went to many of the same stores we go to … We thought it very fitting for where he grew up and spent his formative years to be renamed in his honor.” The supervisor said a proper ceremony for the street renaming will take place in the upcoming weeks.

“We just want Scott’s voice and legacy to live on — we don’t want him to ever be forgotten,” said Melissa Zech, Beigel’s sister. “I think he would be so proud and I know we’re so proud of him. ― He was so smart, quick-witted, caring and loving. These are things I wish I would’ve told him when he was here.” Michael Schulman, Beigel’s father, also spoke of the honor. “This took us all by surprise,” he said. “It’s a great acknowledgement of what this town meant to him, and what he meant to the town. Right now, the street sign is something that’s bittersweet, but, in the years to come, it’ll just be sweet. I just wish we didn’t have to have it.” Huntington Town Board is expected to formally vote on renaming Hart Place in Beigel’s memory at its March 20 meeting. Lupinacci also said the new street sign would be put on public display for area residents to see.

EDUCATION

Northport students silently reflect during walkout Hundreds of Northport High School students walked out March 14 in hopes that their actions would speak louder than words. Senior Ryan Dowling, student organizer of the walkout to pay tribute to the Parkland, Florida, students and faculty killed in the school shooting one month ago, said she estimated between 200 to 300 students quietly left the building to sit in the front courtyard at 10 a.m. Wednesday morning in unified action with thousands across the country. “We decided that 17 minutes of silence was the best way to go,” Dowling said. “The point was to remember the 17 lives that were lost and to show we didn’t have to say anything to make our voices heard.” There were no speeches given, no chanting and no homemade signs calling for gun control or legislation. Only a singular black banner with the word “Enough” written across it in white duct tape stood with the students. Those who didn’t walk out were seen photographing the event from classroom windows, according to Dowling. “I think that everyone was respectful

Left, Northport students sat in silent protest in the front courtyard on National Walkout Day March 14. and mature about it,” student participant Samantha Sanuki said. “I had a fear of it becoming political with those who disagreed with the walkout — those people who were sharing their political views.” On their way back inside the building, Dowling and Sanuki said the participants encountered other students holding Trump banners or wearing pro-Trump T-shirts. Both say the atmosphere remained largely respect-

ful in attempt to not disrupt those classes still in session. Superintendent Robert Banzer and high school principal Daniel Danbusky had a meeting with the student organizers of the walkout prior to March 14, in which any student who considered participating was initially warned they could face up to three-day suspension for walking out without permission, according to Dowling.

“My parents were supportive of me when I made the decision to try to spearhead this movement,” she said. “My mom was encouraging me saying, ‘I think you should walk out, and if no one is starting the conversation, I believe you should start it yourself,’” Dowling added. Days before the event, the senior said Danbusky contacted the student organizers and participants and said they would be considered cutting class for the period. It carries a considerably lighter punishment, a phone call or email to notify the student’s parents, according to Dowling. “The students — those who decided to walk out and those who decided to stay in class — handled the matter with respect and dignity,” Banzer said in a statement. “Regardless of the decision they made, I am very proud of all of them for that.” Dowling said she has plans to travel to Washington D.C. for the March for Our Lives March 24. Sanuki said that she was still talking with friends about whether to attend the March for Our Lives protest scheduled for March 24 at 11 a.m. in Huntington’s Heckscher Park, off the corner of Prime Avenue and Route 25A.

Cuomo: Punishing peaceful demonstrations is unconstitutional BY ALEX PETROSKI & DESIRÉE KEEGAN

As students and districts deal with the aftermath of a nationwide student walkout March 14, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) has made it clear where he stands on punishments for those who participated. “Peaceful expression of views on controversial issues that is not disruptive or threatening is a right that all students have in this country, and any attempts to stifle this speech violates the constitutional rights of students and faculty to free speech,” Cuomo said in part in an open letter to New York State Commissioner of Education MaryEllen Elia in an open letter March 15. “Threatening to discipline students for participating in the peaceful demonstrations is not only inappropriate, it is unconstitutional. Reports that schools may also discipline faculty are also highly concerning and would send a terrible message to our students.” Students from several North Shore schools, including Ward Melville High School, Rocky Point High School and Northport High School, participated in the national walkout inspired by political activism stemming from a Feb. 14 shooting incident at a school in Parkland, Florida that killed 17 people. Many of the survivors from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida spearheaded what became a national movement. Students in other districts, like Earl L. Vandermeulen High School and Harborfields High School, participated in school-approved indoor memorials and remembrances which also

