Stick this in your pipe and smoke it: https://strongamericanews.com/virginias-government-schools-to-teach-social-justice-to-kindergarteners/ Virginia kindergarten students will learn about institutional racism alongside the alphabet, according to a new curriculum created for the upcoming school year. Loudoun County is adding “social justice” to the mission of teaching elementary school students reading, writing, and arithmetic. The Washington, D.C., suburb—the richest county in the country—has teamed up with the Southern Poverty Law Center’s (SPLC) education arm Teaching Tolerance to develop its new curriculum. The proposed lesson plan will restructure history and social studies classes to emphasize slavery as fundamental to American society for students from kindergarten to the fifth grade.

Summarize why teaching slavery as part of American history is anti-American. Should kids not learn about it? Are you personally offended by it? Why? I don't smoke.

Teaching 5-year-old school children about "social justice" and "institutionalized racism" seems about as appropriate as when schools have drag queens read to their elementary students. It's all about indoctrination. Trump had a legitimate claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if the Democrats have to actually work for the black vote in a big blue state. What's funny is Kanye is essentially running on my platform: anti-abortion, anti-pedophile, pro-homestead, pro-nuclear family, anti-big pharma, etc. Now they're coming for him. Why? "He's crazy." What about what he said is crazy? "He said pills are bad." What's the solution? "Put him on pills." ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say the fact that we doubled the number of vaccines recommended for children under 2 in the last 30 years is awesome. It shows how far the science has come. All of those vaccines are approved by the FDA. Are there any specifically you are weary of? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now what's interesting is that you fixate on anti-vax positions (something that eventually comes down to individual rights vs. states' rights/responsibilities anyway) in order to undercut things like anti-pedophilia. Does anti-pedophilia align with your values? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already had a bought of shingles prior to 15! Scars on back to prove it! I was floored when doctor said it was shingles. Daughter born 2002, had the varicella vax, mandatory I believe. 3 minutes ago, wAcKy ZeBrA said: I fixate on anti-vax because Kanye's pro anti-vax stance is why I think he is crazy.

Tossup whether I'd prefer a dumb president or a crazy one. 1 minute ago, ExiledInIllinois said: +1. My son born 1998 had chickenpox under the age of 1. Already had a bought of shingles prior to 15!

I was probably one of the first to get the varicella vaccine in the states, as I believe it was not approved until 1995. I was still young then. I think I just got the one dose around then at age 5.

If the left holds both Houses after election, we can have a happy stalemate for the next four years under Trump and ensure the sanity of the judiciary. The alternative is somewhat frightening.
