Obama orders 'mental-health' testing for schoolkids

Using “gun violence” as its cover, the Obama administration has quietly unleashed a cache of federal dollars that will be used for testing students for signs of mental health issues in K-12 schools.

Critics say personal information scooped up in the screenings will be logged into databases that will follow the child throughout his or her academic career and beyond.

Public schools, which have increasingly taken on aspects of psychiatric clinics in recent years, will get infused with more than $150 million in federal grants to further this agenda under the auspices of Obama’s 2013 executive action titled “Now is the Time to Do Something About Gun Violence.”

Obama took the action following the Sandy Hook, Connecticut, school shooting, putting Vice President Joe Biden in charge of a task force on “gun violence.”

Brings a whole new and frightening meaning to "permanent record" now doesn't it? Parents and grand-parents take note. Our tax dollars at work.

They will test for political leanings, and leftist teachers will work to destroy incipient Republican kids.

In ANYONE but Obama's hands, I could get with this.

In Obama's hands, this is simply Soviet.

[Paladin2]

These days the “permanent record” threat is real.

[MeshugeMikey]

This is unconscionable ! Intolerable.

this crosses the line between a soft tyranny and a hard tyranny.

He realizes that it would have helped him immensely.

Obama is a POS.

[freeangel]

This is evil on so many levels.

[freeangel]

Can the House defund it?

[EternalVigilance]

Way past time to exit the government schools and padlock the doors.

As most if not all kids involved in shootings are on mind altering drugs from those same sicky-actricks, I suspect this will make the situation worse. Pretty much par for the course for the manure-midas.

[Crazieman]

Buy it on the street. No big deal.

[Karl Spooner]

Does the 5th amendment apply for kids?

[KSCITYBOY]

Maybe we should test the President’s mental health.

[rktman]

Geez, I kinda thought it applied to all US citizens. From birth. I guess the constitutional scholar currently residing in the WH knows more than us huh?

[rktman]

Oh, there’s mental issues no doubt.

[WayneS]

Not me.

I cannot “get with this” no matter who is in charge of it.

[WayneS]

I have been thinking the same thing. I think he is becoming more mentally unstable with each passing day.
