"People have the right to certain weapons… providing that they register them"
Mikael Thalen Infowars.com March 21, 2014
A workbook handed out to seventh grade students in Springfield, Ill., states that all Americans must register their firearms in order to have a Second Amendment right.
Provided to the Illinois Gun Owners Rights Facebook page by a local parent, the required reading makes several blatantly false statements regarding the right to gun ownership.
“This amendment states that people have the right to certain weapons, providing that they register them and they have not been in prison,” the workbook states.
Along with an open ended statement regarding the right to “certain weapons,” the assignment also excludes mention that Americans have the right to “keep” and bear arms.
The parent, speaking on the condition of anonymity, confirmed the assignment to Storyleak and detailed their child’s initial reaction.
“My son was given a workbook at school that is a compilation of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. When they covered the 2nd Amendment, he saw that they were stating that only ‘certain guns’ could be owned and that they had to be ‘registered,’ which he knew was false,” the parent said. “He bought this to my attention as he felt it was wrong to teach these things that aren’t true. I’m extremely proud of my son for his actions.”
We have talked here before, and recently, about what our schools are teaching our children about their constitutional rights. Usually, it has been about Zero Tolerance policies in reference to guns. Sometimes, we have talked about the reluctance of schools to allow school officials to bear concealed firearms in hope that they may prevent, or at alleviate, the danger to children from armed outsiders who see schools as ... not a place where children can be nurtured, but rather as a place where they KNOW that there is nobody present who might intercede For The Children when these evil outsiders choose to act out their homicidal fantasies.
But never have we been able to present such blatant documentation of the fact that schools are deliberately presenting their bias to children by bold-faced lies.
Perhaps it's time to demand that public schools stick to the basics of education, and leave their bias at home. Teachers can't be blamed for this; it's an obvious attack on the teaching of Civics against unformed minds. The administrators of this school, and other schools whose administrators hold the same political opinions, should and must be held accountable for their unforgivable attempts to propagandize the minds of their students.
This is absolutely unforgivable.
Do it for the Children!

In a very many locals public education has little to do with actual education and much to do with indoctrination.
