Public High School Assignment: ‘Pretend You Are Muslim’ And Consider ‘Struggles You Face’

70

Bring the two symbols of Islam, kiddies, the sword and the Qur’an.

How about this public high school assignment: ‘Pretend You Are Christian’ and consider ‘Struggles You Face under Islam’.

When are the public schools going to stop proselytizing for Islam? Wouldn’t a more educational assignment be  “pretend you are” a  victim of “sharia law or jihad”? How about a math assignment: what percent of your total income (jizya) must you turn over to Islamic authorities if you are Christian? Jew? Hindu?

Public High School Assignment: ‘Pretend You Are Muslim’ And Consider ‘Struggles You Face’ A public high school in small-town Wisconsin is under fire for giving students an assignment in which they are to pretend they are Christians and give examples of the hardships they face — getting bullied by public school teachers for reading the Bible, for example, or the inability to start a campus club.

No, wait. Scratch that. That didn’t happen. That’s totally wrong.

The assignment asked students to pretend they are Muslims, reports EAGnews.org.

The teacher who gave students the assignment is Beth Urban, a 10th-grade world history teacher at Union Grove High School in Union Grove, Wis., a tiny enclave just over the Illinois border.

Milwaukee AM radio host Vicki McKenna posted the assignment on her Twitter account on Monday.

The taxpayer-funded assignment requires students to “pretend you are” a “Muslim male/female in U.S.” and “give 3 examples of what you do daily for your religion and any struggles you face.”

The assignment requires an essay of five paragraphs in length (“intro, 3 body paragraphs, closing”).

“**Keep in mind we’ve been doing work and watching documentaries that have the facts needed to write the essay,” Urban, the teacher adds. The two asterisks are hers.

At least some parents of students in Urban’s Union Grove High class are unhappy about the assignment.

“I feel that the purpose of the assignment is to show prejudices towards Muslims in America or to invent them or exaggerate them,” one parent who fears being identified told EAGnews.

“I believe this is a curriculum issue,” the concerned parent added, suggesting that school district officials, not Urban, select the content students must learn.

“I would have no problem with this assignment if they were to pretend they were in the Middle East and practicing their religion,” the parent added.

There are currently about 1.6 billion Muslims in the world, according to the Pew Research Center. Muslims comprise 23 percent of the planet’s population.

Almost exactly two years ago, the Union Grove school district was in the news for another questionable assignment.

The April 2013 assignment involved a crossword puzzle teaching eighth graders that conservatives are a bunch of authoritarian, oppressive thugs.

Conservatism, according to the public school assignment, is “the political belief of preserving traditional moral values by restricting personal freedoms and encouraging prosperity through economic freedom.”

Let that ridiculous middle part soak in, perhaps while you gulp down a massive sugary soda, utter something wonderfully politically incorrect and take target practice with your favorite firearm.

As a devout Muslim, I sometimes struggle to believe that a psychopathic pedophile confidence trickster could be a prophet of God. But then I just stick my ass in the air, and bang my head hard on the floor a couple of hundred times, and it all begins to seem quite rational.

Exposing the truth is now called selling hatred according to people like you who close their eyes to see the truth and their ears to hear it. Pam is in a free society where she can still express her opposing views and criticize, unlike most Muslim countries where you are imprisoned, tortured and killed for expressing and speaking your mind.

Simple Maths problem.

If you have two hands and two feet and I cut 50% of them off. How many children can you rape, marry and beat under sharia law?

That’s just pure logic and easy for even non muslims to work out.

Here’s my assignment..

As a women muslim in the USA I suffered from the humiliation of having my clitoris cut out and then my vagina sowed up, the humiliation of having to marry my cousin from a foreign land, the humiliation of having my education ridiculed and then having to wear the burka as a mark of a shame advertising all the spiteful things done to me in the name of islam, while I had to endure the forced rape and then the birth of 4 children to a man who beat me, raped me. If I could blow myself up I would. It’s got to be better than this?

