Inoculating our children against militarism. Strikes fear in your heart, doesn’t it, Michelle?
If shes so concerned about teachers indoctrinating their childrens!! Where is Michelle’s outrage about this?

Surely considering the age bracket of these kids this rates as more abhorrent and worrying than an elective peace studies class that has been a part of the curriculum for almost 20 years and encourages debate and discourse and some critical thinking?
