Even on Fox, the whole article is how threatening and unnecessary the carrying of firearms is.

But the last paragraph is worth the whole article:

“Zach said he’s not paranoid or a radical.”

“If I was an extremist, our founding fathers would all be extremists,” he said. “Without them, we wouldn’t have our independence. We’d be a disarmed British system of feudal subjectivity.”

Those kids have it exactly right. They are properly being raised. Indeed, our Founders were radicals for Liberty. I doubt most public schooling even mentions them in a positive light.

One more example of why I love Idaho...and homeschoolers! :-)

I know, sorry about that  :-(  But I think that it could have been a lot worse....at least the basics of the information got out, despite it being an AP story.

But the last paragraph is worth the whole article:

“If I was an extremist, our founding fathers would all be extremists,” he said. “Without them, we wouldn’t have our independence. We’d be a disarmed British system of feudal subjectivity.”

Agreed...I'm glad that one slipped by the PC watchdogs at the AP  :-)
