Haha I see that the socialist youth camps are coming along just fine!
Wtf we watched it live on TV
1) Insurrection Vs. Peaceful Protest.
2) Melitia / Radicalized Trump Supporters did it Vs. ANTIFA/BLM did it.
3) 5000 dead People voted in Georgia Vs 2.
4) Domestic Terrorist Vs. Tourist visiting to see the statues in the Capital.
5) Trump promoted the violence Vs. Trump condemn the violence.
6) Aliens from Outer Space are to blame Vs. Trump supporters are stupid.
They Should Be Taught The Truth and Nothing But The Truth!!!
Sure waste kids times with something we've been hearing about for a year. Just make sure to include the antifa and blm riots as well for the sake of accuracy
I am all for teaching about this event. However, both sides must be presented. I fear it will be a one sided as presented by Democrats on the recent anniversary.
I am glad my children are now fully grown and I taught the Common Sense & Logical thinking.
Students will be taught on life in the Biden police state.
History teachers don't need to wait to tell what a insurrection is. That's how I taught it.
Where is the border report at? It's becoming very late!
One More NAZI Tactic Adopted by my Former Party.
Why after 45 years I now Vote Blue , Donate Blue and Volunteer Blue.
Help Save America; Stop the GQP or lose your freedom to even Think!
Bull crap it was an insurrection. Trump attacked the Capitol. That's what happened. What do we tell them about 911?
The Landis tweet was my greatest concern in all of your discussion. Irreparable!
I am reminded of the school board person who said that, when teaching about the Holocaust, both sides should be presented. Did she mean, it happened versus it didn't? Or, it was a good thing versus it was a bad thing?
Jan 6th will be taught the same way as slavery, American Indian loss of land, incurraction and the bible. The saving grace is video, jail and felony charges.
Wow… Nazis gonna Nazi, I guess.
Lol, this guy's response is totally on point. The investigation is on going, no wrong doing has been proven in court or Congress. Are you mad he's not conforming to your talking points? I guess cancel anyone who doesn't think like you, typical NPC talk.
Yeah we can't tell kids that hundreds of people tried to kill the VP and Congress at the order of the President in a class about STUDYING SOCIETY. We all know what happened and acting like it didn't is cowardice.
His story has always been the same lies lies and more lies……you have to be a scholarly individual to to learn any truth…..
Public schools are for children no one cares about.
It was a textbook coup attempt.
Love💕 to all my Democrat and Repiblican neighbors. Let us spread love💕 today not hate. Political beliefs may differ but we are all brother and sister in one way or another.💕
Yeah it’s wrong. It’s like teaching the students we need more evidence on exactly what the method of attack was on September 11 2001. It was jet planes flown by terrorists. January 6, 2021 was Trump’s delusional brainwashed MAGA mob attacking the Capitol to stop certification of the Presidential election. We watched both on TV.
I wonder what the school is teaching about the deadly peaceful riots? It should be the same as that!
Absolutely shameful and disgusting.
One of my HS “social studies” teachers taught us to read the NYT every day, see at as an unfolding story. One of the best things I was taught in high school.
Lets see ! There was an assault on the capital ! TRUTH
140 Police Officers were injured and 1 died-TRUTH
There was a “Stop the Steal Rally” led by Trump and GOP people and directed Ralliers to go to capital ! TRUTH
There were trump flags all over the building! TRUTH
Over 700 people to date have been arrested and they were all trump supporters ! TRUTH
SEVERAL GOP members like ex chief of staff PETER NAVARRO stated that a “Coup” was planned and over 100 GOP were involved-TRUTH
HISTORY MUST SHOW AND TELL THE TRUTH—TRUMP PEOPLE TRIED TO STOP THE COUNT—-LET HISTORY SHOW WHO EXACTLY WERE THE TRAITORS
Naiv from Europe with enough distance in km an a fascist history this looks like a multi directional coup attempt by a narcissistic sociopath. The only difference Hitler tried a coup attempt before he got head of state and he went to jail for it where he wrote his infamous book "Mein Kampf".
Smearconish is one of the turds that helped get trump elected, so everything he says now is just trying to cover his ass.
I don't think this is a controversy at all. I think it's wise for teachers and schools to discuss this topic and answer students questions with facts and honesty. You can't hide it that's for sure.
Until bunker boy is held accountable, they will continue feeding the big lie.
This is what authoritarian countries do. Hide the truth!! Just see china.
I guess schools will "teach" that Jan. 6th was as horrible as the genocide of Hitler? I'm not left or right, Republican or Democrat I'm an American. People need to look at other Countries and see what an insurrection really is and what a real one looks like.
DC cops didn't need the National guard, Military or UN to come and restore order and prevent a Coup d'etat. If more DC cops had been called in earlier that day. This would have never happened. If the security guys weren't holding the doors open for the crowd. This never would have happened. Portland, Chicago, and other major cities where allowed to be burned, looted and otherwise be destroy all summer long. Nothing was done about that either. Law and order across our Country has been allowed to go unanswered.
I think they’ll find government involvement encouraging the crowd
They must the president at the time organized there was no fraud in the election. Joe Biden won fair and square that is what needs to be taught!
"What should school children be taught about Jan. 6th?"
How would teaching about Jan. 6 th be any different from any other history lesson? It's irrelevant whether or not the facts about what happened annoy people of a certain political persuasion. If people want a completely impartial view of what happened then just "roll the tape" and let the children see what happened.
Schools should teach, not divide. Especially when teachers are one sided.
Man, when I was a kid, talking about current events was expected.
Teach them that republicans can not win on merit and must cheat and riot and stomp their feet when they lose. Also, teach them that trump is a twice impeached, one term loser.
Texas textbooks have long been written to sugarcoat history. Virginia too. You can look that up.
WHATEVER! REAL Teachers TEACH the TRUTH. There WAS an insurrection. Duh#%#^*
What about the guy on the top of the scaffolding with the bull horn what about the guy that was cutting the razor fence what about the guy that was pushing people into the capital they got grandma they got the guy with the bull horns????
I know what i'll be telling our children…it's called the truth
But they want to teach the history of “LGB” at Bible study.
I like him to tell us what costumes were they wearing? And who does he think would take the chance of going to jail or even seriously hurt if they weren’t true Dump maga protesters?
How did Texas get mentioned and nobody brought up the audit of counties that voted for Biden found no fraud!! Another embarrassing waste of time and taxpayers money to serve a weak man's fragile ego. Texans should be angry at governor Abbott for wasting their money.
