Louisiana Democrat State Representative Attacks Declaration Of Independence On House Floor
The Hayride ^ | May 26, 2016 | Scott McKay (MacAoidh)

Posted on 05/26/2016 4:12:40 PM PDT by smith5460

HB 1035, a bill by Rep. Valarie Hodges that would have mandated that schoolchildren in Louisiana be taught the Declaration of Independence, sailed through the House Education Committee with a 6-2 vote. But Wednesday, when the bill reached the floor of the House, it had a different fate – amid a torrent of squabbling, Hodges returned the bill to the calendar and it’s likely finished for the session.

The Louisiana House of Representatives has 61 Republican members out of 105, and yet it was apparent no consensus for a cornerstone of basic civics in the state’s public schools did not seem available to the bill’s supporters.

Just goes to show how far the Marxists have gotten in their attack on the freedoms in America.

Only today’s DemoRat party would object to the teaching of the Declaration of Independence.

Louisiana has a different heritage than the other states, since they were a French colony under French law. I suspect the Declaration of Independence would have been harshly put down by the French if it originated in LA.

...just because she can’t read doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be taught

Geeze, a little warning next time, please. The photo at the article, while bad enough, did not prepare me for that ocular assault.

I like this line from the article:

"What we found out was something many of us knew – namely, that Rep. Barbara Norton, a Democrat from Shreveport, isn’t a fan of our founding documents – and also is a barely sentient being."

Since 1930 our skools have been taken over by hard core Marxists to flip 2000 years of Ethics and ERASE ALL THE IDEAS OF THE FOUNDERS (Classical Thinkers). They intend to collapse Western Civilization (Christianity).

They eventually got ALL of Christian faith to be eliminated by 1960 so they could demean it and erase it from minds of children and embed satanism, atheism and Mother Earth Worship (ethics) so children would be totally irrational and immoral.

Virtue is habituated and only taught with Classical Christian Education. As Socrates stated, the ONLY purpose of “education” is to instill Virtue—for without virtue embedded in children, there is no Freedom.

Today, the publick schools teach Vice is Virtue and normalize evil, vile behaviors to warp the desires and destroy Logic-— and they group little children which naturally makes them “hate” (since they are immature and like “the Same” in Latency. We are herd animals and LIKE the ‘same”-—it is NORMAL and essential for survival.

The skools will embed hate for “Others”—particularly Male/female paradigm, to warp desires and destroy the possibility of maturation in the children (and Wisdom).

They need to emasculate boys (embed dependency only) and eliminate the maternal instinct in women, so they willingly kill their own genetic offspring and never bond with a male (so State is daddy).

Christianity (most rational “faith”) is being wiped off the face of the earth so the State can control all thoughts and actions and destroy Logic in the little children (no parents) and these programmed “bots”will be used in their homosexual orgies-—much like John Maynard Keynes—the Fabian Socialist, and the Franklin Cover-up/Sandusky boy sex-ring and Jimmy Savile-—the Royals in England’s buddies who not only raped the children—they killed some and put them in Satanic rituals and raped dead bodies. Sodomy is the Satanic ritual which mocks God and equates Life to Excrement-—it is why homosexuality is such an abomination...it is a vile, evil worldview which is NEVER about “Love”-—always lust and vile, filthy, hedonistic behaviors which strips human beings of all dignity and meaning..

Okay. Let’s then teach the Confederate States of America platform.

If Norton is stupid, let’s help her continue to be stupid.

The document is ignored in law schools as well.

The ‘alter of abolish it’ and embedded natural law is anathema to all good statists, who much prefer a ‘living constitution’.
