Teaching Children To Be Thieves And Snitches For The State

Just like in Nazi Germany in the Hitler youth and in communist Soviet Union under the Bolsheviks.
This is a dated video, but it goes to show exactly the thinking of the controllers even a few years ago. It hasn’t gotten better since then.

Who owns your children? Careful now, there is only correct answer, and the test is now, not later.

That video’s been posted multiple times over the past several years, and picked apart each time:
– The message: “Trust your teachers more than your parents,” and why that’s a bad idea on many levels.
– Also, “It’s OK to bring a gun to school if you’re going to give it to a teacher.” Wrong.
– “Can you take this away? I don’t feel safe with it in the house.” Sure, because if you don’t feel safe with it around, why would you just unload (no pun intended) that unsafe feeling on your poor teacher?
– And where in Scripture or the Constitution is enumerated the “right to feel safe”? Which chapter and verse is that? Which amendment?
(As an aside, why the @#$% was he going through his mother’s dresser drawers? The familiarity — that he knew right where to find the gun — shows that wasn’t his first time.)
In the real world, the kid would be arrested and charged with multiple federal felonies. Violation of “gun-free school zones”. Theft. Unlawful use of a weapon (brandishing in front of the teacher, causing her fear). Trafficking in stolen firearms.
And that’s nothing compared with what the teacher would face if she accepted it.
The kid also has no idea about real gun safety, throwing his booger hook on the bang switch immediately after removing it from the drawer (pause it at ~0:26 and look close: his index finger is inside the trigger guard).
It’s a terrible video in every way. So expect it to resurface every so often as “proof” of why gun owners are awful people.

‘With those children, he thought, that wretched woman must lead a life of terror. Another year, two years, and they would be watching her night and day for symptoms of unorthodoxy. Nearly all children nowadays were horrible. What was worst of all was that by means of such organizations as the Spies they were systematically turned into ungovernable little savages, and yet this produced in them no tendency whatever to rebel against the discipline of the Party. On the contrary, they adored the Party and everything connected with it. The songs, the processions, the banners, the hiking, the drilling with dummy rifles, the yelling of slogans, the worship of Big Brother — it was all a sort of glorious game to them. All of their ferocity was turned outwards, against the enemies of the State, against foreigners, traitors, saboteurs, thought-criminals. It was almost normal for people over thirty to be frightened of their own children. And with good reason, for hardly a week passed in which the Times did not carry a paragraph describing how some eavesdropping little sneak — “child hero” was the phrase generally used — had overheard some compromising remark and denounced his parents to the Thought Police.’
