“Don’t forget 9/11 is National Day Of Service
we are supposed to volunteer that day-”

Could you imagine Muslims seeing this? Edward Longshanks (the English king in “Braveheart”) didn’t want to send his son to treat with William Wallace because “the mere sight of him would encourage an enemy to revolt”; could you imagine what message this sends to those who would attack us?

On a non-9/11 note, I think it is disturbing how there is a push to “require volunteering” for high schoolers to graduate (apparently those pushing the program don’t see the irnoy in that). Apparently working for wages shouldn’t suffice to be a formative experience for high school students...

OT on volunteering...

If you have kids who are “required” to “volunteer” try to get volunteer work for your church or synagogue to count for this requirement. Some school administrators will applaud you because they dislike the requirement, too. The far left will be pained by this because it meets the requirement, but doesn’t fit with their atheist sensibilities. Some may disallow it. If so, try to find some other volunteer activity that they dislike, maybe a pro-life charity.
