The Rising Intolerance of Our Public Institutions

Harvard President, Larry Summers, has resigned. His sin? Suggesting that women perhaps lack an aptitude for science and math. Truth? Test scores bear this out. But who cares about truth. Here is a MAN who dared to knock feminism and has paid the price for it. As we know, feminists will not forgive nor forget.

"...Summers becomes the latest casualty in the Fourth Reich's tireless efforts to enforce uniformity of politically correct thought.

...the Reich has taken to the streets to silence a peaceful gathering of Christians in Worcester, Massachusetts, vandalized billboards that dared to question homosexual orthodoxy in St. Louis, and forced Christian high school students in Boyd County, Kentucky to attend re-education -- I mean, sensitivity training classes over the objections of their parents."

If American parents are not careful, they are going to lose their "right" to raise their children. Instead, the "state" will take over that nurturing and produce the best little automatons the world has ever seen. Why with American gung-ho spirit we'll be better at communism than the communists ever envisioned!

In communism, the state determines how a child will be raised. Deciding who will be educated and who will be manual labor based on.....aptitude? wealth? or connections? Shoot, the poor don't have a chance then.

We all KNOW, wink wink, it isn't your abilities that get you anywhere in life.....no, it's WHO you KNOW that does. There goes the destruction of the American dream. That with faith, hard work, perseverance, & determination, ANYONE can achieve and succeed. There is no room in communism for this.

"Earning honorable mention was the Ohio Board of Education, which recently issued an ultimatum prohibiting critical analysis of evolution in Ohio schools. Message to faculty and students: Critical thinking will not be tolerated in our science classes!"

In fact, in communism, there is no such thing as the "individual" or individual thought. Nope, that is too dangerous for such a system. Therefore, the young are brainwashed, oops, I mean trained in how to think~~no original thought.
And the elders? Well, FEAR is always a good motivator and re-educator.

"...the Left" are "intolerant of opposition; the ranking members of the Reich may ease their angst by abusing and disrupting the dissenters."

Recently, here is how they showed their intolerance to different beliefs or thoughts:

• In Worcester, Massachusetts, for example, they forced Christians to pay $6,200 to the local police just to protect against the numerous death threats issued by homosexual activists. But the homosexuals, led by none other than the Mayor Himself, gathered en masse (pun intended) outside the event, shut down the streets, and never had to obtain a permit, much less pay a dime for the extra police necessitated by their actions.
• 
  In St. Louis, Missouri, billboards depicting ex-homosexuals proclaimed, "I Questioned Homosexuality. Change is Possible. Discover How." The messages were sponsored by Exodus International, a network of former homosexuals. Obviously, such hateful statements could not be allowed to go unchallenged. So the leaders of the homosexual activists challenged Exodus to a public debate -- no, wait, wrong story. In fact, the brownshirts did what they do best; they went out in the dead of night and defaced the signs by spilling paint all over them. "Maturity" is not a word that seems to have entered their vocabulary.
• 
  In Boyd, Kentucky, the Gay-Straight Alliance won the right to meet in the schools, courtesy of your friendly neighborhood ACLU lawyers, when the schools gave up and entered into a consent decree. As part of the settlement, the schools agreed to require sensitivity training for all students.
• 
  When the parents learned their children would be forced to attend these brainwashing sessions, they objected and filed suit, raising parents' rights concerns among others. But a federal judge ruled this week that mandatory training was a perfectly legitimate means of furthering the schools' goal of eliminating harassment.

Parents around this country need to start speaking out decisively and if that means boycotting the public schools your tax dollars pay for then so be it. If it means going to jail for a principle than it should be pursued.

To allow the liberals to destroy our nation, our families, our school systems without a fight is WRONG.

"For those having trouble keeping score, allow me to offer a simplified version of the status of free speech in America today: vile epithets directed against Christians are protected by the First Amendment; questions or criticisms by Christians and others of the wonderful world of homosexuality are not protected, but are punishable as 'hate speech' or 'harassment.' Any questions?

So, the discontent of the Left works itself out in the denial of the fundamental rights of dissenters. In other words, they make us feel their pain.

Note that neither logic, nor the Constitution, nor even the scientific method is allowed to stand in the way of the Reich's efforts to obliterate the opposition.

If truth is not tolerated, freedom is no longer free. To maintain our freedom we must fight for truth. Suppression never works. As the Supreme Court observed over 60 years ago, 'compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard.'

There is a once-commonplace expression scarcely heard today, that may be just the medicine for the Left's loathing of the truth: 'Deal with it.' "

I would add that to help them deal with it, takes INVOLVEMENT on our parts. Involvement that shows this intolerance to freedom of speech, to raising our children on our own, and to critical thinking is not going to go quietly away!

So let the liberal left "deal" with that!
