Portland public schools ban textbooks that cast doubt on climate change | Fox News
The Portland Public Schools board voted last week to ban any materials that cast doubt on climate change, the Portland Tribune reported.

One super scary city though I have been there many times.
If a house is destroyed by fire, it must be replaced by an apartment building. Per agenda 21.

Well, it’s Portland. By the way, it’s the Whitest major city in America (with a population over 500,000 people).
I think the only blacks in Portland are the guys who play for the Trail Blazers.
In 1942, MGM produced a short film TRAVELTALKS about Glacier and Waterton National Parks. The narrator stated that the glaciers have been receeding since the last ice age and....”If NO CLIMATIC CHANGE occurs, they will be gone in a thousand years.”
That was SEVENTY FOUR years ago, well before the glo=bull warming nonsense.

“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear." - Harry Truman
One more reason to vote for Donald Trump.

Sure. They burned ‘witches’ in Salem.
Nobody is disputing that climates change. Many are disputing how and why.
Now the children are being taught NOT to ask ‘how’ & ‘why’.
