And for all your concern about the leftist indoctrination of this government textbook, you should probably consider learning about the government yourself, because clearly a simple but uber important concept of our government one the first amendment is something you have trouble understanding.

Here was your thread after Kathy Griffin's stupid and despicable but not Illegal, headless Trump magazine cover was released:

Why is Kathy Griffin not being arrested?

He was a minister.

So yes, I'm triggered due to the implied non-separation of church and state message.

Why do we worship MLK? I don't want to, and I don't want my kids to idolize him.

It's clear indoctrination. Y'all are so indoctrinated yourselves that you can't see it.

I'm triggered because the sculptor was obviously racist. MLK's nose & lips are huge. Looks like he belongs in a 1940's cartoon. Stereotyping like this cannot be allowed. Tear the statue down.

Thurgood Marshall or Ben Carson would have been better choices, but blacks can't recognize a picture of the former and white liberals have taught them to despise the latter.

That cover is a joke. MLK was neither a government institution or a policy maker. It would be more appropriate to have a picture of the Capital next to a image of the Constitution or Bill of Rights. A left political agenda created that cover and the implication is that his arms are crossed, because he doesn't accept the nation's institutions like the Washington monument. Sadly, the revisionist text in the book is probably worse that the cover.

Jesus fricking Christ.

You know the funny part of your shitpost? That's probably the most conservative, dry and boring textbooks out of the 8-10 main textbooks that are used for AP Gov.

Idiot.

He effected American policy. Race since the civil war has affected American history in large ways so I don't see the problem. Are we talking about album covers or something?

I'm sure I didn't get the a's vs the e's right