Thank you USA, I moved here to get away from this…. What are you doing to me?
You cowards… You let yourselves down, and you are ignoring me and my plight. Stand up! It will cost you NOTHING. Please! STAND UP! STAND UP FOR ME!

For the past several generations, the Public Schools, their Leftist teachers, textbooks, Radical Left Teachers Union and liberal school boards is what has been teaching the children of the U.S. and only gets worse.
Support for Radical Left for decades and now Support for Radical Islam as the Public School agenda and continued in the Universities.
The above article is no surprise. This is what Public School do. This won’t change.
Why do Americans enroll their kids in Public School? Lazy, don’t care, or agrees with this radical propaganda.
Want a change, enroll you kids in the many good Private, Parochial or Charter Schools.

Parochial and many Charter schools have a large per cent of middle to well under middle class attending.
There won’t be an economy to worry about along with a country
with this ongoing Public School mindset grinding out new Democrat voters each graduation year.
It seems our society believes you can’t survive unless you are in a 4 bedroom home and have two cars. One of our major problems.
I have a relative in New Jersey, she and her husband had 5 children and lived in a small 2 bedroom 1 bath house and 1 car.
All went to parochial school, kids worked in the summer and all worked their way through Rutgers Univ. Today all successful.

“……all those discussions so popular among Western liberals about which method is best for the integration of the religious Muslim immigrants into the host non-Muslim societies are not only futile; they are amusing, like disputes about the best way to make a tiger a vegetarian.

The next rule Muhammad made clear was that immigration for Muslims is a religious duty. The reason is simple and evident: the more Muslims come to a non-Muslim country, the more possibilities this will open for infiltration in all structures of this country with the final goal of securing victory for Islam, and more soldiers will stand up when the time of Jihad comes. Immigration is a preparatory stage to Jihad, and Muhammad made it very clear when he said:

“I charge you with five of what Allah has charged me with: to assemble, to listen, to obey, to immigrate and to wage Jihad for the sake of Allah.”[1]

The religious duty of immigration was stated in numerous Koranic Surahs: 2:218, 8:72,74,75; 9:30,; 16:41; 16:110…They all start with the same words: “Those who believed and emigrated, and strove hard and fought in Allah’s Cause…” Immigration goes as a step stone for Jihad; where you cannot establish Islam by force is whereImmigration enters. And in practice, it looks like that: Islam in Egypt, Palestine and Persia was spread by the sword; but many other countries- Indonesia, Malaysia, Central Asia, some parts of India- were gained through “immigration.”

Immigration in Islam is merely a disguised conquest. ”

It is “very successful” only because of the astounding politically correct stupidity, cowardice and ignorance of Western leaders and countries’ elites who, evidently have turnips or pig droppings for brains. By now only an idiot does not know that the more Muslims who enter a Western country the more that conflict, crime and violence occurs. In Barack Obama’s case it is not ignorance that drives him to increase the fortunes of Islam, it is his sympathy towards Islam. How the hell does a traitor manage to remain in the White House when so evident that he is promoting Islam, restricting Western retaliation against savage Muslim groups like Boko Haram, the Muslim Brotherhood, al Qaeda and others, and endeavouring to give Iran the nuclear bomb despite Iran being the worlds’ most prominent exporter of terrorism? It is testament to contemptibly weak political opposition from the Republican Party and treachery from most of the Western media.

Well put Rob Porter. There are many who say Obama is stupid or ignorant. I don’t believe so. My fear is that he is intelligent with a goal. If this is true then the question becomes “What is that Goal”? It has now become quite obvious that it is not inline with our Constitution and our rights as Americans. They are dividing Americans based on race, wealth and religious beliefs (the hate Christians movement). So what is it? What do they want as an end result?

Sorry for the length of this RSS; but you asked!!!

