Two weeks ago Thursday, I agreed to participate in the “Day of Defiance” on April 25, which is a counter protest to the now national “Day of Silence”. This “observance” takes place in many high schools around late April nationwide. I planned on reading redacted paragraphs from the Little Black Book. I made this public statement on the MassResistance radio program, pre-recorded on Thursday, April 18.
Teaching tolerance and inclusion in school is, of course, a good thing. But I wonder how many parents from Brookline High were shown copies of the pornographic Little Black Book by their kids returning from a “Tolerance” Saturday? At that age, I’d probably be too embarrassed and the LLB would find it’s rightful place in the trash before coming home.
I just received, a week after the event, the following email….
how about:
a Day For Normalcy ? or
a Day for Sanity or....
I read the entire post. It appears there were some serious misunderstanding among the organizers of the protest.
Solution: Abandon the government schools. Stop working to reform them but instead work to close all of them down permanently.
I wonder how many private schools observe “Day of Silence”. It is my guess that very few do, and, if they do, it is not FORCED by threat of police action on captive children.
Later read/pingout.
Yeah, that’s a shame. It’s a shame the homosexual agenda has people so scared of harrasment and lawsuits that people are scared to stand up to them. The thing is, it’s easy for them to go after a small group that stands up. We Christians and conservatives need to have large groups of people all over the country standing up to this ageda, especially in places of learning.
Those aren’t flyers. They are pages from a book.
And were given out to kids on a “Tolerance” day at school.
We must two things:
1) Abolish government schooling. We must deny a forum to the homosexuals, Marxist, and their useful idiots.
2) In other areas of our society, be ever alert to homosexual and Marxists ( leftist/socialist)attempts at destroying our nation.
Think you have some great ideas. The only problem I see with abolishing government schooling is, what about people who can’t afford to go to school?
A question which concerns me greatly. If the churches would (and would be allowed), they could use all their “educational facilities” as their names imply.
It is at least as important to educate our children as to send missionaries to Africa - for that matter, Africa is sending missionaries to us, and we need them.
Unfortunately, very few people see the next generation as a mission field, worthy of spending some money on. Because of this oversight, few church or other private schools can afford to pay teachers a decent salary and provide for children of lesser financial ability.
If enough people would say enough, we could reach a point where the market itself would shut the government schools down.
Of course, they may use zoning or other regulations to fight back, but it really ought to be tried.
Amen!
Ah...but have you considered how many members of Christian congregations get their pay check directly or indirectly from the government school education industrial complex?
This is why ministers are so fearful of offending those members who work for, or get money from, the government schools! Shame on them!
So...should we blame good teachers? YES! Absolutely!
It is so-called good teachers who are propping up a death eating educational system that should be removed from life support.
It is so-called good teachers and their spouses who attend so-called Christian churches who then lobby within their congregations to hold back the development of private schools. SHAME on them! And SHAME on their ministers.
Do I blame teachers? YOU BET! It is so-called good teachers who could do the most to end the destruction of our nation’s children. They are feeding children to the mouth of Molak for a puny paycheck. SHAME on them!
what about people who can’t afford to go to school?

As you drive down the highway please note all the beautiful new cars and trucks. ALL of these people, if they can afford a monthly car payment on these cars, CAN afford to pay for their child’s education. Everyone living in a house more than 2000 sq. feet can afford to pay for their child’s education. That is a LOT of people!
What government schools do is pay for their child’s education so they then have money free to buy bigger homes, more expensive new cars, grander vacations, and other toys.
I suggest that churches, private citizens, and businesses organize a yearly United Fund for Education. This would be more than enough to give **private*** vouchers to **private** schools to those who really need help.
