Home Schooling is a Bad Idea. Guaranteed to Raise Poorly Educated Children That are Susceptible to QAnon Brainwashing... and MUCH MORE Goes on at Public School... For Example:

Team Sports... Children Learn How to Get Along With Other People and Work Towards a Common Goal... and IN LIFE there Will Be Many Other People... For Example: AT WORK... It's Useful To Have Years of Practice Getting Along...  

The Bottom Line is That REAL TEACHERS Are Better at Teaching... Especially Science and Math... There Really is More to Science than "God Did It." There is More to Math Than Pushing Buttons on a Calculator!  

and I'm in Favor of Teaching ACCURATE American History... For Example: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQOaUnSmJr8

The Song "Teach Your Children" by Crosby Stills, Nash, Young and Garcia has an Excellent Animation... all about American History... 

Another Thing we Learned in School was SEX EDUCATION... I'm Really Glad I Learned Where Babies Come From...  It Isn't STORKS!

ALSO... I was a Member of the Drama Club and Performed in School Plays... I played Music in Bands and Performed at School Assemblies and At The Teen Club... You Can't do that with Home Schooling...

AWAKEN QAnon FREAKS!

I was Duped - QAnon Shaman
This Post was Motivated by: 
Some Guy on FaceBorg Said:

Ugh I just got an email from a far right group saying homeschooling is best to avoid indoctrination of 'our' children. I've been teaching my son how not to be indoctrinated by anyone, including myself. He will not be indoctrinated in the home and he won't be indoctrinated outside it if I've trained him well enough in critical thinking, reasoning, and respect for opinions across the spectrum of human thought.

One teacher said : "Parents, I don't have the persuasive or indoctrinating powers some of you might think I have. If I had those powers, I'd probably be using it to instill good hygiene and study habits in your kids, but alas I don't" (paraphrase). I loved all of my teachers - even the 'bad' ones as they taught me something else entirely.

tRUMP IS A PATHETIC LOSER. If You Don't Know What That Word Means... Click Here for an Explanation...

If you describe a person as pathetic, you mean that they are sad and weak or helpless, and they make you feel very sorry for them.

Is tRUMP on a Suicide Watch? He Seems So Sad Recently... Is Anyone Comforting Him In His Hour of Darkness? REALLY!

I wish I Had Paid More Attention in High School English Class. Now that I'm Retired, I Write a Lot and Publish on a Blog/Social Media...

It would be really handy to Know Punctuation... I am really Confused because Punctuation in Computer Programming Languages Has a Totally Different Meaning... The Semi Colon is used to end every command... the DOT is Used Just before com in "Dot Com" etc, etc, etc... In English The DOT is used to end a sentence... and then there is CAPITALIZATION! I often use Capitalization to Express SIGNIFICANCE... Like, THIS CONCEPT IS VERY IMPORTANT! However, camelHumpLettering uses Capitalization to Mark the Beginning of a New Word When You Squish All The Words Together when Naming Variables... I justify My Bizarre Capitalization by Pretending My Words are a Guitar Solo and Capitalization is a Wah-Wah Pedal...

In English "/" Means Math Division... For Example: 5/4=1.25 or Alternatives... not a SUB FOLDER in a Disc Drive... http:// and... Why Do I Use So Many Triple dots?

Lucky For Me I Graduated fro College BEFORE The Invention of Smart Phones... Now People try to Use the Fewest Number of Letters Possible Because Entering Text is Annoying and Difficult... With a Typewriter or Computer Keyboard It's Possible to Use ALL TEN FINGERS... but on a phone Most people only use their thumbs... The Language is Now Filled with Acronyms... OMG, LOL, TMA, GTFO, IMHO and then The Reader Has to Look Up What the Acronyms Mean... TLDR... Just So You Know... TMA stands For Too Many Acronyms... DARPA, CIA, LSD, DMT, FBI, DOD, EIEIO... (~);-}

text art (~);-}

tRUMP Invents a NEW LANGUAGE! ---> NotEnglish <--- Words Mean the Opposite of What They Mean in Real English... For Example: a "PERFECT" Phone Call Actually Means "Screwed Up So Bad It Causes Impeachment" - See How It Works?