Yes, all of the pieces of this evil plan seem to be coming together, and from various directions, and all to bring about an enslaved world. The U.S. Republic is lost, possibly forever. I believe that the situation we find ourselves in is
way too far gone to be corrected at the ballot box. The trap is about ready to close – on many fronts.

And then there’s Syria, Iraq redux, the illegal alien invasion, Ferguson, Mo and Bed-Stuy, NY, the continuing saga of “As the Stomach Turns” with ISIS, and now constant re-settlement of so-called “refugees” from Syria, Iraq, Somalia, et.al. in our home towns. And guess what? 90% of these “refugees” are muzlim. What is more is not only are we not allowed to flatly refuse, we haven’t even been asked. The UN (Useless Nincompoops) and our traitorous State Dept. (loaded to the gills with CFR members (Council on Foreign Relations) are paying YOUR tax-payer dollars to approx. 9 so-called “religious” organizations to bring them in. (Check out resettlementwatch.com).

This calls into question not just the tolerance of enemies among us – but the very insistence to bring those enemies among us. Why?

There is something more sinister going on here than meets the eye, not just for the U.S., but for ALL of what we would still like to think of as the “free world”. In addition to the pressure of the imminent collapse of the economies of the
various sovereign nations of the world, NO leaders could possibly be as obtuse as those in Great Britain, the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, and throughout the E.U., than to constantly proclaim (more stridently than ever, it seems) after each successive atrocity perpetrated by muslim jihadis that: “This has nothing to do with Islam!” despite constant and repeated proof to the contrary, even from the mouths of the jihadis themselves. No, this is willful blindness; and it seems to me that it has a purpose – one that does not bode well for the overwhelming majority of us.

The intended “balkanization” of the United States in particular, but also of all of what we once used to call “the free world”, certainly has a purpose: the destruction of those countries as sovereign nations. The EU has pretty much already seen to that in Europe. In this hemisphere it was the SPP (the so-called “Security and Prosperity
Partnership”) conceived within the bowels of the CFR. It has NOT been stopped, only driven “underground”. Surely Obama’s zeal to import this (and other) hemispheres’ third world masses into the once-sovereign United States makes that very clear.

I do believe the muzzies (and others) are being used by a handful of very powerful individuals, just as the Bolsheviks were used back in 1917; and just as the Nazis were used back in the late 1930s – just to name 2 examples. This handful of super ambitious men have used people – even masses of people – as catalysts to achieve certain “states of conflict”, if you will. That makes it easier to manipulate other masses of people in conflict against them.

I keep thinking of that damned “Hegelian Dialectic” in these situations: Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis. Remember, like Marx and Engels, these would-be “Rulers of the World” have an “absolute ideal” that they wish to bring about. Whether some want to call it “Socialism”, others
“Communism”, others “Islamism”, and still others a “New
World Order”. (And before you tell me to take out stock in tinfoil, just bear with me a while longer.)

Hegel states that “Because every ‘synthesis’ is the ‘thesis’ of a new dialectic, social change is guaranteed. He also maintains that this process will continue, allowing history to unfold and to “progress” until the “ABSOLUTE IDEAL” – the ultimate “synthesis” – so “perfect” that it gives rise to no “antithesis”, is achieved.

“Absolute ideal”??? In whose mind? “The ultimate synthesis”??? By whose standards?

Very good questions.

If we might let our minds entertain the idea that a few super-ambitious, very intelligent, extremely rich, and very powerful men very much want this “New World Order” to be ruled over by them – the handful of “elite” – with a larger gang of “tools” who have made themselves useful to this
elite to help control the peons (that’s us, by the way – the peons), then this whole idea doesn’t seem too far-fetched.

History has shown that there have always been those who have wanted to “rule” the world. Superior ability breeds superior ambition. However, they have never been able to pull off the “planetary bargain” by the usual means – that is, by aggression and war. Many have tried, and they have all failed.

