WASHINGTON - It was only a matter of time before kids started picking up the aggressive, divisive language that’s become a hallmark of the 2016 presidential campaign.

According to a new report by the nonprofit Southern Poverty Law Center titled “The Trump Effect: The Impact of the Presidential Campaign on our Nation’s Schools,” the race is stoking fears and racial tensions in America’s classrooms.

“My students are terrified of Donald Trump. They think that if he’s elected, all black people will get sent back to Africa,” one middle school teacher told the SPLC. The teacher was one of more than 2,000 educators who opted to take a survey conducted through the SPLC’s “Teaching Tolerance” program.

“I have had Muslim students called terrorists,” said another teacher who submitted comments to the survey.

“There is a boy from Mexico, who is a citizen, who is terrified that the country will deport him if Trump wins,” wrote a third teacher. “He is also scared that kids and grown-ups can and will hurt him.”

Huh, most of the white kids in my daughter’s school have been bullied into political silence by anti-Trump minorities/teachers.

This is a public school teacher who is paid with our tax dollars. This is someone who is poisoning the minds of young people.

Locally some idiot spray painted some insulting graffiti on the back door of a grocery store owned by a Mexican family.

The local media is pimping the line that this was all Trump’s Fault.

The world is spinning into madness. The center cannot hold.

We need another Moral Re-armament in reparation for our offenses toward the moral order.

Trump only wants to deport Illegal Mexicans-—and that is the present law (but not enforced) Trump never said he would send Blacks back to Africa—but Lincoln did. Liberal teachers are fueling this stuff.

Well, how the hell do they get that stupid idea?!? I’m sure she does her best to educate them on the truth, rather than proceed in their mass idiocy.

one easy way to make a difference is to use he word bully over and over.

by uttering the word, self esteem can be raised in the certaain knowledge that a difference was made

The Trump Effect: those that have been bullied into silence take heart from what Trump is saying and planning for the country to pry it loose from evil forces & start speaking up & fighting back and refuse to take the Left’s bullying lying down any more. The Left then calls anything that is not total capitulation to their will “hatred, fear and bullying” when that is, in fact, what THEY do all the time.

When you use a bully boy hate group to call out bullying and hate it sort of make you a hypocrite!
