The Government Owns Your Children



Pick your up kids from school & go to jail
  • With school dismissed a father was arrested for attempting to pick his kids up from school in a startling new example of how the state is increasingly treating children as its own property.


A Cumberland County, Tennessee father didn't want to wait in a long line of traffic to pick his kids up from school. That led to a series of encounters last week at South Cumberland Elementary, and now the dad's facing charges.

"I'm going to call some help down here and we're going to take you up to the jail right now. I'm not putting up with this today. You're being childish and it's uncalled for," Sheriff Deputy and School Resource Officer Avery Aytes said in the YouTube video.
.
The video goes on to show the dad arguing with the school security officer over state law, then the dad winds up in handcuffs reports ABC WATE News.

"I'm not raising my voice, I'm not confrontational, I want my kids," Jim Howe said in the YouTube video.

The video was taken by Amanda Long Thursday afternoon as she and her fiance, Jim Howe, were trying to pick up Howe's two children from school. It shows Howe arguing with Deputy Aytes.

Howe says, because of a new policy that started last week, the only way parents can get their children after 2 p.m. is to wait in a line of cars until everyone is released at 2:35. He says not only is this time consuming, it's illegal.

"You don't need a reason as a parent to go get your children. They are our children," Howe said.

As the video shows, Howe was arrested by Aytes for disorderly conduct. Deputy Aytes tells 6 News he's unable to comment because this is an open case. Cumberland County Sheriff Butch Burgess says he hasn't seen the video and doesn't need to, because it won't tell the whole story. He says Aytes was just doing his job.


Your Children are the Property of the State

School field trip to mosque for Koran readings



Welcome to our Mosque
Tennessee high school takes students on field trip to
Mosque, given copies of the Koran



Gary Rule #1   -   People are fucking idiots.

The hatred of liberals for their own culture is on display on a daily basis for all to see.  Only government employed Commie-Lib teachers would think it was a good idea to take a bus filled with children to a mosque for Koran readings.

A Tennessee high school has decided to revise its field trip policy after a group of freshmen were taken to an Islamic mosque where they were given copies of the Koran and while a student who opted out of the trip was given a worksheet that alleged Muslims treated their conquered people better than the United States treated minorities.

The students were in an honors world studies class at Hendersonville High School and the field trips to the mosque as well as a Hindu temple were part of a three-week course on world religions.

But some parents objected to the trips and wondered why the school would tour a mosque but not a Christian church or a Jewish synagogue reports Fox News.


“If you can’t go to all five, why are you going to any?” asked parent Mike Conner. “We sent the principal an email and voiced our concerns. She sent back a reply and told us they could not afford to go to all five.”

Report said the students were taken to the Islamic Center of Nashville.

Children were given punch and cookies at the mosque where they listened to readings from the Koran, Conner said. They were also given copies of the Islamic holy book – which some students took and others declined.

Conner told Fox News his 14-year-old stepdaughter Jessica decided not to attend the trip. So her teachers instructed her to write a paper comparing and contrasting the Christian, Hindu and Islamic faiths. That’s when his daughter noticed something strange.

“There was one page on the sayings of Jesus, two-thirds of a page on the sayings of Gandhi, and five pages on Muhammed,” Conner said.

The section about Islam was titled, “Religious Tolerance in Islam,” according to the worksheets provided to Fox News.

The author wrote that the “Prophet of Islam was prepared to live in peace with the followers of other monotheistic religions, especially Judaism and Christianity.”

Conner told Fox News his daughter declined to complete what she considered to be an unfair and unbalanced assignment.

“Because of a surplus in information on Muhammed, and a lack of complete and thorough information on Mahatma Gandhi and Jesus Christ, there is not enough true facts to properly complete a comparison and contrasting paper,” Jessica wrote on her paper.

Her parents warned her that she might be punished by her teachers for standing up for her beliefs – and she was. Jessica received a ‘zero’ for the assignment.

Conner and his wife met with school officials who refused to change their daughter’s grade or give her an assignment that was more balanced.

“They told us we were being hostile towards Islam,” Conner said. “It was a very confrontational meeting. Their attitude was, ‘I can’t believe you would question our motives with your children.’”




