I hear she voices her opinion, and doesn’t care what people think of her views- like the ultra sound bill, and supporting gay rights for example. She’s real and I like that about her. It would have been awesome to here her speak.

Ms. Cobb-Hunter i really agree with your veiws on the ultrasound bill. i thank you for being so straight foward in telling us your take on things. the turth is just want we wanted to know and you tell it like it is personallity was very much appericated because a lot of the time adults dont take the time to tell kids the truth because they want to protect us when all we really want to know is the truth. so thank you:)

From what i hear it was really fun getting to meet and hear from Mrs. Cobb-Hunter. I wish i was there to hear her talk, i also herd she answerd every question thrown at her. I don’t agree with everything she said, but i respect her choices and i just wish i was there to hear her talk.

I’m bummed that I wasn’t there to hear her speak, but I believe it would have been a great experience if I was. I think that it is cool that she supports gay rights, and womens choice on abortion in a mostly republican state, although I wouldn’t agree with ALL of her opinons, I would have loved to hear her speak :)

I wish I could have heard her speak. I heard she was very cut throat with her opinions and I would have loved to challenge some of her ideas. I have started numerous debates already with her opinion on the abortion bill. Maybe next time…

Toyota- do you know the definition of racist?
I’m going to say no because this woman exemplified the opposite.
Mrs. Hunter spoke truth in a comfortable fashion, and none of her statements were in the least derogatory.
I for one was pleased to hear Mrs. Hunter speak. She spoke with passion and with a voice that commanded the room. She answered every question asked of her with ease and with confidence. She has made a wonderful addition to the list of outstanding speakers that have visited Ms. Payne’s growing classroom. Thank you again Ms. Cobb-Hunter.

Even though I did’nt get the chance to hear her speak, I think it would have been cool. From what I hear she has a lively attitude, and she isn’t afraid to speak what she thinks.

I wasn’t here to hear her, but all i hear is good things from it, so im pretty upset i missed this, because i hear she speaks her mind and doesn’t think twice about what she says. But im glad she got to visit our school, its always exciting when bi names visit Dutch Fork. Some people don’t agree with her opinions but that doesn’t stop her from expressing her feelings. Thank you Mrs. Cobb-Hunter for taking time and visiting our class!
