They won’t stop illegal guns from entering the country, but are feverishly planning to remove them from the law abiding people.

    They are making it harder for the working class while giving freebies to the non working. Nobody at homes will teach the young ones their ABCs or 123s, so start another program for the working to pay for. Oh you are single and keep having kids, here is a bigger and bigger check. Oh you can’t work cause you have too many kids, here is rent and electricity money. Oh you don’t have any earned income, here is a smart phone and free wifi for your home. Oh, your kid still can’t read after all these years, here is free money for college. Oh, no one will hire you, here is some free job training. Sure we will pay for your kids care while you get it oh you are addicted to heroine, well here is a methadone shot a day for you and the working will pay for it. And on and on and on.

    test it. If you are a working person, pick a cause and make a sign. Now go stop highway traffic or climb onto an occupied police car. Bet you $1 that you get arrested. You will be on the news for weeks. Your company will have to let you go. The reporters will broadcast from your front yard. Nobody will pay your rent or light bill or heating fuel. City council won’t offer you a smart phone. Your kids won’t be getting any extra college funding.

    Has any one from your local leaders ever dropped by and said that your house is a bit run down, how about we move you to a nice hotel while we repair and remodel this free home you have trashed?

    How many people do you know that are sick of hearing the false narrative of “systematic and disproportionately”

    When the food shortage comes and the bangers are kicking in suburbia doors, the cameras will roll and the headline will be “watch these under-served people go to heroic lengths to feed their families”

    Yes I listened to the whole video and just like you, I have no idea who's telling the truth since none of us have the facts. Unlike you however, I am not willing to defend either side just because someone happens to be loudly ranting accusations that are consistent with my pre-conceived opinion.

    That lady is speaking the facts. School boards are teaching that stuff as well as colleges. Wake up.

    This is EXACTLY why this country is in the trouble it's in right now. They are teaching KIDS about masturbation, critical race theory, etc. and this guy thinks it's just a different view.....

    All of these issues derive from one broad perspective known as "postmodernism," which has taken over many academic fields. Look it up on Wikipedia and educate yourself. In short, postmodernism asserts that there is no such thing as objective reality, independent of the observer. Therefore, there is no such thing as objectivity, truth, morality, and reason. Science and religion, which assume that objective reality exists independent of the observer, are favorite targets of postmodernist critics. Postmodernists believe that cultural, racial, sex based, political, and historically rooted self-interest underpin all human behavior. Sound like Marxism? You betcha! Most postmodernists are Marxists and those who are not clearly believe in the same underlying assumptions that lie beneath Marxism. Since postmodernists do not believe in reason, objectivity, and science, how do you argue or debate with them? The simple answer is that you do not and CAN NOT argue or debate with them, since they do not believe in objectivity, and reason. And, if you do disagree with them, since race, sex, class, etc. are the sole motivators for human behavior, you are by definition, a racist, sexist, etc. They only believe is using raw power and intimidation to force their beliefs on others and have no moral boundaries restraining their use of power. Some of the most radical postmodernists have no qualms about using violence to further their ends.

    Read more on your own and you'll see that most of the "crazy" ideas and policies that many of us object to firmly grounded in postmodernism.

    School boards and city councils have a history of screwing over their subjects and refusing to be held accountable while hiding behind policies and closed doors.

    A boiling cat of tar and a large amount of feathers oughta fix the problem.

    Sometime in the early 80’s our daughter was in grade school. She comes home from school and tells us we can never spank her. She can do whatever she wants to do and if we spank her her teacher said she would have us arrested.
    My wife started packing the daughters clothes in a suitcase, when the daughter asked what she was doing my wife told her “ looks like you will be living with that teacher, or at the Christian Home, but you won’t be living here. That took care of the problem with the daughter. Wife and I had a chat with the teacher. I don’t think anyone had spoken to her like we did. Fresh out of college, first year teaching 2nd grade and telling kids she could have parents arrested if they spanked their kids.

    Teachers don’t even teach American or World History like they used to. We saved a complete set of encyclopedias so our grandkids can use and learn things that have been removed from computers. How can a teacher tell a child the Holocaust never happened? They change history to fit their agenda.

    You can stick your head in the sand and feel it’s not your problem and wait for
    the yellow rain to wake you up or you can be informed and vote accordingly. Unfortunately people just want to be left alone and go to Apple Bees lol

    She didn't mention religion. I am assuming she is just wanting the basics of science, math, history and language without the political lean, right or left. As for me I believe religion should be taught at home. If you want it taught at school than choose a denominational school.

    There seems to be a unique sect inside the higher education system, and it trickles down. It's what the teachers were taught when they went off to college, What they see in their administration, and learn from their peers. I honestly think it will be a long difficult journey to "undo" some of this stuff. Unless, we dissolve the system and start from scratch. Let the engineer teach physics, the writer teach english, and the farmer teach ag.
