If public education were a car, would you buy it?

But that’s a silly question, because they force you to buy it whether you want it or not, whether you use it or not.

‘Public Education’ as a Car: A Parable  

We are getting a raw deal. Our country is “educating” itself to death. I don’t mean that as a figure of speech.

Look at our government. We Americans must be the biggest suckers ever to walk the earth.

 

It’s Filth–and Why Do You Stand For It?

Pride Puppy! by Robin Stevenson | Goodreads

Disgusting! And they serve it up to 3- and 4-year-olds,

Do public schools have the authority to “influence” children?

The U.S. Supreme Court this week heard a case involving the Montgomery Co. schools, Maryland–where children as young as three or four years old are “taught” aberrant sexual themes and no opt-out is allowed (https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/columnist/2025/04/22/supreme-court-childrens-books-lgbtq-issues-parents-rights/82977579007/). A ruling is expected any day now.

Why do we need the Supreme Court, or any court, to tell us how to rear our children? And for that matter, why in the world do we need what they laughingly call “public education”?

Why aren’t parents angry? Why do they continue to send their children to be “educated” by having filth poured into their ears by perverts and wackos from the teachers’ unions?

People! All you need to do is pull your kids out of these schools. They aren’t going to put everybody in jail, are they–for the crime of being a parent? And for heaven’s sake, get rid of the school board members who permit this! You can vote them out, you know.

And pray that President Trump and Secretary McMahon succeed in their quest to abolish the federal Dept. of Education.

And after that, erase the state departments of education. Get the government OUT of education.

From the schoolhouse to the Big House…

Crikey, this was in a public high school over twenty-five years ago. I wonder how much better things have gotten since then [laughs hysterically].

Kids who wanted to be jailbirds when they grew up…

An Unpleasant Memory

School teachers and administrators knew what was going on and did absolutely jack nothing about it. Didn’t lift a finger.

Did the parents know?

All I can say is, mine would’ve.

‘Genderqueer Witch’–in Public School?

Happy Puppy Stock Photos, Images and Backgrounds for Free ...

I don’t want to post a picture of a “genderqueer witch.” This is not a public school. Here’s a nice puppy instead.

Why does anybody send children to public school anymore? Answer the question and win a tinfoil hat.

The state of Pennsylvania is investigating Superintendent John Sanville, of the Unionville-Chadds Ford school district, for bringing in a self-proclaimed “genderqueer witch”–whatever the dickens that is–to address the freshman class and hand out “sex-themed surveys” (https://www.dailywire.com/news/pennsylvania-launches-investigation-into-superintendent-after-genderqueer-witch-presentation-on-sexual-topics?topStoryPosition=4).

When questioned by parents, school administrators stonewalled their inquiries. Of course. That’s what they always do.

Well, at least they’re investigating it. Be on the lookout for several gallons of whitewash.

Public education is broken, and can’t–and won’t–be fixed.

Pull your children out of there.

Rutgers Prez Flees Pro-Hamas Protest Crowd

On Thursday, a group of pro-Hamas students disrupted a town hall at  @rutgersu, protesting President Holloway’s pledge not to adopt BDS and  chanting for violence against Jews. Holloway and other ...

Ah, Rutgers University! My alma mater. Something to be ashamed of.

Rutgers President Jonathan Holloway, along with several other “university officials,” last week high-tailed it out of a town hall (oh, please) when Pro-Hamas protesters got out of hand. Jewish students were left with only police to protect them (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/rutgers-president-flees-town-hall-event-where-pro/).

The wingding was organized, if that’s the word for it, by the Rutgers Student Assembly. It soon degenerated into loud calls for the “annihilation” of Israel. And the university president ran away.

I wonder what they would’ve talked about if anyone had had any interest in talking.

Rutgers has always been wrong. When I was a student there, class of ’71, it was all “Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh, NLF is gonna win!” Down with ROTC. Bomb threats closing down the halls in finals week.

So now it’s hooray for Hamas, wipe out Israel… and the damnfool liberals who fed and nurtured it don’t know what the hell to do. Welcome to Dr. Frankenstein’s Dilemma: you activate the monster, but you can’t control it.

Democrats in the driver’s seat: this is what we get for that.

