And BTW, McCain and his supporters are also radically to left. so were all of our candidates except for Congressman Hunter. The truth is that there are very few conservatives alive now. Iran continues to build nuclear weapons, while we appease it for the sake of products from our communist slaves in China and elsewhere (freight fuel prices, the dollar,...)—slaves who will probably pull the rug out from under us before long.
This was a state court...a federal appeal will overturn it quickly. Sounds like a judge in the pocket of the unions, again.
It was pointed out to you on another thread, and I will reiterate again for you.
If abuse is the problem, then deal with the abuse.
This judge’s ruling was entirely directed at HOMESCHOOLING and this is completely inappropriate.
In 1933 the Jews in Germany didn’t have the informational weapons available to us now.
If the DummKooks can Google-Earth the VP’s house, we can d@mned well do the same to their own minions and nobody but nobody gets to function in a vacumm anymore.
This is a crock. At the least if the govt requires your kids to attend a public or private school and no homeschooling, they should pay for it. Vouchers for those choosing to attend private schools equal to at least what it costs per student for public schools. Break the darn union.
How do you deal with the compulsory attendance laws?
This looks like it could be an update. If not, sorry for the extra ping but this situation is really worth keeping an eye on. I'd hate to miss something new.
This whole thing could be a red herring.
Don’t judges in Kalifornia have to run for election???
Organize and remember that revenge is a dish best served cold.
There is an option if this get upheld by the state Supreme Court- move away. A whole lot of former Californians have already done this.
Not if you want to indoctrinate children into the joys of communism.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
True, but we are not friendless, HSLDA, ACLU, PJI, etc.
I'd leave my state rather than put my boys back in public schools.
One HS mom I know isn’t a Christian and told me she didn’t belong to HSDLDA because she didn’t agree with their religious and socially conservative beliefs. I thought, but didn’t say, how short-sighted is that!!
I'm not sure quite why you're taking such a nasty tone. It seems we agree.
If you'll read my post again, I said
That said, it looks as though the court was worried about a lack of an external support system for these children in case of abuse, and has tarred all homeschoolers with the same brush.
Most people with decent reading comprehension would understand that I was saying that the judge, rather than acting to protect these specific children, instead acted against all homeschoolers.
Quite likely since the reporting isn't even accurate.
Great. Do you see this ruling as a threat to your current situation?
One of the strengths homeschoolers have is that most people who don't homeschool are unaware of how organized and networked homeschoolers are. An anti-homeschooling NJ assemblywoman got a nasty surprise when she tried to pull a fast one on the last day of the legislative session. Families overflowed the parking lot, swarmed over the statehouse . . . Her bill did not pass.
