[One Chicago-area middle school actually pressed criminal charges against Christopher Columbus in a 2017 mock trial].

  1. How is this insanity even happening. Is everyone in this country so easily brainwashed into buying this garbage? And why is this even allowed in our schools? Who’s letting them get away with it?
    For decades now it’s been a constant drumbeat of anti americanism.
    If someone knows an organization that’s fighting this I want in on it.

  2. Yep, if Christianity and Judaism are banned from public schools because of atheist assholes, then Mohammedanism needs to be banned too. All or nothing.

    I take it that the middle school in question has never taught about or studied Christopher Columbus.