 

Teachers Hung Out to Dry

Price of admission: whatever integrity you have left.

Two classroom teachers have sued a California school district for banning them from their classrooms and depriving them of their Constitutional rights (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/12/school-goes-ballistic-when-teachers-take-stand-real/). The district has ignored an earlier court order to reinstate them.

Because so few people know how to write a news story anymore, you have to read all the way to the end before you find out what the story is about. Why were the teachers not permitted to return to their classrooms?

To quote the article, way down at the bottom of the story, the teachers “got into trouble with administrators for being on the wrong side of Joe Biden’s promotion of transgenderism.”

So now they’re suing the school district. They are represented by the Thomas More Legal Foundation.

But here’s the point: If you don’t want your children herded into “transgender” by Far Left crazy teachers, by all that’s holy, take them out of public school!

We don’t care anymore why they’re in love with transgender. We only want it to stop. But it won’t stop unless the “educators” are brought to heel.

Good Guys Win Again–In California!

Choosing a Bird Feeder | Audubon New York

I won’t post pictures of this garbage. Here’s a nice goldfinch instead. (Time to feed the birds!)

If it can be done in California, it can be done anywhere.

All hail dogged, determined parents who would NOT allow their children’s online lessons to be tainted with LGBT propaganda! All hail Mass Resistance (massresistance.org), who provided moral and practical support!

All the smutty toxic sex books were finally removed from the online libraries of California Virtual Academics (https://www.massresistance.org/docs/gen4/23d/CA-parents-force-out-LGBT-books/index.html)–and now they’re trying to find out who brought them into CVA’s library in the first place.

[Look, I find the pictures of this material offensive and disgusting and would rather not post them here. You can see some of them in the Mass Resistance report (click the link above.]

Once again we have to ask: Why does anyone want to steer young children into aberrant sexuality? Are there that many practicing perverts in our education system?

And again we ask this: What finally has to happen before you remove your children from all forms of public school and educate them at home? What will that final insult be? And for how long can we put off taking decisive action?

Parents shouldn’t have to struggle up a corporate ladder, fighting battles at each step, to confront the top villains and by some miracle convince them to stop molesting their children. We are thankful to those who kept at it until they did it.

But really, pulling the children out of public school altogether is the most meaningful and effective action we can take.

‘Satan’s Not An Evil Guy’—?

[Thanks to Susan for the appalling nooze tip.]

Does your child’s school have an “After-school Satan Club”? Not yet… but this is happening in public schools here and there throughout the country, so don’t be too surprised if your child’s school is next.

Here’s a commercial produced for the After-school Satan Club. “Satan’s Not an Evil Guy.” Oh, heck no. Satan is for “Science”! Oh, yeah–science. And “Truth.” Courtesy of the father of lies. And don’t forget “Fun”! Satan brings kids “fun.”

And see, it’s all just fine because, after all, Satan isn’t real, he’s just an Imaginary Friend who’ll teach us how to live. “And by the way, there is no Hell.” So you don’t have to worry about going there–so just do whatever floats your boat.

Are you okay with this? It’s public education. Teachers’ unions. CRT and “gender reassignment.” Fundamental transformation of America. Honk if you’re on board.

Please remove your kids from public education.

What else can I say?

They Want Your Kids to Eat Bugs

Fill in the blank and win a tin foil hat! I keep on sending my kids to public schools because________.

And don’t ever think your school is a safe place for your kids because you live in a Red state–Utah, for instance. The same teachers’ unions, the same teachers’ colleges, the same Far Left wackos own public education in all 50 states.

In a Utah middle school this week, the, um, “teacher” got her kids to eat bugs (https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/03/utah_kids_told_to_eat_bugs_to_save_the_earth_and_get_class_credit.html). Why? ‘Cause it’ll Save The Planet! And teacher will give you extra credit! And if you won’t do it… well, go ahead, make their day.

After chowing down on creepy-crawlies, Teacher had the kids write essays about why it’s so good to eat bugs. She told them what to write. All children were required to endorse bug-eating–no other opinion allowed.

Well, you’ve got to admit they’re learning something. “Welcome to your course in How To Knuckle Under To A Dictator!”

Is this more than just disgusting? Is it evil and perverse?

That’s public education!