included outlets for students to express their views on gun control legislation. Many school districts issued warnings prior to March 14 that participating students would face disciplinary action. Elia was publicly supportive of the walkouts prior to March 14. Michelle Salz, the mother of a Rocky Point Middle School student, said she will be joining with a group of parents who have come together to fight the suspensions legally. “I am infuriated that the school is not allowing my straight A honors student, who is the president of her student council and the president of the National Junior Honor Society, to exercise her First Amendment right to free speech,” she said. “It is disgraceful that our school district is choosing to penalize our activist students instead of embracing this event as a teaching opportunity.” Here is Cuomo’s letter in its entirety: Dear Commissioner Elia, Yesterday, I proudly stood shoulder to shoulder with brave students and faculty who spoke out against gun violence. History provides moments where real change is possible, and the thousands of students who participated in organized walkouts all throughout the state are seizing the moment and admirably standing up for the safety of their classmates and students across the country. In the last 24 hours, there have been several reports of New York State schools disciplining students and faculty for participating in yesterday’s historic events to stop gun violence. In at least one disturbing incident, it was reported that the school physically blocked the exits to

Gov. Andrew Cuomo prevent students from demonstrating. These actions send a terrible message to New York’s children and are against constitutional free speech protections. I call on you to use NYS Education Department’s authority to stop these schools, reverse course and cease any disciplinary actions. Peaceful expression of views on controversial issues that is not disruptive or threatening is a right that all students have in this country, and any attempts to stifle this speech violates the constitutional rights of students and faculty to free speech. Threatening to discipline students for participating in the peaceful demonstrations is not only inappropriate, it is unconstitutional. Reports that schools may also discipline faculty are also highly concerning and would send a terrible message to our students. The students who participated in the walk-out are trying to advance laws and actions that would save their lives, and many viewed their participation as necessary to their

own safety. The scourge of mass shootings in schools is very real, and these students were taking proactive steps to protect themselves and their classmates. These actions, coupled with the peaceful manner in which the demonstrations were conducted, is something that should be lauded, not punished. Additionally, I call on you to thoroughly investigate any reports of schools that blocked the exits to physically prevent students from leaving during the event. This [is] an egregious safety violation and is also unlawful. Yesterday’s actions were a testament to the courage and leadership of New York’s students. As I said yesterday, these young people are showing more leadership than the so-called leaders in Washington. To punish or discipline them is inconsistent with the freedom of expression that we cherish. It would say more about the adults imposing discipline than it would about the students who exercised their rights to speak out. Sincerely, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo

EDUCATION

Harborfields students unite, instead of walking out BY SARA-MEGAN WALSH SARA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

TWITTER

Harborfields students came together to share their feelings on school shootings and gun violence, rather than walking out. Harborfields High School hosted a student-organized HF commUNITY Summit in the gym at 10 a.m. March 14 rather than participating in National Walkout Day, a planned demonstration in which students across the United States exited schools in protest. “Our schools are very safe and not just because we have enough security guards, cameras or buzzers,” said Superintendent Francesco Ianni in his March message to the community. “Our schools are safe because we believe in the importance of letting children speak about their feelings and emotions as a result of the events that surround us. We are always there to support and guide our students in appropriate freedom of expression.” Harborfields Principal Timothy Russo said the schoolwide event was scheduled after he was approached by many students who expressed a desire to “do more than simply walk out of a building and congregate somewhere,” in an undated letter to the community. Student organizers led the summit that allowed any students to publicly speak about the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida Feb. 14 that killed 17 people

Harborfields High School hosts a student-organized forum HF commUNITY Summit March 14 rather than participate in National Walkout Day. and the ensuing, heated national discourse. “No one should feel so unsafe in a place of such community and security,” said student speaker Sophia Braunstein. “Regardless of what political ideology you stand for, I think we can all agree that America has a problem.” Braunstein, a senior, remembered how she was in seventh grade when the Sandy

