Teacher’s gun control assignment backfires
A Georgia middle school teacher is in hot water after instructing students to write letters in favor of stricter gun control measures.
In a clear effort to indoctrinate public school students, a teacher at Hampton Middle School instructed students to write letters to “pressure” lawmakers into passing stricter gun control laws.
“For this assignment, you are writing a letter to the lawmakers of the United States. The purpose of this letter is to pressure lawmakers to have stricter gun laws in the United States. Your letter should contain at least five complete sentences. Make sure that you use proper grammatical skills when writing your letter,” read the assignment given out by social studies teacher Corey Sanders to his students at Hampton Middle School.
Police officer William Lee told Blue Lives Matter that his son brought the assignment home from school and showed it to him.
“I asked him what he had for homework that night, and he said he had to write a paper on gun control,” said Lee
“I said uh oh – let me see the assignment,” he added.
Lee said he then instructed his son not to do the assignment.
“I looked at it, and I told my son, ‘no, you’re not doing that assignment,’” Lee said. “Then I emailed his teacher the next day and told him that my son would not be writing that.”
The teacher didn’t punish the student for sitting the assignment out– but Lee said he still has big questions.
“The first thing I wondered was what was their intent with these letters,” Lee said. “Were they planning to mail them?”
“And then I’d like to know how this fits into my son’s actual curriculum. The Georgia Standard of Excellence – which is what the Henry County curriculum is based on – says that my 7th grader is supposed to be studying Asia, Africa and Middle East in social studies,” Lee said. “There’s nothing in the course curriculum about gun control.”
“Where are these letters now?” Lee asked.
“Why are they giving this as an assignment? It has nothing to do with the curriculum that they’re supposed to be following,” the angry father said.
In an interview with Fox, a school representative said the teacher had been reprimanded and the letters were not sent to lawmakers.
“This activity took the wrong approach in limiting the ability of students to share any thoughts outside of what was directed of them when the subject elicits many different viewpoints from people, including students,” the spokesman said.
“It is unfortunate that this isolated incident occurred, but we are appreciative of those individuals who brought it to our attention so we could take corrective action and stop it from continuing further,” the school added.
Unfortunately, it probably will at schools all over the country.
