Sure, by teaching that those of all races should be treated equally and given equally opportunities to make something of themselves. But that fits so many modern citizens’ definition of racism that maybe it is impossible.

A man drives up to the local golf course looking to play 18 holes of golf. He walks up to the clerk manning the pro shop and tells him that he wants to play 18 holes and hire a caddy. The clerk tells the man that he can give him the 18 holes, but no caddies were available. However, the clerk tells the man that he just got in some new robot caddies and if he is willing to test one out he can play the 18 holes for free. The man is more than happy to test the robot out for a free round so he agrees.

He reaches the first tee pulls out a nine iron and gets ready to take a swing. The robot interrupts the man and tells him to use a driver instead. The man does as instructed and hits the ball within inches of the whole. This goes on from hole to hole and the man plays the best round of golf in his life.

The man returns the robot to the pro shop and the clerk asks him how it went. He tells the clerk that the caddy was amazing and he’ll be back next week to play again.

Well next week comes around and the man heads back to the golf course. He tells the clerk that he wants to play another round with the robot caddy. The clerk tells the man that they had to get rid of the robots because of customer complaints. The man is shocked as he thought the robot was amazing, but the clerk tells the man that the silver robots created a glare in the sun, which blinded the other golfers. The man then asks why the clerk did not just paint them black. The clerks says that they tried that, but after painting the robots black three didn’t show up for work, two tried to rob the pro shop and one thought it was president of the United States.

What this is doing is attempting to further divide our country, not unite it. What a surprise. No freaking way. No wonder we homeschooled.

It takes a liberal to really complicate things. You can see that lots of effort went into this program, too bad its not ptoducing learning like the parents paid a pretty penny to get.

No, but it can be STARTED by the third grade..

All this race shit makes kids think about it. No third grader cares what their playmates look like.. Until someone plans the idea in their heads.

None of his classmates liked him because of his stupidity and clumsiness, especially his teacher, who was always yelling at him, "You're driving me mad, Tyrone."

One day Tyrone's mom came to school to check on how he was doing. The teacher told his mom honestly, that her son was simply a disaster, getting very low marks, and that she had never had she seen such a stupid boy in her entire teaching career. The mom was shocked at the feedback and withdrew her son from school and moved out of Detroit, relocating to Cleveland.

25 years later, the teacher was diagnosed with an almost incurable cardiac disease. All the doctors strongly advised her to have heart surgery, which only one surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic could perform. Left with no other options, the teacher decided to have the operation, which was successful.

When she opened her eyes after the surgery she saw a handsome young doctor smiling down at her. She wanted to thank him, but could not talk. Her face started to turn blue, she raised her hand, trying to tell him something but quickly died.

The doctor was shocked, wondering what went wrong so suddenly.

Then he turned around and saw our friend Tyrone, a janitor in the Clinic, who had unplugged the life-support equipment in order to connect his vacuum cleaner.

Don't tell me you thought Tyrone became a heart-surgeon! Well maybe you did if you voted for Obama.

No, the more they talk about racism the more there will be.
All the little tykes will be made hyper-sensitive and overreact to every little slight.

Can racism be Stopped in the third grade?

Sure, if you make lobotomies mandatory for all third graders.

If human beings continue to perceive - in their real lives - racial groups acting according to predictable patterns, no amount of “education” will be able to overcome what we see with our lying eyes.

We had made great strides in race relations in this country before Obama was elected. He, his close friend Al Sharpton, and his Justice Dept. have worked 24/7 to divide this country and stir up racial tensions.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Excellent caption!

That only WHITE folks can be “racist” is pure garbage. White have been the most accepting group of people to blacks, mexicans, asians, arabs and whoever else for the past half-century as is evidenced by the large population movements into our own countries.

If these groups move into our country, it’s “immigration”.
If whites move into other countries, it’s genocide and invasion.

This will all eventually right itself out again soon anyways. Nothing like a major stock market crash and jobless hundreds of millions to send ‘em back to where they came from.