Hook elementary school shootings occurred that killed 20 children and six adults in 2012. “I was left with a fear that never left,” she said. “The day after the Parkland shooting, that same feeling resurfaced and my anxiety grew so bad I asked my mom several times to leave school.” Braunstein said even she could see the

differences in the national discussion in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook shooting, where the victims were elementary school students, compared to Parkland’s high school students who are utilizing social media to call for change. “For students in Harborfields who feel discouraged by adults saying you shouldn’t have a voice, or we don’t know what we are talking about, don’t be,” Braunstein said. “History repeats itself.” She cited the leadership shown by the Little Rock Nine, a group of nine African-American students who, escorted by federal troops, led the desegregation of public schools at Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas in 1957. Braunstein’s comments also touched on college students’ impact on public opinion of the Vietnam War in the 1960s. “We can be and will be the generation that can say we ended mass shootings in America,” she said. Olivia Espinoza, a student at Harborfields, said she really enjoyed hearing the passionate speeches from her peers Wednesday. “This rally showed a beautiful side of our generation that isn’t afraid to stand up for what we believe in, contact our local senators, participate in protests and marches, and make a difference in the world,” Espinoza said. “I am confident we are on the road to change.” Harborfields school administrators did not response to request for comment.

KAREN FORMAN

Hundreds brave icy waters for Northport polar plunge BY KAREN FORMAN Hundreds gathered March 18 to brave the icy cold waters off Steers Beach for the 9th annual Polar Bear Swim. Traditionally held on New Year’s Day, this year’s polar plunge had to be rescheduled for the day after St. Patrick’s Day because the water was a sheet of ice back in January. “This is the first year we ever had to reschedule,” said Pat DeSimone, a member of the event committee. “Some years we’ve gotten really lucky and it was 50 degrees out. Now it’s 28 degrees out, but it feels like 18 and the water temperature is only 38 degrees.” The event is run by Northport Boy Scout Troop 410, which donates all the money raised from this event and the pancake breakfast held earlier in the month to the Ecumenical Lay Council Food Pantry in Northport. “The spirit of the people coming out here in this weather is amazing,” said Donna Galluccio, chairwoman of the food pantry. “This is a very giving community, always helping their neighbors.” The food pantry regularly services approximately 190 households, or approximately 600 people, in the Northport, East Northport and

Centerport communities, according to Galluccio. Last year, the Boy Scouts raised more than $5,000 for the food pantry, and they are hoping to top that this year. Nine years ago, when they first came up with the idea for the polar plunge, Assistant Scout Master Bob Newton said the leadership of the troop was looking to raise money, do community service, and teach the boys about fundraising. “This is part of the BSA’s Scouting for Food program,” Newton said. “We wanted to take a different angle, do something a little different than just the pancake breakfast.” A handful of this year’s participants came in costume. Kurt Hall, 26, from Hope House Ministries in Mt. Sinai, came dressed in a ballerina costume that he first wore to a 5K race last year. Hall said he didn’t know the Boy Scouts were giving an award to the person in the best costume, but he took first place. He came to the event with his friend, Steven Hernandez, 32. “We are in recovery and trying new things,” Hernandez said. The final total of participants’ donations was not available as of press time. Those still interested in donating can visit www.troop410swim.com.

SPORTS

Huntington poised to improve on season record BY BILL LANDON With a new head coach comes a new goal for the Huntington boys lacrosse team: take two more wins. Last year, the Blue Devils finished with a 6-10 record, with three of those losses coming from one-goal games. The last time Huntington made the postseason was 2013, losing to Miller Place by a single score in the first round. If the team can win just two more games than last season, the Blue Devils will end the five-year playoff drought. “We need more structure — more discipline by implementing a system that guys buy into and that works, that makes the guys like lacrosse,” head coach Julian Watts said. “We’re changing the culture, not the tradition, but changing the way we prepare them for games, making sure they’re confident, putting them in the right spots, and hopefully, they can execute.” Leading the charge will be senior goalkeeper Sam Bergman, a three-year starter who began every game between the pipes last year.

“There so much more room for growth,” the coach said. “And we’ll continue to grow — there’s no limit to how good we can get. We’ve got to continue to push each other, maintaining that chemistry on and off the field. It’ll come down to us playing to the very last minute of [every] game.” According to Watts, who played at St. Anthony’s before competing for Hofstra University, this season is about more than athleticism and stick skills. “[I want a system that] makes them want to come to practice,” he said. “But along with structure and discipline, there are consequences. We have great coaches instilling a good work ethic along with hard work and paying attention to details. [If they] don’t cut corners that will bring success both on the field and off it — it’s all of the little things that count.” He said he sees the younger athletes pushing the older ones to show them what they’re made of, and the elders setting the standard for how practice should go. They’re all bringing the energy, according to Watts, including senior defensive midfielder Mike Abbondandelo and sophomore Jack Stewart, who will lead the team with Bergman.

