Let's explore that. What if, say a public school system decided to teach Islam? Would you be okay with that?

You sound all mixed up, which is understandable if you take your orders from government. Is this the person you admire and who started America on a better path?

So, you’re going to accept the bloviating of someone who is trying to turn a buck by selling his book?

There is no question that a lot of books have valuable information. I also think that nobody makes books free of charge, like liberal Utopians would like to think.

Fall,1959....

Mr Farrell picks up this huge eraser and hurls it full force,smacking Mickey in the upper chest and enveloping him in a cloud of chalk dust.

LOL. Reminds me of 1975. Seventh grade, Catholic school. The nun who taught English had a great pitching arm. When she turned to write something on the blackboard, one boy whispered to his friend sitting next to him. Sister pivoted and pitched the eraser, which hit one boy in the head, bounced off and hit the boy he talked to. Everyone fell silent. Sister continued with the lesson as if nothing had happened.

True story. You didn't mess with the nuns. ;-)

I’ve read his book. Have you?

If jumping to conclusions and impugning people’s motives on no evidence is what you are teaching in government schools, then you are providing just one more argument for their abolition—besides the fact that they are socialist enterprises invading a territory where government has no legitimate function.

Since I heard the story about the Florida prom, I have read several stories about the disintegrating Hispanic family, the higher than Black teen pregnancy rate, Mexican gangs (in Mexico) supposedly mimicking US gangs (although, I don’t think that they needed any help on that one)and the single mother families. I remember reading that it used to be part of the culture that the Hispanic men put their wives on a pedestal, that they honored them, but cheated on them regularly with a different type of woman.
