My daughter's room mate at the University of Cincinnati is an english major. She is working as a teaching graduate assistant this semester and is ready to leave school after only a three days. She received a list of what she is supposed to do in class including teaching Christians to be more open minded in their thoughts about others. The list goes on and on with a 110% PC agenda and we wonder why our younger generation is so liberal.

Teachers are figures of authority and with this agenda what is to be expected? Doug Phillips, son of 2000 presidential candidate Howard Phillips, calls universities Babylon and we sure know why.

Blissninny policies like this are why I plan to home-school my children. Recreational shooting and hunting will be included in the curriculum.

Our school has strict guidelines for the published senior picture. I am not sure it is just anti-gun in this case. My daughter had a specific picture taken for the yearbook. Her picture with her pickup and the one with her dirt bike and helmet were for family and friends, the other more formal.

Londonderry and Derry are two separate towns.

Dollars to doughnuts, most of the people involved on the school side are transplanted Massholes from the Merimack Valley.

My daughters best friend had her yearbook picture taken as she posed with her rifle.A 22cal used in shooting matches!
Thank GOD I live in Indiana!

So that state motto is just for show, some sort of misunderstood relic of the past?

Not if people like Penny Dean, myself, and a goodly number of the members of the Statehouse have anything to say about it, which we do.

The state motto is now "better red than dead".

No need to feel dense at all, I was air defense in the army and when I was ordered to let two missles fly the command was given "ripple two". so when you double posted that suddenly came to mind. It is probably one of the more obscure refrences you'll ever see. Sorry if I threw you for a loop;-)

In my 1979 HS yearbook there is a picture of the acting club (or whatever it was that put on plays). The group is sitting and standing posing for the camera (not in an acting setting). One guy is pointing a .357 revolver at one of the other guys. It was used in one of the plays. It was real - his dad's.

(I brought my dad's shotgun to school for show-and-tell in kindergarden - of course my mom brought it in the car with her.)
