I think you're correct, Riverman, we are schooling in many instances a very "Jerry Springer" culture. The kids are living hellish lives and possibly someone wants to make them less cruel by signs such as these. However, a big lie doesn't erase a bad home life. A mean look is a mean look, NOT violence. But the point of the article is that this is how the extreme left is litle by little attacking our rights. The words 2nd Amendment is being linked to violence, NOT self-protection and hunting. Can't make their point with conservative adults, they seek to recondition our children. They care not about what these children really need. Many times actions such as these are dismissed as trivial and no big deal. I believe they are of much greater consequence than is seen at first glance. How do you tear down a nation without guns?

My goal when I am out in the schools is to teach children HOW to think,not WHAT to think.Yes,the Left has no doubt been guilty of a lot of indoctrination but even in college I was a crtical thinker who tried not to be restrained by ideology.
I am in full support of the Second Amendment,BTW,tho I feel it is a good idea if felons,juveniles and mental patients not be allowed to have firearms.I think it is also a great idea to give gun safety and proper use lessons to all novice gun owners who are law abiding citizens.
An aside to this issue-I work around mostly blue collar blacks in a large government agancy notoious for its inefficiency-oops,did I give it away?-Anyway,almost all of them have guns.I think it is the phony limousine liberals who are behind the gun control movement.
As for Jerry Spinger,how did he ever get elected mayor of Cincinatti?That is absolutely bizarre.
