Once “locked” in their prison/schools ALL of their First Amendment rights are violated as well.

1) They are told to shut up for most of the day.

2) They are ordered by the state to associate only with people of the state’s choosing.

3) They can not publish freely.

4) They are forbidden to express their religion during their school prison time.

5) They are subjected to the government sponsored religion of Secular Humanism. Since there is no such thing as a religiously neutral education, the government WILL establish the religion of some and destroy the religion of others.

If the parent or child objects, armed police will force attendance, remove the child to foster care, or imprison the parents or child.

If a citizen refuses to pay for this abomination, he will have his home or business sold at sheriffs action.

That is a cogent exegesis of the current state of the public education establishment. Great post.

Here is a similar syllogism which I wrote as a post to an article describing the sexploitation of white British girls by Muslim boys of color:

Let's see how left-wing statism works:

1) the state uses its near monopoly of physical power to force you to send your kids to places of indoctrination called, "schools."

2) the state, for reasons of political correctness involving race and religion, fails to protect your children in these places of indoctrination.

3) the state, again for reasons of political correctness involving race and religion, secures for itself a monopoly of the right to use force to protect children and prohibits you from acting directly to protect your children either in or out of school.

4) the state, in response to your complaints that your children are being exploited because the state has failed in spite of its monopoly of power to protect them, replies that to protect your children would cause politically inconvenient and incorrect race and religious problems.

5) if you complain loudly enough or in the wrong venues, and you will be called a racist or a bigot.

6) the state renders racism and bigotry into hate crimes laws criminalizing the complainers.

6) since the state identifies what is "correct" politically, at least partially, according to one's racial status, the state applies the rules invidiously among its citizens according to their color.

7) if you are of the correct color, the state is loathe to prosecution you for your crimes.

8) if you are of the wrong color, the state has effectively left you defenseless against crimes committed by people of the "correct" color.

9) if you resort to self-help for your own protection under these circumstances, or for the protection of your children, you are liable to prosecution.

10) since the state has abandoned God-given inalienable rights, natural rights, and even individual rights in exchange for group identity rights's as the rationale for governance, it is incapable of ameliorating the social consequences of its political philosophy and governing justly.

11) having monopolized power, denuded its citizens, set one tribe against the other, the state finds itself choosing between (dis)integration or ruthless suppression.
