People's desire to fantasize about committing violent crimes is always interesting.

When they are abusing my children? Hell yeah. 

No greater justification for violence exists than that.

Backwards.    As usual.  Your boogeyman- the one that some districts are teaching/ or want to/ is the fake concept of white guilt. 

Just because you and Fro are hiding under the covers from that mystical, non existent talking point- good luck getting the rest of us to. 
Even if it is as scary or offensive as you're telling me it is, it's still being used as a boogyman to get some folks riled up against some other folks. It's certianly fair to argue that the idea of past malfeasance of a white power structure is also being used as a boogeyman to rile folks up. 

I don't really understand what that second part means. I know people are very mad at this idea and seeking to cancel it with extreme prejudice (to be clear, that's the military use of the word prejudice, not the other lights it's used in). Even canceling it with overbroad legislation that's going to be a real mess to clear up vis a vis the first amendment. 

(On a personal level, I care relatively little about CRT. I suppose that means I'm an outlier in trying to not have super strong feelings about much in the culture wars. Keep my strong feelings for the triple option, certain football tactics and I suppose the dream we can be mostly in this together)

Abusing? 

I mean, it can certianly be taking as a very shitty thing to say. If if all shitty things said to folks were great justifications for violence, we'd be living in some sort of hellscape. 

That said, it's still mostly fantasy. I know you're a smart person and a levelheaded member of society. You know that doing such a thing with the consequences would overall be detrimental to your family and yourself. The desire to fantasize is what it is, I suppose. I can't remember, are your kids even kids anymore? I thought not, but don't remember.

why are you taking issue with him and not sticking to the subject

point is folks on both sides of the isle will not tolerate school children being taught in this fashion

it matters not what you yourself believe rest assured the majority of the American people dont want CRT and are doing things to stop it
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

the subject of... other news?

the public school system has been failing us for decades, perhaps longer

fortunately, it only influences some young people until they go to college which might be worse

Well of course it is a hypothetical scenario. I don't even have kids. But if I did, I would pattern my reaction to this after what you would expect from a black guy who witnessed a teacher calling his son the N-word.
Yeah, the consequences would obviously suck. I'd have to do it in a manner where I was unlikely to get caught.

Yup.. send me particulars and I can zap it right out!
Thinking a cactus rack and changed my mind - laminate plywood paddle with oak/hickory/maple for strength and with plenty of holes for velocity. Or we can just use manhole covers like the Volunteer Navy use to

Chicken and Egg.  It’s not “ being used” to rile people. It’s existence is what riles people- and an outcome of that “being riled” is the vocal opposition and legislation you are now seeing. 
Elected officials- theoretically elected by the people and for the people, are reacting to their constituents who do not want taxpayer dollars used to have this stuff taught to their children because they feel it is racist and divisive.  They feel it borders on Marxism and certainly is anti-American. 

mainly- they feel it will divide us even more, and that is what it is designed to do.
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

So an improvement would be.....what?
Being taught by your parents' version of things?  Learning the sum knowledge of 2 people rather than the many who put together the current system? 
.
Enjoy that shit.
.
Free public education is why ignorant nobodies are able to cry out "We're number 1!" when it comes to the US's place in the world.  It's why millionaires and billionaires are a thing.  It's how automobiles and airplanes became a thing. 
.
If you want to go back to living in a cave and grunting at your neaderthal kin, be my guest.

I would put a teacher in the ICU if I found out that they were teaching my kids to be ashamed of their own heritage.
You would make a poor teacher.

Again, I'm not the caricature you imagine me to be.  You're stating as fact something you literally have zero knowledge about.  Is that what a teacher would do?
.
I forgive you, because you're upset that your kind is being phased out.  It's predictable that you'd react poorly to that.  I'm so sorry that progress isn't your thing.
.
Maybe go pray about it?