Clockwise from top, Jack Krisch, Jordan McCoy, Colby Martin and Mike Abbondandelo bring the intensity during practice. “We lost three games last year by one goal, and in each it came down to miscommunication on the field,” Stewart said. “But this year, we’ve got great team chemistry and a much better vibe. We’re all on the same page.” Even though there’s more of a mental focus, Watts said the riding and clearing need to become second nature for his team so that it’s poised under pressure and in control, as to not make wild or out-ofbounds throw. “We just want them to make the highpercentage passes,” said the coach. “If we can do that efficiently and consistently, that’s a recipe for success.”

Senior defender Anthony McDonald said his team’s roster is deeper this year than it has been in the past, and with a high number of returning players he said he’s excited to see where the Blue Devils can take themselves this season. “I think we have a lot more experience on the field this year,” McDonald said. “Practice has been good, and we’re only getting better. We’re working hard, we’re pushing each other, and I see a lot of camaraderie and chemistry out there.” Huntington will scrimmage once more before opening the season with a nonleague game at Kings Park March 24. The first faceoff is scheduled for noon.

OPINION Editorial

Letters to the editor METRO/CREATIVE CONNECTIONS

Receiving a more educational punishment than suspension would help students, but they should not be stripped of First Amendment rights.

Teens have First Amendment rights I made the following comments at the March 19 Rocky Point School District board of education meeting. I think they can apply to all the districts that decided to prohibit their students from taking part in the March 14 walkout. I’d like to preface my comments by saying I don’t have children in the district. I am not here to support any specific student and I completely appreciate that parents may have different feelings about the walkout. I’m also not here to have a discussion for or against gun control. What I’d like to speak to is everyone’s right to have their voices heard in our democracy — including those of our children.

Historically, after all, it’s young people who have affected change. Granted, often it’s not children this young who do this, but wait, let’s not forget that in May of 1963 thousands of students, most of them teenagers, left their classrooms and marched on downtown Birmingham, Alabama. Their Children’s Crusade helped to change a nation. I can’t adequately express my sadness and disappointment with this board and this administration to choose to let caution and fear influence their decision to not allow students to participate in their constitutional rights with civic expression and activism. This district has lost an opportunity to teach students what it means to be

a citizen and an American. Peaceful protest is one of the most important rights we have as Americans and it is one we should protect for all people — including our children. Rather than tell them they shouldn’t participate, we should celebrate their protest as a sign that our democracy remains strong. This next generation will inherit many of the issues that we have struggled with for years. When they look back, they may want to know that they did not sit quietly in the face of the violence that is affecting them. Shouldn’t we as adults make it possible for them to speak?

I am writing this letter regarding the armed, off-duty police officers in the Miller Place School District. I understand the concerns of some of the parents. However, the officers of the Suffolk and Nassau counties and New York City police department are well trained and would not hesitate to take down a shooter at any school, unlike the sheriff in Florida. I am a retired Suffolk County police officer and served 31 years with the department. My last 14 years in the department I was a D.A.R.E. instructor in the Longwood, East Moriches and Patchogue-Medford school

districts. The program was 17 weeks in length and taught fifthgrade students about peer pressure, consequences, drugs and gang resistance. I was in the school and the classrooms with the students, in full uniform, and I was armed. I was known as Officer Richie, and I was a positive role model for the students. The faculty, administrators and parents all knew me and welcomed my presence in the school buildings. There were approximately 28 police officers in schools throughout Suffolk County until then-Executive Steve Levy decided to dismantle the D.A.R.E. program because

he felt that the officers would better serve the communities if they went back on street patrol. This was unfortunate because the D.A.R.E. program was one of the best public relations programs for the community, police officers and students in the county, and enabled students to interact positively with all police officers. Therefore, I feel there is a need for armed off-duty police officers, whether in the school building or on the school grounds, in case they are needed to protect the students and faculty.

