"Part of the problem with the word heroic may be that it's too simplistic," he said.

I believe the problem is the educators being too simple minded to teach.

We know there were AT LEAST six Mexicans who fought on the American side at the Alamo, most likely because they had a real good idea of what sort of $#*+hole rule Santa Ana would bring. There were probably more because some of them took Anglicized names . . . plus a significant number of Texans who had Mexican wives.

Mexicans weren't the problem, it was the $#*+hole values of their ruling class.

The panel said "heroic" was a "value-charged word."

Heaven help us if educators were to convey any positive values to our children.

I had an ancestor who was one of the 32 men who answered Col. Travis’s call for volunteers to defend the Alamo. They fought their way INTO the Alamo when it was surrounded by thousands of Mexican troops. He was only in his early 20’s and volunteered in place of his brother who was a newlywed. Don’t tell me that wasn’t heroic.

However, if it was talking about Ernesto "Che" Guevara they would be ecstatic...

Lousy stinking commie scumbags!

We are now naming FRIGGIN’ NAVAL SHIPS after bozos like Gaby Giffords and Ceasar Chavez and have chickensh*t thieving politicians calling themselves Spartacus but lets not call the guys at the Alamo “heroes”.

Coming to Texas schools very soon:

9/11 was your fault, America.

Pearl Harbor military got what it deserved from Japan.

The American Civil War was a figment of Lincoln’s imagination.

Hitler was simply a misunderstood and under appreciated German.

White farmers in South Africa are always wrong, every time, every issue.

The American Revolution was a farce.

Columbus should have stayed in Spain or at least Italy.

Stalin loved to knit.

Genghis Khan was simply a wandering traveler.

Apache warriors were just looking for their lost mail.

SHUT UUUUUUUP!

Barf alert was unnecessary. But the raw stupidity of the term “value-charged statement” will make many a freeper hurl chunks.

It’s clear the weak kneed members of this ridiculous PC panel has no clue of the meaning of heroic nor the sacrifice those heroic men made.

get rid of the term “social studies” it is misleading. Call it what it is: History. We’d all be better off with less use of the word ‘social’.

Could we please once again have American history books written by Americans who actually love America? That'd be nice.

They were early Nike endorsers. They believed in something even if it meant sacrificing everything. That should please the critics.
