In flyover country Montana of all places . This should give the reader a good idea of how widespread is the PC/progressive rot that has permeated our school systems and dropped us from second to none to 25th or worse in a few short decades .
Front Page reports :
”After three weeks of preparation, research and numerous rewrites, Gerald Molen –a motivational speaker, former U.S. Marine, and Oscar-winning film producer – drove ninety minutes from his home to Ronan High School in Montana last month to deliver a graduation speech. He was shocked upon his arrival to find that Principal Tom Stack had decided to disinvite him and cancel the speech. He was further stunned to learn the reason that he wouldn’t be allowed to address the students – it was because he is “a right-wing conservative.” “
The man accepts no speaking fees and if offered , requests that they be donated to the Shoah Foundation . Clearly the man represents a serious threat to our youth .
”When speaking to students, Molen usually invokes the name of Oskar Schindler, the German industrialist credited with saving 1,100 Jews during the Holocaust and the subject of the Oscar-winning 1993 film that Molen and Spielberg co-produced. He points to Schindler as an example of what courageous individuals can accomplish, and Molen had planned to do so again in his presentation at Ronan High School.”
Leftwing bigotry on display even in the styx of middle America .
”We’ll never know because, even though his message to the students wasn’t overtly political, Gerald Molen is a conservative, and that alone is enough to incite censorship from the intolerant left. Apparently Principal Stack had received calls from some concerned parents who “didn’t want the kids exposed to that, despite not knowing what my message would be,” said Molen.”
Unfortunately with the widespread PC mindset of our present school administrators we can not even count on the “fact” that there were “some” calls demanding Molen not be allowed to appear . Given confidentiality , for all we know the school unilaterally canceled the speech . And for this kind of education we are constantly told that we are skinflints and need to “invest” ever more ” for the children” .
A Powerful Team It Is ….
