Report: Seattle School Teaches Students To Call Rioters ‘Freedom Fighters,’ Encourages Kids To Bail Them Out

There was a time when Americans of all political persuasions were collectively shocked and repulsed by images of rifle-toting children in terrorist training camps being instructed/indoctrinated in the ways of jihad .
You might be surprised to learn that unfortunately , a not-so-different form of radicalization occurs in U.S. public schools .
In a column this week , Seattle-based radio host and journalist Jason Rantz told an unsettling story about what took place in one of the city ’ s public middle schools in June .
According to Rantz , Rachel Shine , a teacher at Catharine Blaine K-8 School @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 7th , and 8th grade students.
” In the days following city-wide riots that were triggered by the death of George Floyd , Shine prepared a PowerPoint presentation called “ Current Topics : Racism , ” Rantz wrote .

Regarding so-called “ systemic racism , ” the presentation claimed that “ things in America have always been set up this way.

For months , Democrats and the liberal media have been claiming everyone must vote by mail this year to avoid spreading the coronavirus .

‘Absolute Savagery’ as Violent Protest Descends on Racetrack, Leaves One Horse Dead, Others Broken and Brutalized

It happened half a world away , but the violence from an angry mob against innocent creatures feels just as jarring and senseless as when it ’ s in our own backyard .
Fairview Racecourse in Port Elizabeth , South Africa , was the scene of a violent uprising that left at least one racehorse dead , another injured and several missing from their stables , according to The South African .
The group of former employees who police believe were responsible had been fired weeks before for stabbing a racehorse .
They were living in a makeshift encampment on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
They allegedly stormed the facility on Sept. 17 because of a dispute over their pay and unemployment benefits through South Africa ’ s Unemployment Insurance Fund .

It happened half a world away, but the violence from an angry mob against innocent creatures feels just as jarring and senseless as when it’s in our own backyard.
Fairview Racecourse in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, was the scene of a violent uprising that left at least one racehorse dead, another injured and several missing from their stables, according to The South African.
The group of former employees who police believe were responsible had been fired weeks before for stabbing a racehorse. They were living in a makeshift encampment on the racetrack grounds despite a court-ordered prohibition.
They allegedly stormed the facility on Sept. 17 because of a dispute over their pay and unemployment benefits through South Africa’s Unemployment Insurance Fund.
The mob released 28 horses from their stables, hacking at least one to death with a machete-like instrument and injuring others, while also allegedly threatening a female trainer who tried to protect her equine charges.
“I have dead horses, I have injured horses. … They killed one in the bushes,” one of the stable managers told the news outlet.
“This is an absolute nightmare. These people are barbaric, it’s absolute savagery.”
Eleven horses were missing as they fled into the surrounding brush, making it harder for authorities to retrieve them.
“It is a very sad day in this country when innocent animals are slaughtered and abused due to greed and hate,” International Racing Club spokesman Michael de Haast, whose own horses were caught up in the attack, told The South African.
“As Gandhi said, ‘The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated,’ and I fear that our nation has lost its way unless we take a very big stand against this.”
“This is happening at Fairview Race Course in Nelson Mandela Bay,” politician and YouTuber Renaldo “Ngamla” Gouws tweeted with footage apparently from the incident with people flooding onto grounds.

Several of the roughly 100 protesters were arrested following the incident in which they “taunted and hurt” the racehorses, eNews Channel Africa reported.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi truly takes the prize among politicians stoking discord and spreading false narratives in America .
The most recent example is her response to a Kentucky grand jury ’ s decision not to charge police officers in the death of Breonna Taylor .
“ Justice was denied for Breonna Taylor and her family , ” the California Democrat told reporters Thursday .
“ Just think if it were your daughter , your sister , your cousin , your relative , your friend who was murdered by the police and the charging decision held no one accountable for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Murdered ?

Murder is the premeditated , unlawful killing of another human being .
Even the lesser crime of manslaughter , which requires no premeditation , would not be applicable here , because the Louisville police officers were fired upon first .
So what crime would Pelosi like the officers to face in relation to Taylor ’ s death ?
Contrary to the false narrative built up by Black Lives Matter activists and the leftist media , the police officers did not conduct a no-knock raid and break @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Attorney General Daniel Cameron said at a news conference Wednesday that a witness confirmed that officers both knocked and announced their presence prior to entering the apartment as part of a narcotics-related search warrant .
That ’ s when Taylor ’ s boyfriend , Kenneth Walker , opened fire on them , hitting one of the officers .
Police returned fire and tragically killed Taylor , who had been standing next to Walker , during the melee .
RELATED : Report : Seattle School Teaches Students To Call Rioters 'Freedom Fighters , ' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are the facts , according to the attorney general ’ s investigation and the grand jury ’ s determination .
To have charged the officers in Taylor ’ s death would have been an act of injustice and greatly undermined the future of public safety .