Since then, some few have figured it out – that the usual means [war – by itself] will never work. That the only way to pull off this “planetary bargain” is to control the world’s monetary systems – preferably to merge these systems into one “world-wide” system. (Think IMF, the World Bank and the BIS – Bank for International Settlements – as interim phases.)

And just to shine a light on the type of individual Georg Hegel was, let me give you a quote: “…the State ‘has the supreme right against the individual, whose supreme duty is to be a member of the State… for the right of the world
spirit is above all special privileges.” — This was Author/historian William Shirer, (quoting Georg Hegel) in Shirer’s book, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (1959, page 144).

That certainly doesn’t sound like the thoughts of the “everyday” sort of people – you and me, for instance – that make up the bulk of the world’s population, does it? In fact, that line of thought is anathema to those of us who value freedom. That sort of thought seems to come from a megalo-maniacal, uber-narcissistic personality. (Islam’s so-called “prophet”, Mohammed, instantly comes to mind.) Karl Marx and Frederick Engels were of the same mind
as Hegel; and in fact relied upon Hegel’s theory to back up their economic theory of communism.

Remember, communism was never about “share the wealth”. That was the con-job served up to the masses to make socialism/communism sound appealing to them. It
was always about control the wealth; and, by extension, the people. And that is why socialism/communism always seemed to attract the strangest bedfellows, like
the Rockefellers and George Soros types for instance.

Remember also some of these SOBs have made it quite clear in some of their arrogant “slips” that have been quoted – such as:

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected
their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.” — David Rockefeller, Baden-Baden, Germany 1991

or this gem:

“Some even believe we (the Rockefeller family) are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure – one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.”
— David Rockefeller, Memoirs, page 405

or this one:

“We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New World Order.” — David Rockefeller

These are just from one super-wealthy, megalomaniac. There are more. I’ll add just one:

“Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered
Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond, whether real or
promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will
be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the World Government.”
— Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference, Evians, France, 1991

Bottom line, this is all about power – something that some people desire above all things. What I call “normal” minds (that’s us peons) cannot really understand this lust for power. I certainly can’t. Most of us have all we can do to live our own lives without wanting to control others’ lives.

The ultimate purpose of this “New World Order” Conspiracy (for want of a better, less maligned, word) is power. There are some who desire this even more than material goods, although the two frequently go together.

“Rose Kennedy (the wife of Joseph Kennedy) knew that the man she loved loved a power beyond the power of money. He wanted the power of government, and he would have
it.”
— Pearl Buck, author of The Kennedy Women.

The Conspiracy, then, needs conspirators, and it is logical to ask why illustrious men of wealth and fortune would join such an enterprise.

“The answer is quite the reverse of the question: These men (involved with the Conspiracy) became illustrious primarily because they were part of the Conspiracy.”
— Blair Coan, author of The Red Web.

So those involved do not become rich and/or illustrious and then join the Conspiracy; they become rich and illustrious because they are members of the Conspiracy.

But what is their motive? What prompts men to seek wealth and position?

“When a person has all the money he needs, his goal becomes power.”
— Former Congressman John Schmitz.

“There are two passions which have a powerful influence on the affairs of men. These are… love of power and love of money…. When united… they have the most
violent effects.”
— Benjamin Franklin

However, power itself has a corrupting influence on those who seek it. In an oft-quoted truth, Lord Acton explained power thus: “Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

The obsession and lust for power, like the obsession with money, like the obsession with material possessions, like the obsession with sex, like the obsession with drugs or booze, like the obsession with what your neighbor might have that you do not, are all false idols. So it comes as no surprise that those who seek power will be corrupted by it.

They will be willing to intentionally cause depressions, revolutions, and wars in order to further their desire for more power. This corrupting nature of the very pursuit of power explains why the moral mind of the individual who neither desires power over others, or understands the desire for such power, cannot fathom why power-seekers would want to create human misery through wars, depressions, and revolutions.

