Communism in Our Schools

In a massive overreach of the federal government, Attorney General Merrick Garland is calling in the FBI to target threats against school boards. He is conducting strategy sessions with law enforcement and does not include the local law enforcement.

Why is this such a huge concern? Why should parents be concerned? There are so many different things wrong with this it is hard to know where to begin.

School boards are local and open to the public. Parents have a right to voice their opinions and problems with the curriculum being taught to their children. Yet according to Terry McAuliffe, who is running for Governor of Virginia, it was not any of the parents' business what is being taught to them in school.

The positive thing of the whole COVID-19 pandemic is that parents got to see what their children were really learning. A lot of it was not good. In some online learning parents were not even allowed to see what the teacher was teaching or saying to their students.

Critical Race theory, the type of sex education being taught to children as young as kindergarten, questionable books that are made available, mask and vaccines mandates are just a few things that have parents concerned. As parents and taxpayers, we have a right to speak up and protest what is taught to our children. 

Our schools affect our local communities and much of our taxes go to helping these school function. We have a responsibility to know what our school board is doing and what teachers are teaching. These children are our future and we should want them to have a quality education.

The FBI is going to open a tip line for anyone to report that they are being threatened. They are claiming these “threats” to school board members will be considered domestic terrorism. 

Anyone can just call and say they are being threatened and you could have the FBI on your doorstep. This should put fear in everyone in how the federal government wants to control your children’s education then they can control your child.

So what can we do to stop this federal overreach? How can we stop this march towards communism? 

As parents and as taxpayers we need to keep voicing our concerns. We need to keep protesting in a peaceful and calm manner. As parents, you need to stay involved with your child’s education and know what is being taught. Check out their textbooks, or any reading material they take home. Ask questions and attend the school board meetings. Get involved with the school system and know the teachers and even run for school board. We can’t make any changes sitting on the sidelines. 

Convention of States is so important to quell the federal government's overreach in so many different areas of our lives.
