Total Indoctrination
Apr 1, 2014 Commentary, Second Amendment
Progressives have been slowly changing the paradigm of how the nation works and they use propaganda to influence people. Simply stated, they indoctrinate people. While this has been a slow process that took baby steps over the decades we are now in full bore overload. Society is bombarded with propaganda and the educational system has jumped in with both feet to rapidly accelerate the process of indoctrinating our children.
For decades government programs have been introduced and they have been given great names and described as great causes to help people (or, the granddaddy of them all, to help the children). Social Security was passed off as a safety net to help people save for their retirement. It only cost a little and the amount taken would stay small. Your money would be there for you when you retire so you can enjoy life after work.
Ditto with Medicare.
How could people object to such a program? A little each paycheck gets set aside and when they retire, bam, they have money. The money paid into Medicaid will ensure they have health care in their Golden Years.
The reality is these programs were designed to enslave people by making them dependent on government. People did not save as much because they would get a Social Security check. People always figured that money would be there for them. Now the money is gone because government confiscated it and spent it on pet projects. The only way to get it back is to borrow money or raise taxes (or some combination of both). No matter the choice, we have to eventually pay for it. What this means is we pay for this program at least twice.
The people who are (or will soon be) on Social Security are enslaved and held hostage. The parade of horrors is presented and people do not like it. They are afraid that their money, the money they rely on, will not be there so they pressure politicians to raise taxes on producers to cover their current needs. They really don’t care how those working will be affected because they are only concerned about getting their check now. They are held hostage by government and used as pawns to advance an agenda.
The tax system originally did not include taxes on income the way it is done now. The government took care of that by getting an Amendment passed that allowed them to tax all sources without apportionment. Then government devised a scheme that takes a little of your money each pay for taxes. That way you will not see how much of your money they get. The system is further set up to redistribute wealth by sending tax refunds to those who paid little or no taxes. Couple that with people who get refunds and think they are getting money from the government and the indoctrination is successful. The evil rich are continually attacked and the people who pay no taxes are in line to get hand outs or get returns they do not deserve. Just keep my money coming.
If EVERY wage earner paid income taxes and if we were all required to write one big check each year things would change fast. But folks have been slowly trained to accept the current scheme so that they think it is no big deal. If you are not paying any taxes you think the world is grand.
The indoctrination continues with the erosion of the Constitution. The 14th Amendment was never supposed to give citizenship to babies born of people who are here illegally. But the practice has been too use that Amendment as if it did and then give citizenship to babies born of illegals and then pay the families all the wonderful government hand outs. People have learned to accept that scheme because government indoctrinated them with lies and laws that circumvent or ignore our Constitution.
The Second Amendment is under attack. It has been for decades and the attacks of the past have been slow and incremental. Push one law here, one requirement there and people will not object too much. Use tragedies to introduce some new infringing law and get support of the uneducated who are slaves to government.
The process has progressed rapidly here of late. The progressives have invented a term to describe a rifle and that term is “Assault Weapon.” Assault is an action and people take actions. A firearm cannot be an assault weapon any more than a fork can be an assault fork. Both items can be used by a person to assault someone but neither can assault anyone. But that term is used freely by the left so as to instill fear in people and make them want to ban such firearms.
The people are indoctrinated into the progressive belief that these firearms are bad and no one really needs them. The progressives lie about the Second Amendment to further indoctrinate the uneducated and low information people so that they will oppose these firearms. The goal of progressives is to disarm people so they can be controlled. The progressives use indoctrinated people to help in this goal.
It has been accelerated now under Common Core. Our children are being taught that the Second Amendment allows people to own firearms ONLY if they have government permission, are part of a militia and register them.
The Second Amendment says no such thing and any historical analysis of that Amendment will not show these to be true. In fact, the exact opposite is true. BUT, if the progressives in education can make our children believe these lies they will grow up believing that they do not have the right to keep and bear arms unless they meet criteria determined by government. In a few generations adults will come from the indoctrinated youth who were lied to in order to push an agenda of control.
[note]Teach children that homosexual behavior is normal and that marriage does not mean between one man and one woman and they grow up believing that it is perfectly normal for there to be two daddies or mommies and that the traditional family is obsolete. Indoctrination is then successful and society crumbles a little more.
Religion is another area where progressives are indoctrinating our children. The progressives continue to fight to get all aspects of religion, particularly Christian religion, stricken from society. Teachers attack children who pray or express their beliefs. Tell people often enough that religion is not allowed in government and they will believe it. The phrase Separation of Church and State is a prime example of indoctrination. People believe that phrase is part of the Constitution because they have been told that it was over and over again.[/note]
The State of Maryland had a situation yesterday at a university. An Active Shooter alert was sent out telling students and faculty to shelter in place (cower in place). This was done because someone reported seeing a person with a gun. How can a person with a gun be an ACTIVE SHOOTER if that person is not, ACTIVELY SHOOTING? No one reported shots. It was only reported that someone thought they saw a person with a gun.
Turns out there were two youngsters with BB guns (which are not firearms). They were not active shooters.
