Lawmakers: Schools Should Force Students to Watch D’Souza’s ‘America’
Read Time:1 Minute, 0 Second
There was a time when I would have been shocked by lawmakers introducing bills to force schools to screen conservative garbage like “America: Imagine A World Without Her.”Anymore, however, I just shake my head in dismay, because my ability to be shocked by anything the fools on the rights do has been numbed by the very frequency of it.
The resolution also includes D’Souza’s description of the movie as one that “analyzes common critiques of the country’s past, like slavery and the treatment of Native Americans, and ‘zooms in on them to see which parts are true and which are completely false.'”
Florida lawmakers introduced a bill last year that would require students in eighth and eleventh grades to watch the film. The Georgia resolution also targets eighth and eleventh grade, but does not require schools to show the film.
The conservative gadfly was president of The King’s College in New York from 2010-12. He wassentenced to five years probation in September after he pleaded guilty to violating campaign finance laws.

Rachael, I understand what you are saying. Those that have managed to gerrymandered the voting districts in the states to control state houses seem to be trying force the people in this country to accept an unrealistic view of the country.
But Bill why? Why is that allowed? Why aren’t the dems screaming to the heavens? I don’t understand.
OMG! What is happening to my country? If I weren’t so long in the tooth I think I’d be looking for another place to hang my hat. Georgia and Florida. Ouch!
