Fun Facts

[Bond]

Probably your teacher who supplied the "fun fabrications."

This is a perfect example of a lot of the misinformation that is not only going around the media, but our damn school systems as well. How the hell are our kids going to grow up being free thinkers when teachers, and I'm not just talking about your teacher Typhoid, feel the need to taint lessons with politics slanted to their particular brand of propoganda.

I'm going to school to become a teacher, and one of the first things I id was promise myself to present every side of an argument, and let the student decide for themselves. If a student is positive that one idea is true, I will present him with the argument forthe counter to that idea. It's called creating Cognitive Disequilibrium and is a Contructivist way to let students decide for themselves what their views are, and not simply to shove your ideas down their impressionable throats.

read the first post i made ( i think) i mentioned he found it on the ground because a student from a law class left it behind, so he read it out, these wernt his opinions, the sheet was from some states website...( i think it was like, Alabama or something) and he was reading it out in front of the class.

just to clear it up, and i agree, it does sound like a high number, but if you look at the population of America it sounds reasonable.

And it wasnt talking about vehicle-vehicle collisions, it included pedestrians hit by hit& runs, and things like that.