But by calling it this the university creates the impression that someone with a gun is an active shooter even if that person is not shooting. We get to a point where people are no longer allowed to display any kind of firearm because they will then be an active shooter. The indoctrination is successful in changing a definition and pushing toward getting rid of active shooters by getting rid of guns because any ownership of the gun makes one an active shooter.
There are plenty of other examples each day from unemployment numbers to Obamacare numbers. The lies about the numbers in each case are designed to indoctrinate people into the belief that what government is doing is working. The fact that the economy remains in the toilet and that the real unemployment numbers demonstrate complete failure are hidden under the rug to push that agenda. Get enough people to believe you are doing a good job and they will keep putting you and others like you in office.
We hear how 7 million people have allegedly signed up for Obamacare. The progressives tout this as a major accomplishment and say it proves Obamacare is working great and that people want it. The real story is not told. No one knows how many of those who signed up actually paid their premiums. No one knows how many of them were placed into Medicaid (welfare taxpayers foot the bill for) and no one ever discusses the reality that even if all 7 million paid in to real plans it is still failure.
You see, Obamacare caused 6 million people to lose their health insurance so at best there is a 1 million net gain. No one is discussing how many healthy young people are part of this group because they are not flocking to sign up. The entire mess is a failure but progressives hide the facts to fool the uneducated and to enslave people to government. Once the plan is in full force it will never be repealed and the progressives know that.
Obamacare will eventually get to where Social Security is. It will cost too much and be unsustainable but it will have enslaved so many people they, like the elderly, will be enslaved and held hostage by a government program.
Do not allow yourself and your children to be indoctrinated. Do not believe what government tells you. Government is not there to make your life easier or to provide for you. All governments eventually enslave their people and abuse them.
We have a whole lot of people who are already on the plantation and will have many more if we do not stay vigilant. Teach your children to reject the lies. teach them the truth.
Better yet, send them to private schools or home school them.
Our country’s future depends on free thinking people who are not mind numbed drones indoctrinated by the elitists.
Push back. The most powerful weapon in the world is knowledge. They can never take that away and they fear well informed people. Yes, firearms and the Second Amendment are important but the firearm is the tool. The person is the weapon and a knowledgeable person is the most dangerous weapon of all.
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

More Indoctrination Of Our Children
Mar 22, 2012 Political
A teacher in Virginia gave students an interesting assignment. They were to research political candidates and find things that opponents could use against them during a campaign. The students were assigned to do what is known as opposition research. The teacher did not tell them what to look for or where to find any information, just to find items that could be used against political opponents.
So far this sounds like an interesting assignment. It would be a great exercise for the students and they could develop their research skills at the same time. They would learn what opposition research is and how the information could be used and they would also learn how campaigns conduct such research.
If that had been the assignment then things might have been great. The problem is the teacher only assigned them the task of finding information on the Republican candidates seeking the nomination to run against Barack Obama. That’s right, the teacher divided the classroom into four groups and each group was assigned a Republican candidate to research.
While this is problematic it might still be manageable. The teacher could claim that since the four Republicans were running against each other the students could be conducting opposition research for one of the Republicans to use against the others. It would be an issue because it would expose the students to negative items about the Republicans but not to the current occupant of the White House but it could still get a pass depending on how it was presented.
The problem arises in the fact that the teacher not only failed to assign a group to do opposition research on Barack Obama but also instructed the students to write up the opposition research and to send it to the Obama campaign.
Some parents complained about the activity and the school quickly came to the teacher’s defense claiming that the instructions never included mailing the information out. The claim is that the students were to produce an address where they would actually mail it (you know, if they were really going to, wink, wink).
This does not square with what students told parents. It also presents a problem in and of itself. What is to stop the teacher from taking the student’s work and mailing it to the Obama campaign?
While I think the original idea could have had merit the teacher’s actions demonstrate that the information cannot be entrusted to his care. He could claim the students will not send it off and then do so himself.
This needs to be shut down OR they need to select four historical candidates and research them instead.
The schools are indoctrination machines for the federal government and the progressives in it.
We must remain vigilant if we do not want our children brainwashed by the collective on the left.
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

More Indoctrination Of College Kids
Jan 2, 2012 Political
The indoctrination of our youth continues to inch down to lower and lower grades each and every year so that now we have children singing the state sponsored praises to Dear Leader Obama (one of the four greatest, by his own estimate) instead of actually learning valuable lessons of life. Sure, they learn how to game the welfare system, how to apply for and exploit the free lunch program and how to play the victim card before they know how to read but at least they are good servants of the regime.
No wonder so many of our youth have grown into people who think there is such thing as a free lunch. It is free to them but someone else paid for it. This is what the Occupy folks want, other people’s property (OPP).
The indoctrination has been going on for years in our alleged institutions of higher learning. It is even more evident today as Columbia University will now offer a class in Occupy Wall Street. The class will require some field work as students get to participate in the “movement”.
Imagine that, the kids will pay for a class and then they will be used as tools of the left to participate in the left’s anti government protests. This is pure genius on the part of the Socialists at Columbia. Offer a class on protesting and make kids pay for the class then use them to protest for you. Make them pay to work for you. Brilliant.
