A humanities course currently taught at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs teaches that the Founding Fathers were hypocrites, terrorists and money-hungry barons who used hyperbole and fear to rile up the colonists to revolt against England.
The Resistance and Revolution class is co-taught by history lecturer Jared Benson and sociology instructor Nicholas Lee, who also suggest that it was Mikhail Gorbachev not Ronald Reagan who brought down the collapse of the Soviet Union, and that wealthy CEOs deserve to be in a moral prison, among many other assertions.
Calling the Founding Fathers terrorists, Benson and Lee voice criticism and cynicism against many of the events leading up to the Revolutionary War, teaching students the founding ideals were merely a fabrication for a social movement a means to an end for the colonist elites who were tired of Englands control and needed the gullible masses to help them break free. They argued the Revolutionary War wasnt really about freedom. The educators suggest that the only people truly affected by taxation were the rich. However, the rich could not wage war on their own and needed the poor to fight for them.

These guys are guilty of False Edumacation.
“THEY DESPISE THE IDEA!!! ALL THINGS MUST BE CONTROLLED AND CENTRALIZED!!! That is the only way in their minds.”
And in those demented minds, they somehow have gotten the notion that they are the chosen ones to direct the lives of the rest of us!
“The Right” is going to have to confront “The Left” regarding the subject of Marxists/Socialist/Communist professors.
Now that the Pubs have picked up nearly 1,000 legislative seats in Obama’s 8 year dictatorship, legislation needs to be passed in these states to defund radical far left tenured positions and abolish “Tenure” itself. This would be a start towards ending the poisoning of young minds.
College Professors: Top-notch experts on anything and everything there is to know, even outside their fields of expertise. Universities and colleges are factories of unassailable wisdom and knowledge.
But what about Hamilton?
Yep...numerous “powder alarms” in the early 70s. As well as the Intolerable Acts.
The only good professor is a dead professor.
Well, glad that’s settled,
the media has been lying all these years!
Pass the Weed!

That Howard assumed room temperature in 2010 hasn't stopped his acolytes.
I’ve had it with these enemies of the state, mouthing off and filling young minds with mush.
Forget the safe rooms.
Fire these idiots.
And set a rigid set of rules the students have to abide by or leave.
Theseadult baby sitting and reeducation camps are so over!
It seems all of the universities have been converted into indoctrination camps with very liberal professors all across this nation and I keep wondering why they are leading them on marches against Trump so fervently? Why the personal interaction with their students which is leading them into workingas actvists for the Soros machine. This is happening with many major universities. The NotMyPresident Alliance was set up by former students of the University of a North Carolina. Many of the fellow alliances working with them are from former students from other universities so one has to wonder what the hell is exactly going on. There has to be a common bond and I’m not talking Trump. I’’m thinking maybe unions might be directing traffic at the behest of someone else.
And that their forefathers and the forefathers before them had lived under tyranny for 600 years before that. Yeah they had a lot of experience with tyrant's do they knew what happens next once they take your weapons.
I have a copy of Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States. For the same reason that Jefferson had a Koran. A fact lost on Keith Ellison.
"Fine, upstanding citizens of the world, and leaders of men without peer!"
I mean. you did ask!
CA....
Projecting one’s own sins on others (”them”...meaning us) is a standard element in the progressive/academic process.
Ah, it’s the same Leftist tripe that they have been saying for years. He is another version of Zinn.
Man, are you gonna get raked over the coals. Every leftist website will lift your comment and hold it up as àn example of volence-prone Trump supports. I pity you. Your life is about to become a living nightmare./s
What?
I don’t study Garbage Cans to totally
Understand What comes Out of them!
Can I quote Myself??