Ernestine Franco Sound Beach

Have the punishment As a former officer: ‘Arm school guards’ fit the crime The discussion locally and nationally about potential suspensions for students who participated in the walkout March 14 has us thinking. The issue with suspensions, we feel, is that it’s the wrong way to go about punishing a student for his or her wrongdoing, based on both context and merit. Giving a student a day off from school for misbehaving or not completing his or her work doesn’t seem quite like a punishment. Even an in-school suspension doesn’t seem like an effective answer. Surely something more productive and positive can be born from an instance of student rule breaking. Community service or completion of acts of kindness in lieu of a day at home on the couch, for a student who talks poorly about another student or answers foully when speaking to a teacher or administrator seems more appropriate. Exercises that create more inclusion and less exclusion might have a more positive effect in the long run. In situations when a student is violent, sending a message that it cannot be tolerated while also remaining under supervision of the school community, say, with additional counseling time or through a written personal reflection about the ramifications of their behavior, would create better outcomes than a day at home playing video games or watching TV. Schools are admittedly in a tough position in deciding how to handle punishments for students who used class time to make a statement on an issue they feel passionate about. More can be learned from, say, being assigned to research and report about civil rights protests in the 1960s. For the record, we are behind Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) sentiments regarding districts’ reactions to the March 14 walkout. Yes, it’s against school rules in all districts to walk out of school in the middle of the day, but students experiencing a moment in time of solidarity and turning it into action is something worthwhile that educators should seize on as an opportunity for learning, not vegetating with a day off. “Peaceful expression of views on controversial issues that is not disruptive or threatening is a right that all students have in this country, and any attempts to stifle this speech violates the constitutional rights of students and faculty to free speech,” Cuomo said in a letter. “Threatening to discipline students for participating in the peaceful demonstrations is not only inappropriate, it is unconstitutional. Reports that schools may also discipline faculty are also highly concerning and would send a terrible message to our students.” Reports by parents and students claim districts like Rocky Point, among others, were suspending kids for participating in the national event. We urge those districts to view this as an opportunity for a teachable moment. These are unique times requiring unique responses.

Richard Esopa Miller Place

Delivering adult day health care to vets As a nation we have a responsibility to ensure our nation’s heroes have not only the tools they need on the battlefield but the care and benefits they have earned when they return home. That is why I introduced the Adult Day Health Care Act, which as of last week, has now been sent to President Trump for his signature following House and Senate passage. My proposal will provide access to adult day health care for disabled veterans who need extra assistance and special attention in their dayto-day lives. Whether it’s a Vietnam veteran affected by Agent Orange or an Iraq War veteran with a traumatic brain injury, veterans with a 70 percent or more service-connected disability rating often require significant assistance in order to carry out everyday tasks. Many times, the

burden falls on family members; some veterans may even need to reside in institutionalized facilities to receive the daily assistance of a trained medical professional. This type of financial and emotional burden is not what our nation’s heroes and families deserve. The Adult Day Health Care Act provides comprehensive medical and personal care combined with engaging social activities for the physically or cognitively impaired, as well as an array of therapies and counseling, all while maximizing independence and quality of life. This program is currently offered at only three state veterans homes in the country, one being the Long Island State Veterans Home in Stony Brook. This means that most veterans are unable to afford or access this quality care. My bill defines the adult day

health care program as a reimbursable treatment option through the Department of Veterans Affairs, which guarantees all severely disabled veterans are able to access the program at no cost, and helps expand the program to all 153 state veterans homes across the country. Our nation’s veterans and their dedicated families have sacrificed enough. This bill will give veterans the care they have earned while providing families with the support and relief they need to help their veteran loved ones to lead a fulfilling life, while keeping families together and strong. When our nation needed them, these veterans answered the call of duty. Now it’s our turn. It is our duty as Americans to help these brave and selfless heroes.

OPINION

Going around in circles

T

he following dialogue was inspired by an actual conversation. No friendships ended as a result of this interaction. Joe: That’s interesting. Aaron: What made it interesting? Joe: It held my interest. Aaron: That’s tautological. Joe: What does tautological mean? Aaron: It’s a kind of circular argument, like something is interesting because it held your interest. So, what’s interesting about what I said? No, you By Daniel Dunaief see,Joe: it’s not what you said, so much as the way you said it and, of course, the fact that it was, indeed, you who said it. Like, remember that time you said that our boss was having an affair with the man she kept insulting at work and then, lo and behold, she was?

