Stupid people who don’t comprehend what they read very well believe inaccurately that I am anti-education when in reality I am anti-liberal instruction. If there were other viewpoints reflected in colleges and public education—ones that reflect my sense of conservatism, I would be more tolerant. But I was fighting this fight long before most people even knew there was a battle. My school days were very contentious and my college experiences even worse. Basically I never did yield to the left leaning sentiment of most of the teachers I grew up with, and they were never as obvious about their political leanings as the teachers of today are—and my attitude toward them hasn’t yielded. In kindergarten for me at Lakota it started from day one—I went toe to toe with Miss Mays and was always in trouble. She ended up in a mental hospital. Every teacher I had through the rest of my elementary years called my mother crying about how they thought they were failing me—because I treated them with so much disrespect. My desk was always mess, I had no reverence for their instruction, and I wanted to spend all my time drawing pictures and writing stories. They hoped that my mother would put pressure on me to cease the behavior—but it was my mother who gave me the independence to begin with—wisely before I ever entered public school. By that time there was no going back, even if she did at times want to. And those were the good—peaceful years. I spent more time in the principal’s office and in detention than in class—which was fine with me because it was more time to read and write what I wanted—not what some leftist teacher wanted me to learn.
To show off for his girlfriend teacher at the time my 8th grade gym teacher took my bullwhip from me which I had brought for show and tell, and kept it in the gymnasium to play with in front of his entourage of junior high football players. He did it to show he had power and authority over me. So after feeling bad for half the day I got up in the middle of my English class as my teacher protested and marched down to the gym right in the middle of that guy making a fool of himself with my whip in front of the school’s athletic elite. I took the whip from him, gave a quick demonstration which made everyone’s mouth drop and went back to my class to a parade of harassment from school administrators demanding that I head straight to the principal’s office. That day confirmed it for me, my teachers believed that they were my parents, and functioned from a position that they believed I had an obligation to listen to them—which I did not. I went back to my class and sat down leaving them mystified that I did not have any fear of them. With my whip in my hand I knew there wasn’t anything they could do to me because nobody—not even the athletic gym teacher knew how to use it the way I did and that gave me power over them.
I helped drive my freshman English teacher into a mental breakdown the next year. They were an extreme bleeding heart liberal. I had no interest in learning what they knew—because their mind was a mess. They had no right to stand in front of a class and teach anybody anything. And from there things went severally downhill culminating during my Senior year with a drag race down I-75 with beer and the future Superintendent of Lakota Schools after a year of cat and mouse furiously engaged. That guy tried to pin everything that went wrong at the school on my back out of revenge for my behavioral rebellion.
One of my good friends during my sophomore year was a very tough guy who got into a lot of fights. He was humongous. He wasn’t afraid of anything, because he was literally bigger than everyone else, stronger, and if both those things failed, he was more fearless. He sat across from me in one of my study halls after a weekend where he had gotten into a fight and cut open his knuckles revealing the bone from his victim’s teeth. He left the wound open to close on its own and never went to a doctor. The wound got terribly infected but he didn’t care. He left it to grow closed without stitches for the remainder of the school year. He didn’t fear infection, he didn’t fear losing the hand, he didn’t fear death, he didn’t fear other people’s opinions, and he completely lacked concern. The next year when I had the same type of wound from the same kind of activity where my bone popped out, my ligaments were strung from my hand with pouring blood and it took a plastic surgeon to reconstruct my fingers he saw me in the hall and grabbed my wrapped appendage and laughed calling me a “pussy.” Then he winked at me. His hand was still infected a year later from the same wound which he had broken open half a dozen times. It was his way of telling me I was right, and that he should have went to the doctor—that time. The cops were scared to death of him, and no administrators knew what to do with him. We had in common that we both wished to live free of any chains. He learned from me how to outsmart his enemies and I learned from him how to fight—how to be so certain with yourself that you never had to worry about a confrontation no matter how many people were involved. He eventually got into a fight about 20 years ago where he got stabbed in the heart and died. As time and distance moved between us he resorted back to just raw knuckle fighting which left him vulnerable—and eventually dead. But he lived quite a life. He lived outside of the law, outside of the school rules because no administrator knew what to do with him. He could walk down the hall and call the principal by his first name, grope any girl even in front of their boyfriends and never be challenged, and pretty much do what he wanted any time he wanted. We got along fabulously and had a symbiotic relationship. When he did end up in jail, he got into a lot more trouble of course which eventually pulled him down a vortex where I could no longer reach him. For him, his best times where in school where he could let me piece him together again—because he lacked structure otherwise. The teachers couldn’t do anything for him, but I could. Liberal education made him worse—he needed my conservativism, and structure.
I knew from day one even at a very young age that the school system was wrong, the lines, the recesses, the teachers, the desk assignments, the whole intrusion on personal liberty was designed to break people—and I determined that I would never be broken—and I never was. That has given me the clairvoyance as an adult to speak accurately about the public school system and what it does to people.
A vast majority of the educators in any school system lean-to the political left and they believe inaccurately that their job is to mold us all into some collective fabric of interwoven social blanket for which we are but one silly little thread. They reflect accurately the opinion revealed in the first video on this article. In my experience at Lakota—which was supposedly the best in the area, I can only think of maybe five teachers who were not extreme liberals. By the time I got to my junior year and had been in some high-profile violent acts that were plastered all over the newspapers and television the school finally gave up—except for a few who decided that I would be locked away for my insolence—I did discover a couple of teachers who were relatively decent people founded in conservative philosophy. The rest were bra burning scum bags—old drug hounds and loose moral scum bags from top to bottom. One of my current friends who was a school board member at Lakota during this period will recognize word for word what I’m saying—and can confirm it all and more.
To prove my point there was an article just the other day about an upcoming election featuring Kelly Kohl’s and Shannon Jones, both known as hard-core Tea Party candidates. That article wasn’t all that surprising to me, as I have been covering those kinds of things here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom for a long time. Shannon caved under the pressure of the SB5 defeat along with John Kasich and the Tea Party wants to eradicate them from the earth. Nothing new there—as the emotions are justified. Just because you lose one battle you don’t tuck and run yielding to the liberal menace. You fight them—and you fight them high and low with methods that they can’t fathom until they yield, beg for mercy, and are willing to make a deal for their very life. Then when you have them in that state—you end them. There is no debate. Shannon didn’t do that—so Kelly is challenging her political seat. Well of course this article stirred up comments at the end of it and guess who was the most vocal? Supporters of the education industry were the ones who left the most left leaning comments against the Tea Party. Check below for a sampling of their diatribes and click the link at the end to verify for yourself. That first guy—Scott Malone is a psychologist for two different Lakota schools. His political leanings are obvious and he is the one who advises young people in matters of psychological difficulty.