In other words, the conspirators (those few ultra-rich, ultra-ambitious men – and sometimes women) are successful because the moral citizen (you and I) cannot accept the conclusion that other individuals would actually wish to commit incredibly destructive acts against their fellow citizens.

Another power seeker, the Russian anarchist Bakunin, explained that this process of corruption even affected those dedicated to freedom, who were given power to
protect the powerless. He wrote that: “… the possession of power transformed into a tyrant even the most devoted friend of liberty.”

“Power is the end. What other delight is there but to enjoy the sheer sense of control? Let me see any other motive in the people who command.”
— Richard J. Whalen, author of The Founding Father, speaking of Joseph Kennedy.

So the motive of the Conspirators has been identified: It is Power!

(With thanks to Ralph Epperson, author of The Unseen Hand, An Introduction to the Conspiratorial View of History.)

Beyond what I’ve just described is an unseen, spiritual dimension to all of this. After all, which of God’s angelic creatures wanted power above all – even above an eternity spent with its loving Creator? You guessed it, Lucifer/Satan.
Although created perfect by God, that creature’s pride and lust for power – to be God – was a choice that was instantaneous and irrevocable; and condemned that archangel, and those angels who also rebelled against God, to an eternity of emptiness and despair.

That pride turned into a hatred that was so perverse and all-consuming that no Hollywood imagery could even begin to depict the sheer ugliness and evil of those fallen angels that are known generically as the demonic. If God is all that is good, creative, beautiful, loving, compassionate, kind, and all things we see as positive; Satan, and all of the
other fallen angels, became just the opposite.

Think of beings which still retained all of their angelic powers with which God created them, but were evil, destructive, ugly, hateful and hating, filled with malice
towards God and all of His creation, who were – and are – everything negative that we could ever imagine. These are creatures perverse and perverting. You can think of the demonic as a living NOT.

That is something extremely difficult to imagine with our limited, material minds. But these malicious beings have a certain amount of influence upon us and our world – but only as much as Almighty God permits, and as much as we allow.

The usual way we humans get into trouble with the demonic is through sin. Yes, personal sin. What is sin? Sin is when we, due to our own fallen nature, prefer the pride of our own erroneous choices in preference to what God has established for our own best interests.

Remember the seven deadly sins? Pride, Envy, Gluttony, Lust, Anger, Greed and Sloth.

Their opposites, the way that God chooses for us to live in order to be pleasing to Him are: Humility, Kindness, Abstinence, Chastity, Patience, Liberality and Diligence. By ourselves, we cannot hope to live in the way God sees as best for us. It is only through the deliberate act of our free will to choose to love God, and through His grace of the Holy Spirit to prefer His will over our own – as our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, did – can we ever hope to be pleasing to God.

Fighting against us in our journey upon this earth is Satan and his ilk. Since the demonic hate all of God’s creation – especially us, God’s children; and do not want us to be with our Heavenly Father when our time on earth is done, they try to tempt us, to turn us away from God (just as Satan tried – unsuccessfully – to tempt Jesus Christ to turn away from The Father).

Many of these demonic creatures have an intelligence which no human on earth can hope to match; and they will try whatever works to accomplish their evil purpose. If one of our weaknesses happens to be for love of money, that is how they might tempt us. Ifone of our weaknesses happens to be a jealous nature, that is how they may tempt us. If one of our weaknesses is a love of promiscuous sex for pleasure, that could be how they might tempt us. The ways to “get at” us are many. We all have weaknesses.

And then of course, there’s that old favorite, pride. I’m not talking here about a “healthy” pride, like the pride that we might take in our family, or the pride that we should take in our work. I’m talking about unhealthy pride: hubris,
arrogance – that pride that seeks to elevate the creature above the Creator. That’s a dangerous and spiritually deadly pride. And that is the type of pride that is manifest in a lust for power. (That same pride that Eve succumbed to
when she bought into the serpent’s lie: “You shall be as God!” Hey, why not? It was the same pride that every one of the demonic angels felt when they rebelled against God.)

