@jj-adams saidThings getting chippy on this thread here JJ.
Phranny is....odd.
I believe he is also a little crazy.
There's lots to distract from the solid conclusion we've all come to. The Kroger story and we can add in several other click-baity things about chicken and waffles and whatever, all of them indicate that those who want to be racist can do so freely without losing their property.
Ben Stein's thesis is not correct.

It’s the states job to ensure that kids are educated to certain levels of literacy, numeracy and so forth, it’s not the states job to build an alternative reality by censoring what kids can learn about their own historical and current realities. Slavery happened and it was an horrific crime against humanity, racism is a reality that a lot of kids have to face in the present ...[text shortened]... you not understand about the measures your law makers are shoving down the throats of children Joe?
@phranny saidYou fellers terring down statues, etc, Is that what you call whitewashing history?
The news is full of examples of local school boards and GOP state legislatures restricting information about post civil war mistreatment of black people, non-white ethnicities and how they have been and are treated in the U.S. and how LBGQT individuals are treated. They are whitewashing history books and even math books and banning books. The excuse is that anything that migh ...[text shortened]... f church and state.
I could cut and past numerous articles but I have been criticized for soing so.

History books? Well, you made the analogy. Is it the same?
@averagejoe1 saidBurying the truth under the jackboot of a fascist state is never good.

@mott-the-hoople saidThat’s because when your not lying you’re still as thick as two short planks.
“Slavery happened and it was an horrific crime against humanity, racism is a reality that a lot of kids have to face in the present but the new Republican movement is intent on airbrushing historical and current realities that do not fit its own electoral rubric. ”
example? you have a habit of spouting off 💩 that doesnt make sense.
@averagejoe1 saidLol you people are so Lilly liveried you scamper away from the truth like ass kicked kittens.
I just breezed over this. You seem to be saying all books, all teaching , indoctrination, whatever you lily-livered libs call it, should be wide open, with no family or citizen input.
Dare I ask if it is OK to teach porn to my children? Not meant to insult you, as we know you will say no, even as it is happening. (go figure).
So when you say that we should no ...[text shortened]... Should Not be taught.
Then, tell us who makes that decision.
Will you answer this question?
@averagejoe1 saidYou you will not find parks in Germany with statues honoring Hitler and his helpers. No one in Germany flies the swastika. Since the end of the Civil War, black taxpayers have been paying for Confederate flags and statues.

@zahlanzi saidStay with me Zahlanzi...you get so hyper. OF COURSE I want works of Art. So you write that, but you do not mention teaching of pornography, the taking of children to see pole (sexual) dancing in a seedy sticky-floor bar? Inviting queer men who dress as women to come to class room. That may not be porn to liberals, but you know it is extremely inappropriate. How bout we split the difference and just say to not teach inappropriate material to babies. And for the record, sex ed is fine, but porn is not. And did I mention religion ? No, but here is an expletive for your post.
"Dare I ask if it is OK to teach porn to my children?"
the list of books (that o posted here and you ignored) banned by Missouri for various reasons included books of paintings by renown artists. Works of art by Michelangelo or Da Vinci and other classics. So the answer to that question may very well be a yes depending on what uptight frigid religious zealot who does the labeling.
Jesus Christ

You you will not find parks in Germany with statues honoring Hitler and his helpers. No one in Germany flies the swastika. Since the end of the Civil War, black taxpayers have been paying for Confederate flags and statues.
LMFAO...getting desperate?
@mott-the-hoople saidBoth of those would be more justified than having statutes of traitors erected and maintained on public lands in the US.

@mott-the-hoople saidLook out Mott, you risk losing these turkeys from the thread! Or, they will change the subject. They cannot find it in themselves to lock on to any discussion about this horrible president.

I am all into simple questions. Can you help me word one for our libs, about China? They seem to have no problem with China. I asked them, for instance, to comment on their Millions given to Penn Biden, which is documented. They will not. They may mention Trump.

@mott-the-hoople saidThe Constitution already does. Surely you're aware that the Confederates being discussed levied war against the United States?

@no1marauder saidWhat has that got to do with Biden selling out America to enrich himself and his family?

He's been doing it for 50 years, why has he not been arrested and removed from office?