If the Tea Party was made up of bears, they would all be polar. Maybe some would be Bi-polar, but they would just roll around in the snow a few extra minutes and hope no one notices.

Now this is truly funny. When Shannon Jones is not conservative enough for the Tea Party you know things are really getting screwed up.

Can you imagine what the party purity test looks like ?
What those names have in common is they are either educators or political activists and in public schools, colleges, and labor unions who attach memberships to those activities. Their core beliefs are confirmed by what Paul Reville revealed in his talk at the Center For American Progress recently—a liberal think tank designed to “progress” society into collectivism. “The children belong to all of us,” that is what Reville said, and he’s not the only one. That statement has been said during virtually every school levy campaign in America for years, by more than one pandering politician and bucket loads of misfit parents who suck at instructing their children anything—and want “society” to do the hard work for them. That is the root cause for the collective belief of group ownership of children.
Is it any surprise that Peter Dinklege did pro communist commentary for NBC during the 2014 Olympics in Sochi? NBC apparently did not understand the Twitter backlash when they announced, “the towering presence, the empire that ascended to affirm a colossal footprint. The revolution that birthed one of modern history’s pivotal experiments……………..” Most teachers think the same way as the NBC producers who thought that the Cold War against Russia was long over. Yet what they all have in common is that they were taught in public schools by disciples of the original KGB to push the entire world into a communist state—and they aimed to do it through American schools. I have covered the proof extensively in previous articles for those who are new to this problem. Minds are formed in schools and once the mind is reprogrammed into a liberal thought process, for most people it’s over for the rest of their lives. If they grow up to become Republicans, they end up wishy-washy, watered down people like John Boehner. I know hundreds of them—they think they are conservative, but their educations where teachers believed they were co-parents ruined their minds with a liberal mentality exclusively—as conservatives have been deliberately shoved out of the public education experience. They do not last in the education profession at any level except in the extreme situation where the education institution is decidedly conservative such as Hillsdale, or Liberty.
It does not work to say that just because someone is against the liberal education of America they are against education. If there were openly conservative teachers at my district public school of Lakota, I would feel differently about a great many things, but there aren’t. The further I became involved in Lakota due to my political activity, I found it shocking how much sexual molestation was going on, how many teachers were openly gay, how many support communism, socialism, and Barack Obama and once I learned that it tied right into my own school day experiences where my refusal to be considered “one of their children” got me into a lot of trouble which I am very proud of today. My wife was a straight A student. Once she met me—she dropped down to Ds and Cs because I told her the whole experience was stupid. My very best friend was an Honor’s Society member who sold his robe to a kid for a $100 bucks on graduation day. I am proud to have had an influence on them because to this very day, they are far freer than if they had been pulled into that vortex of social engineering at such a young age. But all the kids I knew back then who did follow all the rules, they ended up watered down versions of their true potential—which was the intent of public education from the very beginning—once the Department of Education was created in 1979. Public education isn’t trying to teach anybody anything—but how to be compliant—and answerable to the collective sum of society. And that makes public education a vile enterprise with sinister intentions confirmed all too well by the comments of Scott Malone—a psychologist at Lakota who should not be in a position to instruct conservative children from conservative families anything. The basic belief that the teaching profession has that “children belong to all of us,” is one that says the shared experiences of Scott Malone’s liberalism is just as valuable as a conservative child’s parents. Anyone in math knows that you can’t multiply “0” with anything and get something back in value. Malone’s liberalism is a “0” while a strong conservative family with a mommy and a daddy who go to church on Sunday may be a “10.” What do you get when you multiply 10 X 0? You get a kid that has zeros in their life where there should be value, and the mind of the child becomes a watered down version of the parent’s instruction—because society with its collective liberalism has entered a zero into the equation, and given a child little value to carry into their adult lives. That is why I’m against public education in the form it is now. Now—put some Ronald Reagan type conservatives in front of a class with a suit, tie, and some firm American beliefs—and we can talk. But until then, it’s a waste of time. I have literally felt this way my entire life—and it’s not going to change now. But what will change when an immovable force interacts with a bunch of squishy minded liberals—is the immovable force will have its way. Mark it on the calendar. I intend to do for many others what I did for my friends during my own school days—and that is help free them from the bondage of a nanny state and the collective ownership of the value in their minds sucked from them by the many liberals who teach public education.
