I thought they still taught this stuff in the middle-grades civics classes.  Or was this dropped to make more room for "Enhancing Billy's and Susy's Self-Esteem (whatever that is)" class?

stay safe.

although i belive that was covered in 4th grade along with virginia history and considering that that was 1994 for me, state history may have been deleted from the curriculum by now.
and, FYI, civics is now bundled up with history and geography and refered to as Social Studies. welcome to the 21st centurey.

When did that happen?  Did they send out a memo?  Who says so?

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.
