Why Do We Allow America's Enemies to Run Schools Here?

Because, sadly, a majority of Americans are more worried about who won Dancing with the Stars last night, the Monday night NFL game, the World Series, than are worried about what happens to this Republic. We are more interested in seeing the latest Lite Beer by Miller Commish commercial with that stupid guy as some type of stupid beer commissioner, than we are about the health and welfare of the Republic. Americans simply do not give a damned any more. We could no longer fight the War for Independence, WWI, WWII, Korea or even Vietnam again. Americans are fat, soft, sit on their butts ordering pizza on the phone, watching Ope-pra, Jennie, Springer, Divorce Court, all the various stupid reality shows, and all the five hundred sports shows on tonight. America is being defended by the smallest majority to the population group in the history of this country. We have far fewer soldiers, sailors, Marines, and navy personnel now than we had 25 years ago. The population has grown, the military has been cut, and those few are fighting for the majority who simply don’t give a damn. 9-1-1 is as far away as the Civil War to them. It is over, gone, forgotten, happened, hell 6 WHOLE years ago. Let it go. Move on, ain’t gonna bring em back. Same old sit on their fat ass attitudes. America is the fattest country on the globe. Fat with body fat, fat with having it all and hell not even paying for it, but having it FREE!!! from Hillary and the gang. America, sadly, is going down the tubes, and only a slim percentage of us care. We are out numbered by the stupids and sit on their asses.

As someone who was homeschooled growing up I would be afraid that if we go after this school it will set a precedent that will later be used to go after Christian Schools and homeschools. Ultimately, as long as they are just preaching hate in a private school and not actually advocating violence then I think we have to allow them to operate because I don’t want to give the government the power to determine what sort of school curriculum is acceptible for a private school.

Isn't there a mountain town in upstate NY that has a suspected terrorist training camp within in it's city limits? The local law won't even get too involved.

Kaine’s not a lunatic any more than any other anti-semitic fascist in this world.

The federal government already has power over any school established by a foreign legation that operates here under direct treaty arrangements.

The Saudi school in question is such a school. There's no new exercise of power needed to deal with the issue.

BTW, these embassy and other foreign legation related institutions are NOT private schools!

Oh, those enemies! I was sure this thread would be about the Gramscians and the NEA!

Actually, when you mentioned how the enemies of the US are running the schools, I figured you were talking about how leftists run most of the public schools in the US.
