RSSLiberals Strong Arm Heroes Out Of School
J.J. Jackson | March 26, 2008
Here’s another play out of the left wing, anti-soldier, anti-America playbook. When a soldier (and hero) is scheduled to speak, just stomp your feet and complain until the person organizing the event backs down and disinvites them.
A national tour featuring decorated veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan won’t be stopping at Forest Lake Area High School today as planned, after school leaders abruptly canceled the visit.Steve Massey, the school principal, said the decision to cancel was prompted by concerns that the event was becoming political rather than educational and therefore was not suitable for a public school.
He said the school had received several phone calls from parents and others, some of whom indicated that they may stage a protest if the event took place.
“The event was structured to be an academic classroom discussion around military service. We thought we’d provide an opportunity for kids to learn about service in the context of our history classes,” Massey said. “As the day progressed, it became clear that this was becoming a political event … which would be inappropriate in a public setting.
So you have some moonbats making the event political and that is the reason to cancel it? That’s not going to be a standard you are going to like living up to Mr. Massey. Because now every time some moonbat doesn’t like something you are going to do all they have to do is protest and make it “political”. Then you will have to cancel because you have set that standard.
I really wonder how many “several” phone calls really are. Two? Three? Maybe a whopping four?
You’re basically just a coward. Let’s call a spade as spade here. You kowtowed to liberal activists who neither support the war nor our troops (no mater how much they claim otherwise) to continue to promote their own political agenda instead of honoring brave men and women who served this country like you should have.
And what’s more, you should be absolutely ashamed of yourself for treating true heroes this way.
