The following was emailed to all Washington state Senators and Representatives. It is time we started speaking the truth and standing by it. It is time to hold our elected representatives accountable. LynnS

In the last year there have been a number of incidents in which children have killed teachers and students on school grounds. This has happened in Washington, Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Pennsylvania and Oregon that I am aware of. On the same day that the Springfield, Oregon, incident happened, a Washington youth stepped off a school bus in a district north of Seattle, then shot himself through the head. In a two year time frame, in the Moses Lake area, a youth killed his teacher and three other students; the cousin of one of his victims killed his mother, sister, and himself; and four youths killed an elderly couple because one youth had a grudge to satisfy.

Why wasn't this happening six years ago, ten years ago? The commonality in all of these incidents is Goals 2000. Far fetched you say--not hardly. At the time of the Moses Lake incident, I told several legislators that unless and until the matter of what these kids were being exposed to in the classroom was addressed at the state level, this was going to keep right on happening--and time, sadly, has borne that out.

Education reform is not about educating for intelligence, it is about process, it is about modifying and changing a child's behavior to produce the wanted society, the wanted work force of the 21st Century. The techniques being utilized are techniques that should only be used by clinically trained and clinically licensed medical personnel and then only under certain circumstances. The use of these techniques by teachers in a classroom setting constitutes medical malpractice and the result is kids who are powder kegs waiting to go off--kids who take guns to school and murder teachers and classmates. As I told legislators at the time of the Moses Lake killings--you are only going to twist some minds so far before they will snap. Minds are snapping.

I have a curriculum, obtained via the Nine Mile Falls School District, entitled "Language Circles." In the front of the book, it instructs the teacher in the methods of creating conflict in the child to attain the wanted behavioral change. I obtained the curriculum via a Mother whose child was being exposed to this curriculum. The child was having nightmares!!!! When I looked at the curriculum, I could fully understand why. The curriculum is sordid, sadistic, masochistic. When the parent complained to the teacher--the wife of a minster--the teacher told the parent that she (the teacher) hoped the parent wasn't "imposing her moral values on the child." To give you some idea of what the curriculum included, the following is an outline of one story from this curriculum:

The young boy, Fles, escapes from the "establishment" in which he resides, to the "nature" beyond. He plays in a stream and accidentally breaks the mask covering his face. He has been told that if he sees his face, he will die, so he curls up on the bank, waiting to die. When he doesn't, he realizes how beautiful his face is, and that the mask isn't necessary and races back to the "establishment" to tell everyone they don't need to wear their masks. The final paragraph of the story reads, "'Please,' he cried, but they didn't hear. A tear ran down his cheek. He didn't struggle as the gray synthetic bag dropped over his body."

Can you imagine the effect of this story on the mind of young child forced to read it by a teacher? Can you comprehend the debilitating effect of such a story on a young mind? Yet children are being exposed to stories such as this, even ones worse, on a daily basis in the classroom under education reform. Another prime example is "The Giver" in which the child is exposed to graphic infanticide, sadism, masochism and a warped sense of reality.

As you may or may not recall, a copy of "Rage" by Stephen King (under a pseudo name) was found by the bed of the boy who killed the teacher and three students at Frontier Junior High in Moses Lake. What do you expect when kids are being exposed, on a daily basis, not to mind expanding works of literary accomplishment, but to mind numbing and mind altering garbage, most of which is sadistic, masochistic and sordid?

This material isn't what parents are shown on "curriculum night," it is supplemental teaching materials that most parents aren't even aware exists. The Future of Washington Schools Project survey shows that 86% of all parents haven't a clue what ed reform is about. These parents haven't a clue that teachers are no longer teaching from textbooks!!

Parents still believe that teachers have the same moral standards and principles as they do; they trust that the teachers are the "experts." In too many instances, that trust is misplaced. In others, teachers do not themselves understand what they are doing--they are simply doing it because they have been told to and they don't stop to think about what they are really doing. Yes, parents have a responsibility to know what their child is being taught, but exactly when has the debate on ed reform ever taken place--who from the state has taken the time to truly be honest with parents about the realities of ed reform and when has that happened? The fact of the matter is that it hasn't. Parents have purposely been kept in the dark because most don't have the time to do the research that a few grassroots activists have done. They are too busy trying to pay the excessive taxes being burdened on families to support the programs destroying families and children!!!!!

Couple these curriculums with the DARE program that teaches children that taking a gun to school is a "choice" that the child must make. It doesn't say, "Guns kill;" it doesn't say, "guns don't belong at school;" it doesn't say taking a gun to school is wrong; it says taking a gun to school is a choice, and if you choose to do it, it's okay because you choose to do it. What do you expect? You don't tell a child that such is a choice, you tell them that it isn't a choice. Children must have limits. If they aren't given those limits, they will seek those limits--even if such is destructive to themselves and others!! Moral relativism, values clarification, and non-directive education are destructive, pure and simple.

As I have stated repeatedly, unless and until our Legislators are willing to stop sticking their collective heads in the sand and start addressing the realities of what children are being exposed to in the classroom on a daily basis, the killings are going to continue. You can continue to blame the problem on children's access to guns (the media bent) but children have always had access to guns. It was not until the last ten years in which children have been immersed in behaviorally modifying techniques in the classroom that this problem has occurred. While these techniques have been perfected in classrooms over the last thirty years, children have not been immersed in them to the extent they are now being immersed under Goals 2000 and School to Work.

This post from Lynn is quite insightful. It is a message we need to understand. It is not enough to fight the anti-gun laws. We must fight the indoctrination which is subverting our children! Please pass this on to every appointed and elected official, and to every parent and grandparent you can reach. Print it out in hard copy for the ones who aren't on the net. This is important.

Representatives and parents need to take a long, hard look at how education has been corrupted. It has become indoctrination. Please make it a project to examine every text, every lesson plan, and every policy which may be contributing to the destruction of our society through the destruction of our children's morality by the very people we've trusted them to!

There is a reason why Home Schooling is growing exponentially. Parents who have looked at their kids' schools and teachers are taking their children away from the war zones and away from the mind-scramblers.

When children/teenagers face the difficult challenges of emotional growth (how to deal with love, rejection, embarrassment, jealousy, loneliness, frustration, anger, etc.) without any moral foundation or guidelines other than "there is no good or bad, only your personal choice" the headlines we see today should not be surprising.

The Friday, May 22, 1998 edition of Santa Rosa, California, Press Democrat newspaper carried a front page headline "Oregon school rampage" and devoted 37 paragraphs to it. Inside on page 6 the headline was "School violence escalating" and used 18 paragraphs to discuss THE PROBLEM of guns in school.

But isn't it interesting that a story in the same paper on the same day about how 15 year old Kimberly Dotts in Clearfield, Pa. was tied to a tree and clubbed to death with a rock by her 16 year old friend, Jessica Holtmeyer, rated the smallest headline on page 3 and 8 SHORT paragraphs.

Either the press as a whole is to stupid to realize that the misuse of guns is NOT the problem, or we are being INTENTIONALLY misled into thinking it is. Are we also INTENTIONALLY being shielded from a close look at what moral values, or lack thereof, our children are being taught in school?