Pelosi , the third-highest-ranking public official in the United States , must know this , but apparently she has chosen to sacrifice the people ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

“ But as the virus becomes more contagious it statistically is better at getting around those barriers.
” He added that “ you don ’ t want to over-interpret ” the study ’ s implications .
Study author James Musser of Houston Methodist Hospital said that due to the widespread transmission of the virus across the country , it has had many opportunities to change as it replicates .
“ We have given this virus a lot of chances , ” he told The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ population size out there right now.

Its volunteers are the heart and soul of the operation , and in February they proved that they not only look out for their recipients but for their own , too .
On Feb. 11 , the TLC Community Center posted a video of one of its most dedicated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years old at the time , according to USA Today .

The TLC Community Center in Elizabethton, Tennessee, has done so much for its community. A non-profit food delivery service focusing on families in the rural community, it is dedicated to feeding the hungry as well as giving out baby-related items to those who really need them.
Its volunteers are the heart and soul of the operation, and in February they proved that they not only look out for their recipients but for their own, too.
On Feb. 11, the TLC Community Center posted a video of one of its most dedicated volunteers, Jared, who was 20 years old at the time, according to USA Today.
The woman filming the video, Angie Odom, is the director of the non-profit, and the one who got to unveil a big surprise for the young man.
Jared, a high school graduate, had regularly taken meals to families for years — but he only had his trusty bicycle. He rode it to work and to volunteer, rain or shine, balancing whatever he was carrying as he rode.
While his dedication was admirable, obviously his form of transportation wasn’t ideal. The small town doesn’t have public transportation, and what’s more, the closest college was a 45-minute drive away, so Jared couldn’t attend after high school and was effectively stuck in town until something changed.
One of the members of a local church had just the change Jared so desperately needed. The man’s mother, in her 90s, passed away. One of the things she left behind was a car, and the man wanted to donate it.
“The car was once owned by a woman in her 90s that passed away and her son donated for us to place it with someone in need yet deserving,” Odom said, according to WJHL-TV.
Odom could think of no one more promising and deserving than Jared, so she invited him and his mother to lunch and then gave them the news.
The video, showing the young man crying and repeatedly saying “thank you,” was posted on the center’s Facebook page.
“A young man has volunteered for years helping others riding his bike regardless of the weather,” the caption read. “He couldn’t continue school because after graduation the school bus doesn’t take you to college.”
“He has held down a job riding his bike and in this weather that says a lot. He never complains and always smiles willing to help. God provides just what we knew he needed. God honors and blesses hard work!”
The car was gifted on a Tuesday, and by Friday another gift was made to the young man.
“Update one of the TLC Supporters [came] in and paid Jared’s insurance up for one year!!” an update on the caption read. “God has supplied his needs!!”
Others commenting on the post asked if they could donate gas gift cards as well.
As some commenters have pointed out, this car wasn’t just a way to stay out of the elements in inclement weather, it was a key to a bright new future, an opportunity at a new life.
“I believe in you, Jared,” Odom can be heard saying in the video. “And I know that God’s made a way to help you right now.”

westernjournal--2020-09-25--Busted: ABC News’ ‘Uncommitted Voters’ at Trump Town Hall Revealed To Be Rabidly Anti-Trump

