The other day I read two different stories from two different states. These two stories were not related to each other except in “OMG! What is the USA coming to?”
From BlazeMedia:
“A North Carolina high school student was suspended last week because he dared utter the phrase “illegal alien” in class.
Last week, Central Davidson High School student Christian McGhee asked his English teacher an otherwise innocuous question about a vocabulary assignment that included the word “alien.”
“Like space aliens or illegal aliens without green cards?” McGhee asked.
The question allegedly prompted a fellow classmate to threaten McGhee because he felt offended by the question, according to the Carolina Journal, which caused the teacher to phone the assistant principal. School administration then decided to suspend McGhee for three days.
The violation? McGhee made a “racially insensitive comment” that allegedly violated school policies, according to a school document.
Christian’s parents later met with the assistant principal to appeal the suspension. They explained the phrase “illegal alien” appears in the dictionary, federal code, and numerous media outlets. But their efforts were unsuccessful as Christian llegedly violated school policies, according to a school document.”
OMG! These ying-yangs are in charge of teaching our children!
Meanwhile, also from BlazeMedia:
The Indiana Department of Child Services had a male minor suffering from both anorexia and gender dysphoria removed from the custody of his loving, traditional Catholic parents in 2021, even though Mary and Jeremy Cox were getting him help.
The Coxes’ refusal to compromise on their deeply held religious convictions and affirm the so-called transgender identity of their 16-year-old son appears to have been a driving factor behind both the DCS’ initial investigation into the family and the state’s subsequent efforts to keep the teen — referred to as A.C. in court documents — out of his familial home.
The parents fought the state every step of the way but had no luck in the trial court or the appellate court.
OMG! These courts are deciding what is legal for parents to do and not to do with their own children according to their religious beliefs!
The good news is that in both of these instances the families have hired lawyers.
