"A teacher at Northeast Middle School in Bristol, Connecticut, invited a Muslim woman to speak this month to her social studies class about Islam, as part of the school's curriculum covering world religions."

She was most likely trying to shove Islam down her students' throats and the parents weren't having it.

Good for them.

What’s happened to free speech is truly tragic but it has to apply equally. If we can’t have ours, you can’t have yours.

Just show the kids video from 9/11.

Explain that it shows the heart and soul of Islam. The real face of Islam.

Well, it’s about time!!! Two can play this game and it’s way past time that “our side” played by THEIR rules! BRAVO for the parents. Now it needs to catch on nationwide with the “tours” to mosques, school kids dressing in “their” garb etc. Make it end now!

Islam, however, somehow gets an exemption.

Exempt us or we'll kill you.

What was intended to be an educational presentation about Islam turned into a controversy when threatening comments prompted school officials to cancel the event.

Happens all across the country at colleges and universities to conservative speakers. Except the "media" refer those cancellations to "complaints" instead of threats.

Liberals KNOW Islam is not a religion but a socio-political construct designed to enslave and destroy minds and steal souls ... hence the reason Liberals have no problem with Islam.

From the article:Islam is NOT a religion. It is an evil cult invented by a child pederast that believed women are less than human.

Was this to be followed by a priest who would explain Catholicism? Or a minister who would lecture on one of the Protestant faiths? How about a rabbi to educate the kiddies on Judaism? Maybe a guru or a Daoist or a Sikh?

Why is it always islime that needs to be "explained?" Or is "explained" just another word for "defended?"

We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone
All in all it’s just another brick in the wall
All in all you’re just another brick in the wall

What I like about this the most is that the presentation was shut down ‘due to threatening messages’.

It’s about time our side begins to physically threaten them too.