Let ’ s say you ’ re forced to categorize the voting preferences of the following individual based on her social media posts .
She ’ s a self-described “ liberal Democrat ” who said she would “ be there , volunteering ” for Kamala Harris when the California senator was running for president .
She ’ s called President Donald Trump a “ f—ing moron , ” “ pathetic , ” “ pig , ” “ swine , ” “ punk a– ” and “ LOOSER.
” She ’ s said she ’ s a liberal because they “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but by humanity and the needs of the people.
” How would you describe her ?
The individual in question is Ellesia Blaque , a professor at Kutztown University in Pennsylvania who The Washington Free Beacon identified as one of the “ uncommitted voters ” ABC dragged in for a town hall with Trump on Sept. 15 .
The undecidedness of these voters was a critical selling point for the 90-minute event , which was broadcast from Philadelphia .
“ Much has been made about the disappearing ‘ undecided ’ vote in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an article the day of the event .
“ A recent Monmouth national poll found only 3 % of registered voters hadn ’ t decided who to vote for , and an NBC/Marist Pennsylvania poll last week pegged the number of undecided voters as 2 % of both registered and likely voters .
“ But not all voters who have chosen between Trump and [ Democratic nominee Joe ] Biden have committed to voting for one or the other .
This phase of the campaign — with unpredictable formats including town halls and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a race that remains primed for disruptions.
” So apparently , the network had managed to trap the rare white Bengal tigers of the electoral world , assembled them in a socially distanced manner inside the National Constitution Center ( I guess it was pretty easy if there were so few of them ) and gave them 90 minutes to pepper the president with questions .
Here is ABC News explaining the event : So a ) either ABC News wasn ’ t able to find enough of those rare white Bengal tigers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bengal tigers and called it a day or b ) it wasn ’ t terribly interested in ensuring that the voters brought in were undecided in the first place .
Blaque wasn ’ t the only “ undecided ” voter who definitely wasn ’ t undecided , according to The Free Beacon ’ s research into the town hall audience ’ s social media postings .
Philadelphia Pastor Carl Day was also billed as not having made up his mind .
However , in August , just weeks before the town hall took @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never once supported trump and won ’ t now.
” RELATED : ABC Reporter Compares Showing Up at a Trump Rally To 'Taking Your Family with You to Fallujah' “ What I will do is call them out for all their foolery , ” he tweeted Aug. 11 .
On Aug. 26 , meanwhile , Day tweeted , “ I totally get what y ’ all mean when saying ‘ Make America great again.
’ “ Back when the n—–s did what they were told in all industries , wouldn ’ t have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ white establishment and didn ’ t talk back to the cops .
Oh that great America .. gotcha.
” In February 2019 , quote-tweeting a Netflix advertisement that showed a video of Heath Ledger ’ s Joker from “ The Dark Knight ” and the caption “ Name a better villain .
I ’ ll wait , ” Day tweeted , “ Donald Trump.
” In July 2016 , he tweeted that “ Trump ain ’ t no Christian … Many of them aren ’ t. ” The reason they were all billed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was that the individuals “ all identified to [ the network ] as uncommitted.
” As for Blaque , she told MSNBC that she “ really did go [ to the town hall ] with an open mind ” but that she “ decided to bite the bullet and vote for Biden.
” However , here ’ s why she was undecided : “ I didn ’ t know if I was going to vote or not — it was never a question of will I vote for Trump or Biden.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your Tuesday night .
If you ’ re undecided whether you will vote , assumedly because Biden isn ’ t your cup of tea , what you do is show up to a town hall for Trump .
You go through countless layers of security to sit in the same room with the president and others in order to ask him questions .
You ’ re not going to vote for him , but assumedly if he ’ s not as terrible as you think he is , you ’ re not going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s terrible , you ’ re going to vote for Biden .
Lo and behold , he was indeed terrible in her eyes .
Blaque penned a scathing piece for CNN in which she said she ’ d come there to ask the president about pre-existing conditions ( she has a rare disease called sarcoidosis ) and he ’ d interrupted her before she could get her entire question out .
“ He addressed me in a way that made me feel like an inconvenience , rather than his forced constituent ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t vote for him in 2016 ) .
Encountering my question , one that millions of other Americans have , seemed to be a circumstance he had to suffer through to promote his reelection , ” she wrote .
“ Rather than seeing a human being asking for his support and help , perhaps all he saw was a fat Black woman — a metaphoric rock in his shoe that , if not for saving face , he would have begrudgingly removed and resentfully thrown into the Schuylkill River on his way back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feel for Blaque , and I can ’ t tell what ’ s in any individual ’ s heart of hearts , but these aren ’ t the words of someone who sounds like she recently reached a conclusion on whether she was going to vote or who she was going to vote for .
Furthermore , let ’ s say I ’ m a member of the Revolutionary Communist Party and I pass myself off as undecided because I don ’ t know if Biden will dismantle the capitalist system quickly enough @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the wall before 2024 , but I ’ m definitely not voting for Trump .
Do I really count as undecided ?
And if I ’ ve made social media postings where I ’ ve aired my views , might not a major news organization have had the obligation to do its due diligence , given the relative paucity of undecided voters in its audience ?
The Free Beacon reported Day also appeared on CNN to discuss that he ( surprise ) was also disappointed in Trump , saying the president had recited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he probably had no substance behind.
” At the very least , the president probably knew he would get these kinds of “ undecided ” voters and still agreed to do the event .
He was under no obligation to .
At Biden ’ s CNN undecided voter town hall , meanwhile , he faced the kinds of questions that led to quotes like this : “ I view this campaign as a campaign between Scranton and Park Avenue , ” he said .
“ All Trump can see from Park Avenue is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the stock market.
” Watching both events , one got the impression there were few undecided voters at either .
In ABC ’ s case , at least , it ’ s almost as if it didn ’ t even try .

