Bidwell Junior High School administrators said a letter sent home with students in an eighth-grade class Tuesday was a good idea for a history lesson, with bad execution.
The letter, which appeared to ask parents to renounce their U.S. citizenship, prompted phone calls to the school from several irate recipients.
He concluded the letter with "After careful consideration of the facts of our current situation, I have decided to announce to everyone that I am no longer a citizen of the United States, but a free and independent member of the global community."
"The point was, I wanted to ask parents if they would sign such a letter if conditions that existed prior to the Revolution were happening now,"...
Parsley said Brooks sent the letter out with no explanation or disclaimer, and was relying on students to tell their parents it was part of a lesson plan.
She said several parents reacted adversely to the letter, but a few sent them back signed.
Chico resident Michael Hill said he was told by his daughter, Kaytlen Hill, 13, that the assignment was to have parents sign the letter and return it to class Wednesday.
"The lesson being taught in class was that the U.S. kidnaps innocent people and takes them to Cuba, where they are kept indefinitely and tortured," Hill said he learned through his daughter.
When Hill asked her if Brooks mentioned Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where the U.S. imprisons terrorist suspects, he said his daughter replied "yes."
He said his daughter broke into tears when she talked about Brooks mentioning illegal wiretaps and other surveillance directed against innocent people.
"I think I was more irritated by the classroom discussion than the letter,"
Principal Joanne Parsley said she doesn't believe Brooks has any political agenda to advance.

I did fire at will, heh, heh!
Thanks!

It wouldn’t surprise me a bit if this teacher were either a DUmmie or a KOmmie. Would like to know what his screen name is.
I keep the link to the original 1999 FR thread on my About Page.
In that case, his ass should be fired and he should be deported fom the U.S. to the global community.
Where do shits like this come from?
Back when I was going to school we did not have this, in fact, a lot of them were WWII and Korean War veterans.
“.....Principal Joanne Parsley said she doesn’t believe Brooks has any political agenda to advance.”
If she read the letter and believes what she said, then she is, in my opinion, too stupid to function in society.
Since there is a signed statement denouncing his citizenship, does that not mean he is now here illegally, the school has violated federal law in having him employed, and do we get to deport him to the country of our choice?
***”The point was, I wanted to ask parents if they would sign such a letter if conditions that existed prior to the Revolution were happening now,”... This is a lie, because the founders did not declare themselves members of a “global community” (an oxymoron if ever there was one) But rather they declared a new nation.***
Agreed! Sounds like an excuse to weasel out of trouble.
deport him to lovely North Korea
I had my blood pressure under control this morning prior to reading this post. Is 800 over 675 normal?
I sent my 2 cents to the principal. Thanks for the link.
Nothing to play with. Minimum Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3) enviroment.
"The point was, I wanted to ask parents if they would sign such a letter if conditions that existed prior to the Revolution were happening now,"...
What horse manure !
The conditions that existed prior to the American Revolution was not a state of being "...a free and independent member of the global community."
You were a subject to a king or to a nation state, you were neither totally free or independent. There was no global community to be part of
If this was his true intent, to teach this lesson rather than preach an ideology, he should be reassigned to teach another subject because comparative history is beyond his ability to teach
Thanks

Parsley is either ignorant or a liar.
My choice is liar.
Perhaps adults in her district will do what they can to make sure Farsley is fired and banned from influencing children.
As for the "teacher", Brooks should definitely be canned..........and caned.
Thanks.

“Then she is the dumbest person on the face of the earth.”
That’s why she’s the principal.
Well said and God bless you!
