Yup...Americas future...I weep...you gave it to "them"...and they will destroy it.

To answer everyone's questions teachers gave out research assignments, position papers and term papers since before you all went to school. Students went to libraries, used the Readers Guide to Periodical literature and microfiche machines before cd data basses were used. It probably wasn't assigned very often, if at all in the lower level classes.

What questions? Weren't we discussing the ban on books that questioned climate change?

Did they do this where you went to grade school, Junior HS, High School? Mine not so much and this was 1970-1976 or so.

I wouldn't know what they did in school in the 70's. I graduated from HS in the 60's, served in Vietnam and then got married, so public school was NOT an issue at that time.

In the not too distant future most likely during the upcoming reign of " Her Highness " the Left will believe that they have technology that can read the private thoughts of the citizenry .

At this point it will be a Federal Hate Crime to harbor any type of anti-PC thought . The " readings " of the machine which they will employ will be accepted as the only necessary evidence to convict one of harboring such thoughts .
The prisons will soon become very full so the concept of a " Penal Colony " will be implemented . In this case it will be the State which is considered to be the least desirable to live in . All " good " citizens from the new Penal Colony State will be resettled .

Is this before or after The Village buildout?

Since the Majority of residents here in The Villages regardless of their actual political affiliation are holding onto old fashioned values and beliefs they will not pass the test of the " PC Machine ".

Consequently they will be resettled in the new Penal Colony which I am given to believe will be in the area which is currently known as North Dakota . :posting:

By old values do you mean "love thy neighbor" or are you adding a couple of unlesses in there about race, color and creed. What's old is new again.

They don't like the cold country...that's why they'll let us keep ND.

Why not? Haven't we proven by now that diversity hasn't worked? We've never been lower in world rankings than we are now, and we're going lower every year. Why? Because minorities are the majority from age 6 down. Their numbers have been steadily growing, while our world ranking has been slowly falling.

The end of everything as we know it is nigh...

Show me the rankings.

I am referring to ideas such as self-responsibility , working hard to support your family , saving for your retirement , taking care of your property , believing that the world does not owe you a thing ,
family , volunteering and not expecting Gvt to " do it ". ETC

You know silly old fashioned values . To believe in such concepts and not believe in the contrary is not consistent with " PC Thinking ".