She’s called President Donald Trump a “f—ing moron,” “pathetic,” “pig,” “swine,” “punk a–” and “LOOSER.” She’s said she’s a liberal because they “are not motivated by money or power, but by humanity and the needs of the people.”
How would you describe her?
According to ABC News, she’s “uncommitted.”

“A recent Monmouth national poll found only 3% of registered voters hadn’t decided who to vote for, and an NBC/Marist Pennsylvania poll last week pegged the number of undecided voters as 2% of both registered and likely voters.
“But not all voters who have chosen between Trump and [Democratic nominee Joe] Biden have committed to voting for one or the other. This phase of the campaign — with unpredictable formats including town halls and then debates — represents fresh opportunities in a race that remains primed for disruptions.”
So apparently, the network had managed to trap the rare white Bengal tigers of the electoral world, assembled them in a socially distanced manner inside the National Constitution Center (I guess it was pretty easy if there were so few of them) and gave them 90 minutes to pepper the president with questions.
Here is ABC News explaining the event:
So a) either ABC News wasn’t able to find enough of those rare white Bengal tigers so it just bleached a few regular Bengal tigers and called it a day or b) it wasn’t terribly interested in ensuring that the voters brought in were undecided in the first place.
Blaque wasn’t the only “undecided” voter who definitely wasn’t undecided, according to The Free Beacon’s research into the town hall audience’s social media postings.

However, here’s why she was undecided: “I didn’t know if I was going to vote or not — it was never a question of will I vote for Trump or Biden.”
This is a curious way to spend your Tuesday night. If you’re undecided whether you will vote, assumedly because Biden isn’t your cup of tea, what you do is show up to a town hall for Trump. You go through countless layers of security to sit in the same room with the president and others in order to ask him questions. You’re not going to vote for him, but assumedly if he’s not as terrible as you think he is, you’re not going to vote at all. If he’s terrible, you’re going to vote for Biden.
Lo and behold, he was indeed terrible in her eyes. Blaque penned a scathing piece for CNN in which she said she’d come there to ask the president about pre-existing conditions (she has a rare disease called sarcoidosis) and he’d interrupted her before she could get her entire question out.
“He addressed me in a way that made me feel like an inconvenience, rather than his forced constituent (I say forced because I didn’t vote for him in 2016). Encountering my question, one that millions of other Americans have, seemed to be a circumstance he had to suffer through to promote his reelection,” she wrote.
“Rather than seeing a human being asking for his support and help, perhaps all he saw was a fat Black woman — a metaphoric rock in his shoe that, if not for saving face, he would have begrudgingly removed and resentfully thrown into the Schuylkill River on his way back to Air Force One.”
I certainly feel for Blaque, and I can’t tell what’s in any individual’s heart of hearts, but these aren’t the words of someone who sounds like she recently reached a conclusion on whether she was going to vote or who she was going to vote for.
Furthermore, let’s say I’m a member of the Revolutionary Communist Party and I pass myself off as undecided because I don’t know if Biden will dismantle the capitalist system quickly enough and put the imperialist running dogs against the wall before 2024, but I’m definitely not voting for Trump. Do I really count as undecided?
And if I’ve made social media postings where I’ve aired my views, might not a major news organization have had the obligation to do its due diligence, given the relative paucity of undecided voters in its audience?
The Free Beacon reported Day also appeared on CNN to discuss that he (surprise) was also disappointed in Trump, saying the president had recited “statistics and numbers, stats that he probably had no substance behind.”
At the very least, the president probably knew he would get these kinds of “undecided” voters and still agreed to do the event. He was under no obligation to.
At Biden’s CNN undecided voter town hall, meanwhile, he faced the kinds of questions that led to quotes like this:
“I view this campaign as a campaign between Scranton and Park Avenue,” he said. “All Trump can see from Park Avenue is Wall Street. All he thinks about as the stock market.”
(It’s almost the difference between Wall Street and Main Street. Say, someone should write that one down; it might be a fresh zinger.)
Watching both events, one got the impression there were few undecided voters at either. In ABC’s case, at least, it’s almost as if it didn’t even try.
