A seventh grade required reading assignment at a Springfield, Ill middle school actually states that Americans must register their firearms in order to have a Second Amendment right.
From the workbook: “This amendment states that people have the right to certain weapons, providing that they register them and they have not been in prison.
Provided to the Illinois Gun Owners Rights Facebook page by a local parent, the required reading makes several blatantly false statements regarding the right to gun ownership.
“This amendment states that people have the right to certain weapons, providing that they register them and they have not been in prison,” the workbook states.
Along with an open ended statement regarding the right to “certain weapons,” the assignment also excludes mention that Americans have the right to “keep” and bear arms.
The parent, speaking on the condition of anonymity, confirmed the assignment to Storyleak and detailed their child’s initial reaction.
“My son was given a workbook at school that is a compilation of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. When they covered the 2nd Amendment, he saw that they were stating that only ‘certain guns’ could be owned and that they had to be ‘registered,’ which he knew was false,” the parent said. “He bought this to my attention as he felt it was wrong to teach these things that aren’t true. I’m extremely proud of my son for his actions.”
“Me and my children are active gun enthusiasts and supporters of the 2nd amendment. I have discussed the 2nd amendment with them several times and explained what it meant and its importance to our country.”
While the parent confronted several school administrators, the workbook is likely to stay in circulation for young students across the state.
“I even told the school officials I talked to that you can’t reword the Constitution to what you think it should be and you should only teach what it is,” the parent said. “We live in a society where children are being taught to fear firearms instead of embracing them and our shooting sports. Heck 50-60 years ago you had police officers coming into schools teaching firearm safety and now we have schools teaching false information and fear. It’s a sad time.”
Unfortunately for young minds across the country, false information regarding the Bill of Rights and Constitution is rampant throughout the public school system.
Schools brainwash kids for the govt. and punish them for spitting back truth
but cant say god”
sounds like more ” commie core” BS , they have been making changes to textbooks for quite awhile …. in GOD we trust ….
It’s up to all the parents to teach their children…are we REALLY surprised that a govt run school is teaching it’s own agenda? This is a battle that if we’re gonna win, it’s going to be won in the living rooms across the nation…families teaching right from wrong and independence to our next generation….we will never win if we allow THEIR agenda to be brought into our children’s lives.
so when do you remove the Teacher’s and the superintendent , principals ,, FOR the teaching of LIES!!! false teachings ! unethical against our Constitution !!! The Time is NOW>>> NOW!!!!!! do not wait !!!
F==K THE MUSLIM OF ORDERING THE UNETHICAL TEACHING OF THE SECOND AMENDMENT TO CHILDREN. A RETIRED MARINE.
Getting taught LIES & Nonsense pathetic
I have to comment on this and say a few things 1. What is history but a fable, written upon by those who have conquered?!?!? 2. Domari Nolo—-Meaning, I WILL NOT BE SUBJUGATED!!!, Meaning I will not be brought under control, dominated, conquered or made a slave/subject this applies to any Country continent government system including the laws and justice system if i was legitimately born a “FREE” person then i am free to chose WHO i will meet or interact socialize with, WHAT i will wear, eat, job i will have laws i will or will not follow what country i give my allegiance to if any, what religion or faith or what i believe in what to have beliefs in if i will people to have power and control over my life such as the united states justice system united states federal government etc. etc., where i live here in the usa canada mexico germany japan africa in a cardboard box or in a castle, how i will live my life poorly or wealthy,shabby or classy slobby or professional. So in short the only time you are truly free is only after death!!! Because you are trapped inside your daddyz’ b******k until you’re released into your mothers womb then trapped there for nine months then to the delivery room where you are trapped by basonets being swaddled hospital walls and your inability to actually maneuver and be mobile then your are raised in a house and a school system that they tell you that you are a free individual but this also is a lie because you are a citizen a subject a slave to the country that you were born in and to the government that rules that country and to the Justice/Law system that they have placed in control over your life yet you’re told that you are free and have free will told you are free to believe in whatever but doing so only makes you a slave to those beliefs same applies when it comes to religion you are told you are free to be a christian a muslim a catholic mormon etc etc but by doing so you are made a slave to those religious beliefs and their guidelines their laws,rules and gods, you’re free to seek the job which you hope for tho its not guaranteed you’ll get the job and if you do you then become a slave to your boss your works rules and regulations guidelines and their corporate beliefs etc etc you’re free to seek emergency medical help but who’s’ to say you’ll truly get that which you seek and if you do its def not free even tho your life depends on it .
