The Globe reports the Boston School Committee is considering rules to bar outbursts and displays of impoliteness at its meetings, such as waving signs or turning one's back on School Committee members.
The regulations would be similar to those imposed by the City Council, whose chambers are festooned with signs warning impolite people are subject to removal.

school committee: yelling or terrorism, what do you want
They have only themselves to blame. The school department makes decisions in an arbitrary, secret and obscure fashion. They are better off getting yelled at than the alternative which is terrorism.
Here's a suggestion: be a transparent agency that presents decisions that are best for the kids, not for the school department.
The School Committee sounds like....
... a bunch of petulant crybabies.
Good luck with that, School Comm
I'm sure they'll enjoy drawing that line between impoliteness and and accepted "Speech."
I'm sure the audience will enjoy playing with that line. They could just write on their shirts or something...
Elections
We are denied our right to elect them, now we are being denied our right to free speech. Let's go back to an elected School Committee and get rid of these people.
