So, teaching about the Constitution is verboten in schools now? If this continues we won’t have a country anymore. Would love to see Mr Luce held accountable for his anti-American attitude.

Liberty is not a “hidden agenda”.

Liberty is the founding principal of the American people.

The left has already declared war on the Constitution. Eliminating it is their goal!

As opposed to liberals who teach children to ignore the Constitution.

Liberals hate our freedoms and liberals hate Americans who want to be free.

Glad we’re all clear on that.

The Constitution and Progressivism are incompatable. Progressives only love it as a symbol to wrap themselves in when it serves their purposes, not as a Law to actually obey.

The actress expiration date is 30.

She hit that in early in Clinton’s first term.

It’s getting to the point where teaching the Constitution is considered indoctrination by the left. For all of you who think that local elections are insignificant think again. School board members hold a ton of power and especially since they have control over our public schools when it comes to money and the curriculum that our kids are being taught!

If you must excerpt, can you at least provide some context, instead of a hashtag salad?

***********

Here are a couple contextual paragraphs:

In a statement sent out from Carroll Independent School District (ISD), parents were told that Turner provided students with “materials that included inappropriate topics and content for fifth and sixth graders.” What was deemed inappropriate? In an 11 page research paper presented to the students, according to Turner herself, “the scope of one paragraph and in the confines of highlighting an example of a poor, voluminous and incoherent bill, the words “sexual trafficking” and “abortion.””

In a defense penned for Town Hall, Turner wrote that she has presented the same research paper to 230 different audiences with no complaint of it being inappropriate. When approached by the school in question to give a speech in May, Turner forwarded the materials to the teachers and the school superintendents. She pointed out that “At no time did anyone, six months prior in March, four months prior in May, or the day before in September, ask me to remove any of the materials. If they had asked me to do so, I most certainly would have done it.”

Think about poor Kid Luce with a dad like that. Or maybe a mom, today it’s hard to tell?

The people having a problem with Janine are the same ones who beg for Planned Parenthood to bring all their sex ideas for the kiddos in the classroom.

How old/what grade is your son? I’ve been trying to recall when we studied this, and I think it was 9th grade.
