The response of the 11th grader is simply awesome. Must go to AJC website (follow URL) to view the graphic. Will be printed in the Saturday, Dec. 31 AJC. (supposedly)

This 11th grader has more common sense than 80% of the readership of the AJC.

Great response! On the AJC site, the comments in response to the 11th grader's drawing are posted; some are very touching, and some are truly, laughably stupid.

This 11th grader has more common sense than 80% of the readership of the AJC. And that loon who keeps asking "What noble cause, George?"

I hope this awesome child is allowed to graduate.
Independent, conservative thought like this is not tolerated in the DNC's Public Indoctrination Centers (Schools).

As a long time Atlantan, I cannot convey to all of you the disdain I have for the AJC editorial board and Suckovich, the cartoonist.

"...I see a whole army of my countrymen, here, in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?"
"Against that? No, we'll run, and we'll live."
"Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade all the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take away our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!"

9/11 was a pivotal event in childrens life.
They will remember it the way many in out age group will remember the Kennedy Assisination.
Their B/S indoctrination is not likely to take hold.
