“I’m not going to tell you what to think, I just want to help you think,”
That is a high crime in the leftist world.
What’s the problem? As long as the schools are ‘free’, I’ll keep sending my kids there!
Sounded totally appropriate and unbiased to me. Simply challenged the students to think instead of the liberal tactic of telling students what to think.
He’s guilty of both wrong speak and a thought crime. The result should be re-education, failing that the final solution.
Whatever caused his suspension needs to be reviewed.
He wants to challenge the children to the possibility of censorship and then is censored. Probably the best lesson those kids will ever learn.
Because schools are actually government organizations, this might actually verge into legit First Amendment violation territory.
America, no longer the free....
A little time in Room 101 and he'll decide that he really loves Big Brother.
Great. I said something similar to my students this week. Been nice knowing everyone.
The principal said a viewpoint that us conservatives would agree with.
However this type of information shouldn’t be coming from public schools in my opinion .
We all know the vast majority of this type of messaging is far left .
Stick to science, math and English .
Principal Thorne asked the young people to consider what happens when other groups filter and decide what you can hear and know about.
“There have been times even in American history when a small group of people decided what you can hear,” he said. “Think about totalitarian government. Think about North Korea. Think about China. What makes those types of systems possible is the restriction and elimination of the free exchange of ideas.”

...and then the principal was disappeared, proving the point.
If all the parents got involved. Swapped out the school board and fired the school superintendent this wouldn’t happen
The left is making a strategic mistake. They are waking people to their thought-tyranny.
After years of “tolerance preaching” they will create their own “little bubble” as they push people out.
Remember, they are not the majority in this country. Trump really did win. They will continue to diminish because their ideas destroy.
Gab CEO reports that he’s receiving “thousands” of resumes from people working in Silicon valley. They’re fed up with Twitter, Facebook, etc
The Commucrats: All your children are belong to us.”
I guess they taught that cracker a lesson.
This is exactly the type of clamping down on free speech in schools that’s been going on for the past decade or so. The further left the libtards in charge of the schools are, the greater the hypocrisy.
“What happens when the marketplace of ideas becomes a forced monopoly? What happens when you do not have dissenting opinions, when you do not have an exchange of competing ideas?”
Who could find this objectionable?
Orwellian