It's as if tRUMP Lives in BACKWARDS WORLD! 

Everyone SAYS That tRUMP is a Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire but... In BACKWARDS WORLD he is telling the TRUTH!

2+2=5 IS ACTUALLY CORRECT LOOKING AT MATH USING tRUMP-0-VISION! 

REMEMBER: In sdrawkcaB dlroW It's Totally False that Mad King Donald is So Insane that He Has Become a Menace to Society... Because THE RAPTURE WILL "BEAM US UP" BEFORE tRUMP'S DISASTROUS POLICIES KICK IN... and all those Non-Believers will BURN! Ha, Ha! 




How to Wake Up... Step One: Stop Believing Liars. There are people that earn their living lying. For Example: The Heritage Foundation and the CATO Institute will say anything as long as the effect is to Give Rich People More Money.

 Advertisements always try to get you to buy their products even if it causes health problems. Monsanto is currently advertising RoundUP herbicide at the same time as Lawyers are offering their services helping cancer patients sue Monsanto because RoundUP Causes Cancer... 

Grasp the Concept that Trump has LIED over 10,000 times in the last few years. He is truly a LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE. 

Step Two: Learn how to Read. Try reading a Newspaper or a Book... It's a real eye opening experience!

Trump's Ideas about Immigration. Let's Stop Non-Whites from Coming Here.

No one has actually answered Trump's Question about Why we allow people to immigrate from "Shithole" Countries... Why DO we allow them in? Is there ANY advantage FOR US to letting them in?

At the very least we should require them to speak ENGLISH... and an evaluation to see if they can get a job would be nice... SOME immigrants are high quality and make America a better place to live. Specifically, Japanese Engineers and Computer Programmers... Other Asians too.

You may say that I'm a Racist. IT"S TRUE! Racism is Accurate...

Question: What do The Beatles, Leonardo Da Vinci, Steve Jobs, Harrison Ford, George Washington, Frank Sinatra, Isaac Asimov and Albert Einstein have in Common?

Answer: They are Great White Males.

However, Not all Colored Folk are Bad. President Obama was Great! He's a perfect example of Nature VS Nurture... Half White, he had a Black father who went back home to Africa. He was raised by a White mother and two White Grandparents, sent to a White school (with some Hawaiians), then attended a White college and got a job working as a community organizer in the Black housing projects of Chicago. My only question is what is we raised all Black Children in White Homes?

Another question I have is Who Paid Obama to be a Community Organizer? WHY would anyone PAY to have a Community Organized? If you pay a man to paint a house, when he's done you have a painted house. If you pay for a hamburger, you get a hamburger... That makes sense... Paying for goods or services... However, who would WANT to have an Organized Community? Not Me...
Gerald Kellman Hired Obama... Why is still a mystery...

Translation of the song "Guantanamera" as sung by Pete Seeger... and Guantanamericano-the hidden verses…”

I always was confused by the verse:

“Yo soy un puto frijelero nacio en el este de Los Angeles,
Yo soy un puto frijelero nacio en el este de Los Angeles…
Tengo demasiados hijos, ¿de dónde provienen sus ojos azules?”

But Cheech and Chong sang it so I could understand it...
OR you could copy and paste it into Google Translate!
(It's really offensive)

Or is it One Ton of Marijuana? - sung by Darryl Cherney and the Chernobyls!

actual song...
Guantanamera : ( Lady from Guantanamo, Cuba)
Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Y antes de morirme quiero
Echar mis versos del alma

(I am a truthful man,
From the land of the palm tree.
Before dying, I want to
Share these poems of my soul.)

[Chorus (after each verse):]
Guantanamera! Guajira!
Guantanamera!
Guantanamera! Guajira!
Guantanamera!

Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmin encendido
Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmin encendido
Mi verso es un ciervo herido
Que busca en el monte amparo

(My verses are light green,
But they are also flaming red.
My verses are like a wounded fawn,
Seeking refuge in the mountain.)

Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
El arroyo de la sierra
Me complace mas que el mar

(With the poor people of this earth,
I want to share my lot.
The little streams of the mountains
Please me more than the sea.)