And the mush heads who attend this school will line up to participate. They should offer a class called Useful Idiots.
I have an issue here though. If this is all about the Occucpy movement and the idea that the man has the money and that the 1% needs to have it removed from them to give to others, shouldn’t Columbia be offering the class for free?
The EEOC has warned that requiring a high school diploma could run afoul of the ADA. I wonder if employers will be allowed to request college transcripts to see if their potential employee has taken a class on Occupying Wall Street.
Here is an idea for Columbia. How about you get some folks in your school to teach the Constitution. Not in the liberal, living document way, but in the manner in which it was written and intended to be used. There are plenty of folks qualified to teach that but you will likely not find them on your roster of professors.
They are too busy violating the rights of others as part of the FLEA Bag occupy movement.
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

How Obama Can Give A Good Message To School Kids
Sep 6, 2009 Political
Barack Obama will deliver a speech to school children across the country and it is unprecedented. I know a couple of people who claim that George H W Bush did the same thing but this is inaccurate. Bush gave a speech at a school, it was picked up on broadcast media and schools tuned in. Obama is directing his speech to all the schools.
I certainly believe that Obama will give an innocuous speech. There has been too much focus on the issue for him to play politics though the text has yet to be released, so who knows? Obama is forging a path. He gets schools to allow him in, can see what school systems opted out, and can make future requests to give a speech to schools based on the precedent he will establish. Though he will likely tone it down, the teachers will probably use the experience to push favorable attitudes about Obama.
There has already been one change because it proved controversial:
Original:
Write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president. These would be collected and redistributed at an appropriate later date by the teacher to make students accountable to their goals.Revised:
Write letters to themselves about how they can achieve their short-term and long-term education goals. Teachers would collect and redistribute these at an appropriate later date to enable students to monitor their progress.Compiled at National Review Online [all emphasis mine]
The part about what a student can do to help the Dear Leader was just a little too contentious and smacked of politics. The revision is more appropriate for school children. These items came from the Department of Indoctrination Education. The change probably came as more school systems opposed the intrusion by Obama.
I understand those who say Obama is just concerned for the children and wants to encourage them to do well in school. He wants to make sure they have motivation to do well. At least one commenter here has said there is nothing wrong with it.
Perhaps not. But if Obama wants to encourage children to do well in school and to show them that hard work and a good education pay off perhaps he should release his college transcripts. Perhaps he should have every school he attended release his records without redaction so that school children can see what hard work will do. If one wants to encourage school children then it is better to show them the results of hard work rather than preaching to them to do well.
Kids want to see these things for themselves.
So what say Barry, will you release the records from every school you attended in order to inspire the school children?
You libs always say the things you do are for the children. Will you put your money where your mouth is and actually do this?
After all, it is for the children…

Dear Leader Obama Set To Address The Youth
Sep 2, 2009 Political
Barack Obama will be giving another address on Tuesday September 8th but this time the target is every child in an American school. Barack Obama is set to be broadcast to every school in the country. This kind of reminds me of the dictators who address people who have no opition with regard to attending. Dear Leader Obama will give his speech to the school children and maybe he can get them to join the Hitler Obama youth corps where they can listen in on the conversations of mom and dad and report them if they oppose health care overhaul.
There is an agenda, or to do list for the little children to use in order to be worthy of listening to the Dear Leader. Here is a list of what the future Obama for America youth can do.
Why is Barack Obama beaming his big ears into the classrooms? Are schools required to participate or is this an option? What happens if certain children do not want to participate?
There is no significant event taking place that would require this kind of event. This is not like when man landed on the moon or when a former president is buried. There is no major item taking place that justifies this.
This is unprecedented and involves what I consider an intrusion into the classrooms across the country. Our children go to school and should be free from these kinds of interruptions especially when there is no good reason for this to take place.
What is the purpose? Is it indoctrination of our children at a young age while they are held captive by members of the teacher’s unions (who are in bed with people like Obama)?
I don’t know but I think this is wrong and I would have a problem with this kind of thing no matter who the White House occupant was. If there is no significant event justifying the appearance of Obama then one has to question the motive.
He might want to extol the virtues of a good education but that could have been done with a video that is played when the school felt it appropriate.
No, he has a captive audience and he can use the children to send the messages about his agenda home. The potential for abuse is too great and after the event is too late to act if what is said is inappropriate.
If I had school aged children I would keep them home on the 8th.
UPDATE: Looks like the Obama Administration had a hand in helping to craft the assignment for the school children. The guidance has since been changed:
The Obama administration is rethinking its course recommendations for students ahead of President Obama’s address to the the nation’s schoolchildren next week, rewriting its suggestions to teachers for student assignments on how to “help the president,”
The Washington Times reported Thursday that presidential aides acknowledged they helped the U.S. Education Department write the suggested assignments, which stirred criticism by many who say Obama is trying to indoctrinate the education system. Fox News
This is one reason that the idea is inapporopriate. There is politics written all over this though I suspect Obama will tone it down and use caution. The intent has been discovered so he will be watched even more closely.