This is how each and every one of our lives can become intertwined – or hopelessly ensnared – with the demonic. Jesus Christ said that: “The man who sins becomes a slave of sin.” And Satan is a cruel master. We will find that the longer we remain in sin, the harder it is to escape. Our consciences become deadened; and we no longer hear the voice of God warning us away from the deadly path we have chosen.

Unfortunately, some choose to remain upon that path of death until death takes us from this life. And if we die unrepentant, we cannot hope to be with our Heavenly Father for eternity, for it is we who have chosen to separate ourselves from His love, not the other way around. There are many who are on that path; and there are some who even revel in it because they have chosen to embrace the “prince” of this world, Satan, and all that he has offered.

But it is a lie. Whatever temporal pleasures, riches, power or other enticements have been offered are fleeting. (The fool has said in his heart “There is no God!” or worse: “I am my own God; there is no other!” You couldn’t be more wrong.)

But do not despair. All is not lost. And it is important that we remember that. While we yet live, we have a way out.
Jesus Christ paid the price for our sins that we could never ever hope to pay.

All we need to do is to first and foremost acknowledge who and what we are – sinners – and that by ourselves we cannot hope to “perfect” ourselves. Acknowledge Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour whose love saved us from the punishment we deserve. With a loving, repentant and grateful heart, thank Him who took our punishment upon Himself. Tell Him we want – we choose – to follow Him; and to please keep us from sin.

Try using the prayer that Jesus Himself taught us:

“Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the
Glory. Forever. Amen.”

We must accept Christ’s victory – and live it.

There is a legitimate debate on whether these charges are true or not but Obama has supported the Muslim Brotherhood, opened Iraq to terrorists and Iran and refused to do anything real to stand against this growing and evil tide. Now he is arranging for the need Iran to acquire a nuclear bomb? Huh???

It’s a testimony to idolatry – to excuses for deferring one’s responsibility and right to think for one’s self to “expert authorities.”

“Let that ridiculous middle part soak in, perhaps while you gulp down a massive sugary soda, utter something wonderfully politically incorrect and take target practice with your favorite firearm.”

Pamela, I’m only halfway with you on this statement. First, I avoid sugary soda to leave room in my diet for calories from alcohol. Second – spot on – I hate political correctness. Third, I’m conflicted because I love all of my firearms equally.

To put it in perspective a friend asked me the other day, “Which of your guns do you like the best?” I was impertinent in that I answered a question with a question: “Which of your daughters do you like best?”

Back to the article…this would be an excellent opportunity for parents to help with their kid’s homework!

I just cannot stand it. What the hell is happening in my country, the USA? It seems the Americans are completely breaking down and became absolutely stupid in not realizing what they are doing continuing in this liberal/socialist/Marxist view point. It will get them killed eventually.

I completely sympathize with your statement.
But the problem emanates from the top. Our leader was brought up as a Muslim/Marxist; what can you expect when he’s in charge, holding the reins and driving the USA? He’s not disposed to do anything that will ill-treat Muslims, including those who want to kill Christians and Jews. Until we get rid of this con-artist, we’ll continue on a downward spiral toward destruction.

Incredible how ISLAM has this stunning number of mentally ill MEN… it must be the muslim IQ, striking again, and again. It is very simple: ISLAM like all forms of evil cannot bear beauty… the girl was beautiful, that was her problem. This is why women must be covered and oppressed, look at their men! Who would CHOOSE them if not forced??

Then when a kid comes to school dressed as a suicide bomber they will expel him?
Or perhaps they will fire this teacher to for not following the curriculum?

If I were a Muslim three daily activities would be:
1. Building a bomb in the kitchen of my mom.
2. Being a member of a grooming or rape gang preying on under age non Muslim girls.
3. Beating up Jews on the street. Takes at least six Muslims to beat up one Jew.

