WPXI ^ | November 8, 2019

GALLITZIN, Pa. - A homework assignment at a Cambria County middle school involving President Donald Trump had some parents upset Wednesday.

The assignment that was sent home from a teacher at Penn Cambria asked students to pretend they were refugees as the president tried "to take control of the United States" as "there are fights in the streets."

Students were asked to have a parent time them for 10 minutes as they packed their bags, in the belief that they will never return to their home.

Wow. So, that’s an indoctrination camp, not a normal school assignment.

The liberals have taken over the school system and now they are indoctrinating the children by scare tactics. This is so sad!

They really are out of contact with reality. They have created a false image of Trump, and are now believing their fabrication.

A lot of what I learned about modern liberalism, I learned from experience with teachers’ union goon tactics years back.

Apology will not be enough. Teacher must be fired.

Public school teachers are some of the dumbest, laziest excuses for humanity you'll ever find. The insult, "Those who can't, teach", has never been truer than now.

The field attracts stupid people because they simply have to be smarter than the people they teach. And it attracts lazy people because the college coursework is pure gravy.

And the teacher's assignment in the OP? It's the result of eating up time that the teacher would otherwise have to use to lecture, which requires prep, which requires work.

So, they resort to busy work to occupy student's time.

Tell the teacher “We instead explained what you are, and designed a communication plan to get as many angry parents as possible to overtake the school and remove their children from your indoctrination camp, followed by submission of class action lawsuits for child abuse.”

This type of abuse is nothing short of brainwashing.
What are these people hoping to achieve ?

Educating a generation to break laws, distrust & fight authority, attack those with whom they disagree.

Yep, this’ll work out just fine.

When it comes right down to it, sometimes these people should be just taken outside and shot.

Imagine you’re a middle-class Ukrainian resident of the Crimea. Suddenly, Russian artillery is shelling the city ...

Imagine you’re a middle-class Christian resident of Mosul. Suddenly, ISIS jihadists mark your door with an N and tell you to get out in 24 hours or profess Allah and his prophet ...

It’s time to officially and legally recognize the Liberal communism as a psychological cult and religious doctrine. Then just as Christianity is not allowed in public schools, neither can this cult be allowed.

And it is, and it qualifies as such by very definition.
