Okay, I don't usually post pics so I hope this works. A FB friend (extreeeeemely conservative) posting this to his wall is just pissed and raving that schools are now teaching that the Boston Tea Party was a terrorist attack. Everyone that has commented on it so far is appalled, homeschooling, revolting, etc. Hysterics ensued. I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but when I read it, it just sounds like a critical thinking activity... taking something that happened a long time ago without telling them, surrounding it a different context, and waiting to see what they make of it.
For debate, if this is even real (as we all know of they crap that make its rounds on FB) are schools trying to brainwash our kids into thinking the Boston Tea Party was an act of terror? Was this an innocent, nonpolitical classroom activity? And for shits and giggles, do you think the Boston Tea Part was a terrorist attack?