This victimisation is a ploy practiced by prominent Americans to undermine the US and spew genocidal hate against Israel. All this after benefitting from American schools, and colleges.
A UCLA graduate doctor (Dr Rushdi Cader ) who gets public
funds and who trains the police is active at many Muslim hate hates under
anonymous pseudonyms, primarily DrM

Whis is he allowed to practice medicine here? How did we
fall this low to nurture the enemy within?

DrM or Dr Maxtor of drmaxtor.blogspot.com said to be Dr Rushdi Cader of Umma Clinic

Oh they face so many struggles… first of all, Hitler is dead, and Israel does exist (unbearable). Pedophilia is still a crime (unbearable), domestic violence is still perceived as a problem (unbearable), incest is a problem (unbearable), men are forced to take responsibility for their actions BY THE POLICE (that’s the worst thing of all, fascist police! unbearable), genital mutilation is bad for women’s health (unbelievable and unbearable), non-muslim countries are more advanced, more civilized BECAUSE they’re not muslim countries (unbearable), people actually can read the quran and the bullshit contained in it (unbearable), YOUR OPINION CAN BE QUESTIONED, AND YOU MIGHT END UP BEING WRONG _ what a scandal, what a struggle.

Americans are now, Officially, thee most stupid of global inhabitants.

Terms and phrases like “society” and “we must educate” have become the stupid and ignorant America’s politically correct and feel good verbage. Had I been a parent while this was going on, this school and its teachers would KNOW me….. This pathetic lunacy is not for the purpose of education, as it is about a teachers negligence while having a “kiss muslim ass” and “bleeding heart” liberal moment.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING THAT CAN COME OF THIS STUPIDITY….. NOTHING!!!!

Teachers who corrupt their students, as in this case, must be fired and imprisoned for blasphemy and supporting the enemy. But, again, American patheticism outweighs American family and patriotic values.

Teachers unions and it’s support network are nothing more than womb rejected scum who ARE NOT WORTH THE MONEY THEY HAVE BLACKMAILED OUT OF THE TAXPAYERS. In fact, no union is worth even the residue in a toilet bowl.

Obama. Terrorists. Illegals. Islam. Unions. Holder. Kerry. Clinton. Muslims. Congressional Black Caucus. Liberals. Hollywood…….
AND THE DIFFERENCE IS?????

Parents, or at least that is what they think they are, are now, fast becoming neuro surgeons by proxy. Today’s parents are not nearly qualified to be parents as the generation before them. These “parents?” know, based on SOCIETY, that vaccinations are not necessary, or even capable of preventing disease or illness.

When I went to school, you know, when teachers actually taught, it was mandatory to be vaccinated. I got through school without a generated disease or illness. It is called PREVENTION you freaking idiots.

And with your womb rejected, anal lipped, fraud in the White House allowing illegals and muslim trash into the USA, more filth and disease follows…

WAKE up you idiots…

“The struggles I face as a muslim in America” (by Little Johnny):

1.) There are no Yezidi girl sex slaves in North America for me to rape at will.
2.) Infidels don’t wear the prescribed clothing to identify them as inferiors.
3.) Not all food in the supermarkets is marked as Halal – yet.
4.) Not all women are properly covered up, thus forcing me to lust after them.
5.) My sisters refuse to wear their burkas, thus forcing me to lust after them.
6.) Dogs! There are dogs everywhere!
7.) Jews! There are Jews everywhere!
8.) People get upset when I rape babies!
9.) People get upset when I rape slaves!
10.) There is not enough dirt for me to wash in it properly, thus I have to use water!
11.) My teacher is a female!!!!
12.) People get upset when I slaughter my used goats to sell to the next village (Heh!)
13.) I am not allowed to execute straying wives or random infidels in public – yet.
