Yes, we lack the culture of political indoctrination of school children, and reporting our neighbors anti-government comments to the secret police for extra food, that makes action next to impossible I suppose we could expand Guantanimo and fashion it after Siberian gulags...

The real difference is the modern media today and the effect it has on our government. The American public really doesn't tolerate images of children being bayoneted or villages being wiped off the map (unless, of course, it's in the name of anti-terrorism and happens to brown people on the other side of the world. Oh, and a Democrat has to be in the White House.).
Ironic, for shatner to be spewing indoctronation as any indoctrination has occurred in US schools over the last decade (and probably going back to clintoons era), it has come from liberal teachers, advancing socialist ideals of the LEFT.  I'd also say that those generations of imbeciles are just now beginning to realize their influence on the US.

And Jay, those last 2 sentences of yours are telling.  What ever happened to Cindy Sheehan?  She was used by the media like Kleenex.

I read this article the other day. The bias is clearly obvious by the title alone, though some points are valid.

The Right Calls Obama a Dictator, but Sarah Palin Disarmed the Alaska Civil Militia

In 2008, the Anchorage Daily News ran this deck bellow the headline: “NO MORE GUNS: Alaska State Defense Force stripped of many powers.”

Irony knows no bounds when it comes to the Tea Party.

In 2008, Tea Party Queen and Shoot ‘Em Up and Hang ‘Em Governor Sarah Palin (R-AK) disarmed brigade members of the Alaska State Defense Force (think volunteer militia) at the recommendation of the state military officials, based on a report by an investigator with the Washington National Guard.

In a major decision proving unpopular with at least some of the force’s roughly 280 members, the state is taking away the brigade’s guns.

Yes, Sarah Palin, as executive of the state, took away their guns. And no, conservatives, you can’t have it both ways. Clearly they gave Sarah Palin the report and she took executive action on it (also known as “tyranny” when a Democrat does it).

“The report does not say Westall was a bad commander,” Campbell said. “The report says the state defense force, it’s a voluntary organization, it’s part time, it’s dedicated volunteers serving their state, but they don’t have the intensity of training, the skill sets the National Guard has.”

As a result, Campbell recommended to Gov. Sarah Palin that brigade members should no longer be armed.
The state also read a report on said militia, and yet the state was not accused of hating Republicans. Do not try this on a national level.

Have the opportunity to get a Knight's SR-15 E3 for a decent price. Might jump on it. Always wanted one in FDE.

Texas has just had their history textbooks rewritten to paint the country as a more Christian state
Cynthia Dunbar, a lawyer from Richmond who is a strict constitutionalist and thinks the nation was founded on Christian beliefs, managed to cut Thomas Jefferson from a list of figures whose writings inspired revolutions in the late 18th century and 19th century, replacing him with St. Thomas Aquinas, John Calvin and William Blackstone. (Jefferson is not well liked among conservatives on the board because he coined the term “separation between church and state.”)

“The Enlightenment was not the only philosophy on which these revolutions were based,” Ms. Dunbar said

Does it really matter what schools do to their history curriculum when 99% of the students don't give a shit about it to begin with? Might as well be Mr. Garrison giving Game of Thrones plot lessons.

The best material will fail when unenthusiastically delivered to a snoring audience.

No need to be sarcastic. I was exaggerating for dramatic effect. But the point still stands: history generally seems to be taught by uninterested teachers to uninterested students. There are a few exceptions, but it only really gets better at college level.

To be honest, three Christmases ago I met a distant cousin from Puerto Rico at a family gathering. She was fair skinned and had big boobs. I don't care if she was my fourth cousin I would have been dtf. I would post a picture but I don't have her on FB and if I call my mother to ask her her name that would be suspicious.

So I'm not holding anything against Mormons for their practices.
