The school of the future is nothing like we are used to. The Sandy Hook school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut changed everything.

In the name of “safety”, now kids in a South Texas school district who ride a bus to school must have their fingerprints on file to ride the bus. They say the fingerprints “will not be available to outside sources”…. you tell me if you believe that!

Little Daniel Sings “God Bless The USA”

Cindi — Mon, 11 Jun 2012 13:05:06 +0000

You’ve probably heard the story about the New York school principal who decided to scrap the singing of Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” because she “didn’t want to offend other cultures”.

Little Daniel Mitchell is in the class that was supposed to sing “God Bless the USA”, but wasn’t allowed to, so Fox and Friends gave him the opportunity this morning. This has got to be one of the most beautiful versions I’ve ever heard…. straight from the heart of a little patriot!

Child Tells Story Of How "Occupy" Protestors Shoved And Harassed Him

Sammy Goldenstein is a school age boy in New York City who recently had a run-in with the “Occupy” protestors. As they tried to keep bankers from making their way to the Stock Exchange this week, they also made it difficult for children to get to their school across the street from the exchange. Sammy tells his story of how kids were “kicked and hit”, and he also said they need to “get a job”. Watch his story below.

What are your thoughts on this? Have we gone too far when we target CHILDREN? And have we really gone too far when we target children who are escorted BY POLICE? I’m at a loss for this. How do you hit children in front of their parents and in front of police? …in broad day light, no less. How crazed do you have to be to do this?

Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. Or on Facebook.

Occupy Oakland Joins Public Unions for General Strikes, Sanctioned by City

R. Mitchell — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 18:55:28 +0000

In a move rife with irony, the Occupy Oakland movement has teamed up with local unions to participate in a general strike on Wednesday. Not content to just complain about corporate greed, global warming or animal cruelty, the Occupiers have decided to expand their message to include school closures, reform to union benefits and cuts in social programs. Members from teacher’s and nurses unions as well as other unions gathered to meet the Occupy protesters in front of Oakland’s City Hall Wednesday morning. The city government of Oakland has graciously allowed its unionized employees to use personal days or sick time to join the strike. Organizers plan to end the day’s activities at the Port of Oakland, where they hope to “halt the flow of capital” coming into the port. The International Longshoreman and Warehouse Union say they are not able to sanction a strike, but support the movement against “corporate greed that is wrecking America”.

No word yet on whether anyone participating finds it ironic that Occupy Oakland is joining forces with the very unions responsible for sucking up so much taxpayer money that schools and social programs are forced to shut down. America will wait breathlessly to see how many jobs were created at the Port of Oakland once the “flow of capital” is blocked. Stay tuned to Conservative Daily News for more updates.
