Boulder High School
October 01, 2007
The city of Boulder, Colorado is quickly turning into
San Francisco with a mountain range. Last week, there
was the news story about Boulder High School and how
there was a student protest because the pledge of
allegiance was allowed to be said on campus during
school hours. Now, it’s very important that you
listen carefully to what I just said.
The pledge of allegiance was ALLOWED to be said on campus. There’s no mandatory pledge of allegiance. Students are required to recite it. That’s state law. But there’s a protest about it, calling it “religious oppression” because it has the words “under God” in it. Okay, let me see if I’ve got this right. You’re not required to say the pledge of allegiance if you don’t want to. Yet, somehow, according to a loudmouthed ditz in the senior class, that’s religious oppression.
Oh, she’s not the only one who’s protesting on those grounds. There’s another student who doesn’t like it. So, now we have a grand total of two. Well, normally this story wouldn’t be in the news but here’s what makes it newsworthy. The principal of Boulder High School, a moron named Bud Jenkins, is applauding the two airheads for protesting the pledge of allegiance. He’s praising them for standing up for their beliefs.
I wonder how he’d react if two students wanted the pledge to be mandatory and tried to organize a demonstration for their cause. I don’t think the answer to that is much in doubt. You see, Principal Jenkins, who applauded these anti-pledge dynamic duo, is the same Principal Jenkins who defended Boulder High’s inviting a pervert psychologist from UCLA to speak on campus last spring and told the students to do drugs and have sex.
Why the principal wasn’t unceremoniously fired for that is one of the great mysteries of our day and age but he defended the UCLA witch doctor’s advice in spite of parental outrage once the story became public. Okay, let’s look at Principal Jenkins’s track record so far. He defends a pervert professor who tells the kids to have sex and do drugs. He applauds two obvious atheists who called a voluntary reading of the pledge of allegiance religious oppression.
So you have to wonder what’s next. Well, in Boulder, that could be anything. But one thing is certain. If it’s anti-American, pro-drug, or sexually degenerate, you can take it to the bank that Principal Jenkins will be all for it. Why does Captain Pervo still have a job?
