Your posts are often like chocolate chip cookies...
...with little flecks of crap embedded within.
So much of what you post is good. But there's enough crap in it to make most people throw the whole mess in the garbage.
Fletcher J is wrong to make insinuations regarding the brief homeschooling of Mr. Lanza. But in that you've piggy-backed onto my post, let me make clear that no one should think that I wish to be associated with your lunatic rantings. You are the mirror image of some of the bird-brain anti-homeschoolers around here.

Seriously,....I reviewed my post to you. Just exactly was so inflammatory in this post?
As for the word, “prison”, that I used in the post, the thread is about how much government schools resemble prisons.
If you do not want me to respond to your posts for the remainder of this thread, I would be happy to do that. Beyond that you would need to remind me since I might forget any request that required long term action.
It is evident from you post that you know very well my philosophic standing regarding government schooling. I believe they oppress the freedom of conscience and First Amendment Rights of the student, parent, and taxpayer. Whether the outcomes of any government school are good, bad, ugly, or indifferent, they should be abolished because they crush the human spirit and endanger our nation’s continuing freedom.
If this is like chocolate chip cookies mixed with little flakes of scat, then you are complete free to avoid my posts. Unlike the government schools I have no police power to force you to read them.
sitetest, I guessed correctly that I’d get the old “no true Scotsman” defense... lol
After all, I’m sure that if Adam was a hero who stopped the attack, he’d be a “HOMESCHOOLER!”, right? With non-stop celebratory postings on the “another reason to homeschool” ping list? But since he was instead the lunatic murderer, Adam was really just a public school kid with “brief homeschooling”, not a “real” homeschooler. ;)
Since I didn’t actually blame homeschooling for the tragedy, I won’t apologize for my “insinuations”. I just couldn’t resist the petty pleasure in pointing that factual tidbit out to wintertime, to watch the mental gymnastics from a true obsessive. I support school choice and know & love lots of great homeschool families,
