“You must respect authority.”
That was the take-home lesson for some middle schoolers at the 9/11 Memorial in New York City.
It probably comes as no surprise that this is what kids are being taught these days in public schools.
Last week a group of patriotic kids went to the 9/11 Memorial site and began singing the national anthem. One would think this was a respectful thing to do for fallen countrymen, whose lives, according to the official story, were taken by evil terrorists whom we should all fear.
Apparently, the 1st Amendment is as dead as those victims at the 9/11 site, because the kids were immediately silenced by a security guard.
But that wasn’t the worst lesson that kids got
You’d think that would be the worst of it, but you’d be wrong.
Their teacher – who shouldn’t even be allowed to housebreak puppies with this outlook – explained to CNN that she used this as a teaching opportunity.
Unfortunately, the teaching opportunity wasn’t about the constitutional rights that were being trampled on. Nope.
Instead, it was a more of a brainwashing opportunity that could easily have been part of the curriculum at Nazi Elementary School.
She said that they “reverently…complied” (reverently???) and then she went on to explain to them this valuable lesson: “Even if you don’t agree with it or don’t understand it, you must respect authority.”
Just obey
So, even if you think something is wrong, kiddos, do what you’re told. Obey without question. Be quiet and respectful. This will make you fine citizens later when you ignore the ever-worsening atrocities that are being committed by those in authority.
This video will blow your mind and make you want to homeschool if you aren’t doing so already. (Or go even more crazy and do away with any ties to “the education system” altogether.)
If they were “patriotic” they would sing “9/11 was a False Flag, a False Flag, a False Flag” and then dance on a “STAR of DEATH” flag.
The PSEUDO-religion of 9/11 worship is a cancer.
I think you might be missing the point of the article.
The fact that this happened is a very SAD reflection on the state of our country.
Fascism is diametrically opposed to Communism or Marxism and warred against it.
Why do you see it as somehow evil? Our own Frneral Patton later wished to ReArm Germany and Italy to invade ussr.
You like abortion, gay marriage, transgenders, fiat money and forced integration?
Exactly ! It never ceases to amaze me, how these people keep equating
everything negative with “FASCISM”, when the problem is marxism,communism and the left wingers in general
If Fascism would have won out in the last war, we wouldn`t be
in the situation we are in now. The bankers would not be in control,
and we all know who the bankers are, don`t we
Hi Daisy,
Please have a look at this photo essay below taken from 1930s fascist National Socialist Germany, and tell me if these people look miserable to you….it was in fact, the Happiest nation perhaps the world had ever seen and the wealthiest, made so in just 3 yrs, with no gold and only 10% military GDP.

HB,
Your being cynical right? You don’t really believe that do you?
Not being a hard nosed anarcist I will admit that society needs a certain number of rules to keep life safe and peaceful. The constitution of the US sets the basis for these rules. It seems to me that there were two authority figures involved with making these kids stop singing the anthem. If the teacher has spoken up to the security guard and claimed the authority of the first amendment to back the kids they would have learned something. It seems to me that the security guard would have been within the scope of his authority to break things up if those present had been starting a fist fight or some other breach of the peace.
There are many times that freedom loving adults that “respect” for authority comes in the form of staying under the radar so to speak so as to avoid consequences which may be unconstitutional or just plain stupid. It certainly is hard to teach the new generation to understand the difference between criminal behavior and standing up for your rights.
I do not know how to do links but if you search up a blog “The ultimate answer to kings” Joel has a Heinlein quote that says it well . You have to scroll pretty far down the sidebar to find it.
I think we are all being too melodramatic. Everyone these days seems to blow everything out of proportions. The security guard’s request was neither unusual, nor uncommon.
I think people greatly misunderstand what the 1st Amendment actually protects, and how and under what circumstances it protects it.