Many teachers are idiots.
Members of the "education" profession are some of the most stupid people in America today.  Their vicious hatred of American culture and freedom is passed on to their helpless students who are trapped in government monopoly schools.

School bans pork to avoid offending Muslims



School says "No Bacon!"
So-called "educators" are some of the most stupid,
politically correct people in America.


The Islamic Food Police  -  Every mistake Europe made, we are repeating. Why would a Tennessee school do such a thing? If Muslims don't want to eat pork, that's fine. But why must others adhere to their supremacist ideology?

The school didn't say it was to avoid offending Muslims. They said it was about avoiding food allergies. But as one parent noted, "I’ve never heard of a life-threatening pork allergy."

A Tennessee elementary school banned students from eating ham sandwiches, BLT’s and anything else made with pork, but eventually lifted the ban after parents complained.

Third grade teachers at Sunset Elementary School in Brentwood, Tenn. sent home an “Approved Snack List” for the school year and it specifically banned anything that comes from a pig.


“No meats containing pork,” read the memorandum. “Starting Monday, August 12, 2013 your child must provide their own snack from the above approved snack list.”

Kids could nosh on raw vegetables without dips or sauces, fresh fruit, crackers, pretzels, and popcorn – but no ribs or pork rinds reports Fox News.

“Only choose a food from the following list to bring into school for snack,” the memorandum stated in bold-face type. “No other food items are permitted.”

One day after the pork ban went into effect, Williamson County Schools posted a message on their Facebook page telling parents to ignore the rules.

“Schools should only be offering suggested snack choices, and that information will be sent home only if your child is in a classroom where there is a food allergy,” the district stated. “Any reference to not allowing pork products in school is incorrect. Please disregard.”

The district said the point of the memorandum was to address food allergies and approved snack lists.
.
The memorandum did not explain why the school had become a pork-free zone, leading to lots of confusion among parents.

“I’ve never heard of a life-threatening pork allergy,” one parent wrote on Facebook.

The no-pork rule generated lots of conversation on Nashville’s talk radio stations and a number of callers and several hosts wondered if it had something to do with students who might be Muslim.
.
“Typical list for a Madrassa,” wrote Nashville radio host Michael DelGiorno on his Facebook page.

Police State Checkpoint Video Goes Viral on YouTube


In an incident in Murfreesboro, a video that was said to be connected with the Libertarian Party that also involved a Deputy County Sheriff A.J. Ross went viral in YouTube. (Photo : Screen Capture from YouTube/PurpleHat1991)

 
Police DUI Checkpoint Video
a Must See, For Citizens and Cops
Over 3.7 million views on YouTube so far.




Again, where are the Democrats and Republicans hiding while our Constitutional Rights are being abused?  Oh that's right, the two big parties are the ones who have ordered, funded and have protected the growing police state in the first place.

Protecting our rights appears to fall to those "crazy" fringe Libertarians and Constitutionalists.

Another question of our constitutional rights arose in Rutherford County, Tennessee on the Fourth of July, and was captured in a video that has gone viral.

A man claims police violated his rights when he was stopped at a DUI checkpoint in Murfreesboro.

 

The checkpoint stop involved a confrontation between 21-year old college student Chris Kalbaugh, and Deputy County Sheriff A.J. Ross. Headlines and Global News reported that Ross initially asked Kalbaugh to roll down his window, but the student refused, saying he could hear the deputy just “fine.” After Ross asked him to pull over, Kalbaugh asked if he was being detained.
Newschannel 5.com reports that the video may have been recorded for political purposes. Kalbaugh is a member of the Rutherford County Libertarian Party. That party said in a statement that they had been concerned about local DUI checkpoints, and asked members to record any confrontations.
Jim Tomasik of Tennessee’s Libertarian Party said, "The Rutherford County Sheriff's deputy trashing a law abiding citizen's constitutional rights on July 4th makes it clear that the very meaning of Independence Day has become lost on the law enforcement community in Rutherford County."


Show us your papers.
Authoritarian governments love to set up random "checkpoints" to bully and intimidate the people to obey their Masters.
.
Notice in story after story about the abuse of our Constitutional rights, 90% + of the so-called "leaders" of the Democrats and the Republicans are either hiding under their desks or acting as mindless cheerleaders for a Big Brother Surveillance State.