D. None of the above

Aaron: Yes, I remember that was because she was having an affair with you. Joe: Oh, right. Good times. Aaron: Can you tell me how what I said interested you? Joe: But, first, did you read the latest thing about Donald Trump? Aaron: Which one? Joe: The one where he’s mad at the media and the media is reporting about stuff he says isn’t true. Aaron: You’re going to have to be more specific than that. Joe: You want specifics? How about Russia? Aaron: What about it? It’s a country. Joe: You’re funny. Aaron: Stop calling me funny and tell me what Trump and the media are disagreeing about. Joe: Are you angry? Aaron: I’m trying to have a conversation. Joe: Conversation. That’s interesting. Aaron: What’s interesting? Joe: It’s like the way you’re looking at me right now. You know what I mean? Aaron: Nope. Joe: You have your eyes open and

your eyebrows are up, like you’re expecting me to say something interesting, when, you know, you’re the one who always says interesting things. I read interesting things. This morning, I read something compelling about Trump and the media. Aaron: OK, let’s go with that. What was compelling about it? Joe: It was just, you know, well, maybe you wouldn’t think it’s compelling and maybe you knew it already, which means I probably don’t have to tell you. Aaron: I want to talk about something. Joe: We are talking about something. We’re talking about me and you and this weather. You know what I’m saying? Aaron: Not really. Joe: The weather is all around us, right? And, it’s all around everyone else. Except that, when people are somewhere else, the weather around them isn’t the same as it is here. So, to experience weather, you really have to be here. Aaron: Right, uh huh. Go on. Joe: Now you’re looking at me differently. You’re frowning. You

need to laugh more often. That’s your problem. Aaron: I don’t have a problem. I’m trying to have a conversation. Joe: About what? Aaron: Well, a few minutes ago, you said what I said was interesting and I’ve been waiting patiently to find out what you thought was interesting about it. Joe: Oh. Let me think. I’m going to replay the entire conversation in my head and then I’ll let you know. Aaron: Right, sure. Joe: No, really. Was it before or after the conversation about the weather? Aaron: Before. Joe: See, I was listening. I remembered that we talked about the weather. Aaron: You weren’t listening to me. You were listening to you. You brought up the weather. Joe: Right, OK, I have a confession to make. I wasn’t listening to what you said all that closely, but I know it was interesting. Aaron: What part? Do you remember any of the conversation? Joe: Not really. I have to go. It’s been nice chatting with you.

TBR News Media video post goes viral amid concern for our children

A

man at a March 14 PTA meeting in a high school in Rocky Point, New York, confronts a student in the aisle and holds a knife over his head. The pocket knife is closed and the man is trying to make a point about the need for security on behalf of the students in the school, including his two daughters. It is a heart-stopping moment, and the video was By Leah S. Dunaief provided to TBR News Media by a senior student named Jo Herman. We ran the video, along with the story of the meeting, on our website, Facebook page and YouTube. Such is the world we live in and the concern of parents around the nation that, to date,

the Facebook video post has been seen by more than 11.3 million viewers. The total reach for all our Facebook posts last week was in excess of 17 million. That’s 17 MILLION plus, about the same as the entire population of the Netherlands. In addition, there have been many thousands of shares and comments on our Facebook page and our website. These numbers were supplied to us by Facebook Insights, the dashboard of Facebook and the most authentic source. If ever we needed evidence of this world we are living in today, and the heartfelt concern of parents throughout the United States, here it is. Could there be any parents who feel untouched by the concern for the safety of their children in the schools? Children have become the latest targets of an assassin’s gun. These are not jihadists doing the killing. These are not ideologues carrying out the murders. These are our own citizens, in many cases

children themselves, who are able to procure weapons and turn them on their teachers and classmates. Those 11 million viewers and all the rest of the parents, grandparents, siblings, relatives and friends of children who haven’t seen this video are no less terrified at the tragedies that have already been perpetrated and the violence that may yet come. What is to be done? There are many reactions. Our children have realized their political clout and called for action with their walkouts and 17 moments of silence. Politicians in various states have proposed legislation, even passed legislation in one state, Florida, to try to gain control of this madness. The state is being sued for doing so, and the president offers words. Consider this. A puppy dies on an airplane and within 48 hours, there is legislation passed to attempt to prevent such an unhappy event from happening again. How many more youngsters and adults must die before we can get

our arms around this horror? Social media can be great. It can be a miracle thread that connects us, informs us, unites us. It can also be a misery, as governments around the world are realizing. Facebook has been corrupted by its inability to prevent personal information from being stolen by nefarious thieves. But it has delivered a loud and clear message with the frenzy of response to a single incident in a small town on Long Island: The population is frightened, more frightened than by any attacks made against us by foreign nations or religious fanatics in the past. This threat is inside our defenses and until now seemingly unstoppable. Yes, we need gun control. Yes, we need mental health services. Yes, we need greater vigilance. Yes, we need protection. We need all of that and more. Most of all, we need leadership, not contention, because this is a moment that is shaking our republic in its heart.
