My Underground High School Newspaper
http://rightstuffnews.com ^

Posted on 12/11/2003 5:24:52 PM PST by Right Stuff News

I go to public school in Evanston, a place that is about as "conservative" as SF. There is a big protest mentality there; around the beginning of the Iraq war, the administrators excused students from their classes for "walking out" and marching against the war. I started a newspaper this year to show underclassmen that the rightist viewpoint is rational and not evil. Tell me what you guys think.

The Right Stuff

Yah, the name is a horrible pun

I suggest that you contact Craig J. Cantoni. He's a conservative/small 'L' libertarian writer who I find to be excellent. He writes about 2 to 3 columns a week and distributes them in various way on the Internet and has a regular column in the Arizona Republic newspaper. I regularly publish his columns on my Republican club's website. I'm sure he'd be happy to give you permission to reprint his columns and would probably even email them to you. I get his embargoed stuff weeks before publication via email.

You guys give me hope for the future. Would that your style of teen angst and rebellion would spread.

Great Job! Keep up the good work.

If the school Admins try to censor you, here's some links to Legal organizations that love to take on schools who try to limit First Amendment rights of conservatives:

American Center for Law & Justice

Thomas More Law Center

The Rutherford Institute

Leftists can't stand to be criticized - truth and reason to them is like sunlight to vampires .

I couldn't disagree more.
Truth and reason have no effect on leftists.
It MAY have an effect on fencesitters.
The jury is still out on that.

great job RSN...

alotta the positions of the left sound kewl, sound compassionate, which make them attractive to the youth in search of "hipness"... but close investigation of the left's means and the results of their seriously flawed ideals leads any rational mind to the obvious conclusion that these guys are whacked...

try to reach those that still have activity inside their skulls... the braindead are unreachable...

If you observe the reaction of leftists to attempts to counter them with truth and reason, it usually consists of shrill denunciations and ad-hominem attacks. Hence the vampire analogy.

"I started a newspaper this year to show underclassmen that the rightist viewpoint is rational and not evil."

Is it working?
