We are fast becoming an idiocracy.

The 20-odd people chanting “Honk if you want justice,” on a New Bedford, Massachusetts sidewalk Dec. 12 got a lot of attention. They were second graders, rallying against police for the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. While the rest of their class enjoyed 11:30 recess that morning, these 7 and 8-year-old protesters stood by the side of the road in front of the Alma Del Mar Charter School holding signs including one that read, “Please don’t shoot me, Ferguson.”
quote:
Will Gardner, the school’s founder and executive director, stands by the school’s decision to let the kids protest, saying it was allowed as part of lesson in civics. Gardner told The Boston Globe that the class’s teacher had sent a note home with her students Dec. 10 alerting parents that the class would be discussing diversity and “issues covered by the media,” and offering kids an opt-out of the talks if parents so chose. The protest “wasn’t something the teacher planned,” he said. “It was something the kids did.”

I'm sure they were all sitting around doing the NYT crossword puzzle in their off period and got to talking about how they should stage a protest.

I wonder if they showed the 2nd graders the beating of an 86 year old man by Michael Brown?

In 2nd grade? I would definitely opt out...of the school entirely. Some strong indoctrination practiced at that school.

George Borden, the father of one participant and a policeman in New Bedford, told WHDH that discovering his 7-year-old had participated in the protest and finding a flyer in her backpack urging people to join a weekend protest “against the unjust systems that allow police officers to kill Black men and boys with impunity,” was “horrific to me.” He says he only learned about the protest after a friend saw it and called him.
Borden told WHDH his daughter asked him, “Daddy, do you shoot people?” And now he wants an apology from his daughter’s teacher.

I think he was referring to the strong arm robbery. 86 year olds generally don't carry backpacks.

That wasn't actually Michael Brown.
Well what about the video of him stealing and intimidating the smaller asian man?
Either way, sooner or later, Brown would have met the same fate.

All he gives a frick about is WWE and Skylanders.

Maybe because your son is white and doesn't have to worry about the police walking into his classroom and shooting him while he is reading.

He's not white. He is Hispanic.
Although maybe a white Hispanic.
