If none of the Constitutional protections are guaranteed then we are all SLAVES to the State.

Sadly, I think the teacher accurately instructs us on our current state.

We seems to have been alienated from our inalienable rights.
Now I suspect the teacher is pretty pleased about it, whereas I am depressed and angry. But the point is: the teacher has a point.

My 9th grader’s science teacher is still showing Al Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth.”

We butted heads six years ago when my 21 year old was showing this movie in his classroom.

RE :”The courts have consistently determined that the Second Amendment does not ensure each individual the right to bear arms,” the worksheet states. “The courts have never found a law regulating the private ownership of weapons unconstitutional. “

Is there a right to speech? Can the government require you to get a speech licence and ban certain types of speech?

Our public schools are in such sad shape. The teachers are clueless. The Bill of Rights was written for the people not the government. The Founding Fathers couldn’t shive a git if the state had a National Guard. Teachers on drugs.

Bingo. That is exactly what they are doing.

And we all just sit on the sideline, complaining.

Sounds like this guy is a graduate of the failed education system and can’t read. He should have someone actually read at least the second amendment to him.

"What??? No right to bare arms?????

[Jim Scott]

The leftist indoctrination of our nation's children continues, practically unabated, in our public school classrooms - and our hard earned tax dollars pay for it. That Pravda article was right, communism has won in America. Most folks just don't know it yet but they will, and very soon, as the left continues their march to a communist utopia where citizens exist only to serve the collective and foster the (all together now) 'greater good'.

10: liberals are slime
20: public schools are worthless
30: go to 10

Learn it, live it.

Progress will not occur until we totally eliminate “progressives”.

[Resolute Conservative]

Alas, the repetitive chant of “private school” or “home school” is not going to help us anymore. For those that do, it will ensure your child is being taught the correct history, but the problem is unless we take back our public school system the 80% (and I am just guessing at the number) of kids that are in public school will be the voting block of the next generation. I am really starting to fear there is no turning back without an armed conflict of some sort and division of the union.

I guess HELLER doesn't matter to them...

Education is the U.S. is the indoctrination arm of the Communist Party. Of course, it doesn’t believe in the Constitution or Bill of Rights...or even our freedom.

[FunkyZero]

you would all be proud... my 10 year-old has been repeatedly scolded for pointing out inaccuracies in some of the media they hand out, one of them called "Weekly Reader" often contains leftist commentary regarding things such as immigration. Last Friday I received another note from his homeroom teacher asking why my son refers to his weekly reader as "propaganda leaflets".

I have to say, I don't think I've ever been more proud of him. I did send a letter back warning her to expect much more of the same since I teach my kids to study both sides of every coin.

Keep it courteous, but let him know how you feel.

Thanks for waking up Mr. Boibeaux. Now maybe you'll really get your stuff together, remove your child from the government indoctrination center and start home schooling.
