We Must Immediately Kill That Which Is Harming Our Children

The title implies that I am advocating for unbridled violence against some perceived threat against our children. The reader may rest easy, I am only advocating violence against an idea, a concept, but the manifestation of something that is universally dangerous to our children. That something, goes by the name of Common Core. America needs to have a collective bonfire in which we engage in the only book burning exercise that I would approve of, the destruction of all the manifestations of Common Core and return to the educating of our children to state and local school boards.
Dumbing down is a catch phrase that we hear all too often when it comes to today’s educational system, dumbing down, deliberate or not, is occurring and the following paragraphs speak clearly to this point with evidence which must now seriously contemplate.
Illegal and Unconstitutional Creation and Imposition of Common Core Standards
As was documented in Part One, the Common Core State Standards were not created by any state legislators or teachers, instead, they were created by private organizations which derived their financial backing from known globalist organizations such as the Gates Foundation.
Because states that adopt the Standards must accept them word for word and will have no ability to modify or to add curriculum content, the states forfeit their constitutionally mandated authority over public education, which is also resulting in the denigration of parents’ rights.
It is very disturbing that it remains unclear what governance structure will be created in the future to address issues related to the Common Core Standards. What is clear is that the Standards are owned and copyrighted by nongovernmental (NGO) entities unaccountable to parents and students in individual states.
