A teacher at Timber Ridge Middle School in Plainfield,
Illinois, constructed an unusual vocabulary quiz recently. According to
theblaze.com, Rebecca Gomez’s mother was deeply chagrinned when her
eighth-grade daughter brought home the exam populated by blatantly anti-Trump
fill-in-the-blank questions. A sampling of the scholarly linguistic queries:
*“It
was difficult for me to [blank] my feeling when I learned that Donald J. Trump
had been voted in as our 45th President.”
*“After
reading about President Trump’s immigration ban, I did not realize how [blank]
the law can be.”
Leftists
incessantly talk about the founder’s belief in the separation of church and
state, which only meant that there should be no official, state-sponsored/controlled
religion. That doctrine was meant to protect and foster the concept of freedom of religion, not freedom from religion, which they would have
seen as anathema.
Similarly,
the state must not be involved in sponsoring/promoting one political viewpoint
or party, or totalitarianism reigns- by definition. There must be freedom of thought and speech, as well as
freedom from political indoctrination
or coercion. When public schools, tax-payer funded and government controlled,
attempt to indoctrinate rather than educate their students, our vocabulary
should be brought to bear in an all-out, full-throated attack on those engaged
in the brainwashing. In conclusion, let me just say:
*It was
hard for me not to [blank] when I heard about this quiz. Furthermore, those in
the government, taking tax-payer’s money to create biased, intolerant and
non-inclusive quizzes like this should be soundly [blanked].
