Consider moving to Hamilton (Mercer Co.). You’d at least have something right here. The school district is surely as looney left as Burlington’s, and our mayor is a big lib, but our township council has a veto-proof 4-1 Republican majority. Not surprisingly, our taxes are the lowest in the county, for which, not surprisingly, the Democrat mayor takes all the credit.

Regarding what happened half an hour down US Route 130 in Burlington, groan! I won’t say it couldn’t happen from some nutjob sullying the name of Christ, but I can think of many more likely sources. Frankly, I think today’s anti-war movement would be more likely to go completely unhinged like that, but it wouldn’t be PC to label them that way in a drill, now would it?

In a hostage takeover exercise. Schools should practice these types of things, but I think some realism needs to be injected into the script.Can someone tell me where a christian terrorist group has done anything lately? Are there christian terror…

They admit that they would expel a student for praying before class? Wow.

I glad this rule wasn’t in place when I was going to school…..I would have been expelled every day fro every class. “Please God get me through this test, class or hour.” Or “Please God have ___________ (enter favorite hotties name) say yes to the date, dance or whatever.”

Something about “in a handbasket” comes to mind.

We really should start cracking down on all the right winged nutjobs. I submit myself for detention and I’ll chain myself to the horizontal brass pole in front of the vertical one.

I seen that too.

“Somebody snuck a snuke in her snizz.”

lol

This is so stupid. How about an eco-terror group, attacking the school for serving hamburgers and chicken tenders in the lunchroom? Or an animal rights group attacking the school for disecting frogs in science class? Or, perhaps, a muslim group attacking the school because the team’s mascot is a wild boar? No no, let’s make it a Christian group attacking the school for not letting a student pray, because we all know *they* won’t cut our heads off. What does that say about how these people view muslims? What, are ALL muslims terrorists? You think you can’t have “muslims” in your training because, what, they might turn *violent* or something??? Whattaya tryin’ to say about muslims, huh?

With that episode in mind, I must point out the fact that the Hilldog (as they call her in SP) was just HERE IN NEW JERSEY YESTERDAY appearing with our ethically-challenged Governor Corzine not too far from the above school in Burlington Township.

Don’t miss the scene where they have the Hildabeast in stirrups to remove the snuke. Imagine being the one who drew the short straw for that task. It’s HILL-ARIOUS!

Just in case I can’t get that link thang to function you can cut and paste the web address (I have no connection to it other than I frequent it regularly to counterbalance all the Rosie/Pelosi/Penn/Streisand… insanity).

Two Burlington Township police detectives portrayed the gunmen. Investigators described them as members of a right-wing fundamentalist group called the “New Crusaders” who don’t believe in separation of church and state. The mock gunmen went to the school seeking justice because the daughter of one had been expelled for praying before class.

First of all, does this group, the “New Crusaders” even exist? A quick search turned up nothing for me. Second of all, can they site one example of anything remotely close to this ever happening (I can however site the Columbine killers, one of whom was wearing a shirt that read “Natural Selection”). Also, a girl wouldn’t be expelled for praying before class, that’s retarded.

But above all else, would such a radical even have their daughter attending public school in the first place? Give me a freakin’ break.

As long as no Muslims’ feelings were hurt in this staged situation, we can all go about our business.

Waiting for the embassies to start burning…waiting…waiting….

Yes, he knows who I am, psycho.

If it makes you feel good to call others names, Ms. Post, have at it. We’re just observers of your game, that’s all.

The mock terror attack involved two irate men armed with handguns who invaded the high school through the front door.

It’s the Columbine High School scenario mixed with right wing extremism and religious fanaticism for dramatic effect. I’m surprised they didn’t include some of the “Going Postal” scenario and make these guys Gulf War vets dressed in postal uniforms as well.

Yes, because there are just numerous instances of right-wing crusaders committing acts of terrorism these days, aren’t there.

You’re preaching to the choir. I’m not saying it’s RIGHT that PC-ness and appeasement are winning. I’m just saying it’s TRUE.

Well, part of the irritation is that they’re obviously thinking of Muslims here (”Crusaders”?) and just as obviously consciously choosing a different group so as not to give offense.

Ah, I see. (Sorry, I was leaving work and missed this.) The way I see it, if they say it’s Xtians, they make some people mad, admittedly unfairly. If they say it’s Radical Islam, they get to be fair, but they get sued by the ACLU and the local taxpayers foot the bill. Which one will blow over faster?

Maybe they’re thinking of banning headscarves like that school in Paris. ;o)

180 degrees? If someone had a gun to my head and was muttering “God is great. God is great.” over and over in English, would I be any less freaked than if they were saying it in Arabic? Hmm. Nope.

More like 90 degrees.

Yes, because there are just numerous instances of right-wing crusaders committing acts of terrorism these days, aren’t there. Hell, you can’t even turn on the news these days without hearing about some skinhead/Richard the Lionheart-wannabe killing dozens of innocent civilians, can you?

Nonfactor on April 3, 2007 at 7:11 PM

And there are no white radical Muslims?
