Why, when a RED RED RED state does something conservatives don't like, they say 'welcome to the democratic party'?

Also, the lesson plan has not been used since 2010, and the article doesn't say if it was used AT ALL !!!

There has not been a Democratic in charge of anything done by the state since GWB was elected governor. Do yourself a favor and learn how the Texas public education system works. The TEA also says religion can be taught in public schools. There is no curriculum, text book or lesson plans and nobody has formed a class. They could if they wanted to.

There is another way to see this. This is exactly how the Boston Tea Party would be described by any government worker, then media people.

That's the trouble with myopic political parties. Anything my guys do is OK, anything your guys do is an evil, bad Communist plot.

Its still a lesson plan.

Surely Dems think the Tea party of this time are terrorist. The current government thinks the same of the early tea party protesters.

1)its probably not true
2) Common definitions of terrorism refer only to those violent acts which are intended to create fear (terror), are perpetrated for a religious, political or, ideological goal; and deliberately target or disregard the safety of non-combatants (civilians).


The Boston Tea Party
1 - a group attacked the boats (3)
2 - the group destroyed the tea
3 - the tea was private ownership (not a military vessel)


If today the Wall Street Protesters entered the Stock Exchange at night, and destroyed every computer (lets say they did it without hurting anyone)

is that an act of terror?

I'm leaning with no. I am thinking that neither item has the ring of intimidation. . but I could see both ways.

CSCOPE is a statewide curriculum used by many school districts.
It has day to day plans/activities/homework/projects.
The schools I have been in use it page for page as it has the entire year planned out along with TEKS objectives.

I'd like to know how the TEA can say it hasn't been used in 2 years yet it's still in the curriculum the state provides. Did they call up every school district in Texas ?

Whatever made this country great is being destroyed with these teachings.

But if they entered the NYSE during working hours and blew it up to "send a message" then that is an act of terrorism. An act to create fear in people.
