I don't think that word "indoctrination" means what you think it means
And Im sure I don't have to explain to you the difference between this and civil disobedience.
I like this new side of you where you actually reveal the type of person you really are rather than the politically correct version you pretend to be. The real you looks at a typical southern white guy and thinks " trailer trash hillbilly "
Indoctrination is the process of inculcating ideas, attitudes, cognitive strategies or a professional methodology (see doctrine).[1] It is often distinguished from education by the fact that the indoctrinated person is expected not to question or critically examine the doctrine they have learned

Where are the young kids being educated to think critically concerning the shirt in question? I didn't see anything to suggest that they are being taught why they shouldn't wear it, only that it was not allowed. If they aren't, then the term indoctrination could be used, could it not?

I agree that it is the parent's place. It's sad that the school even has to address it.
That point we agree on.
If the school isn't teaching about it though, in regards to this case, then technically, it does fall under indoctrination. I'm not making an argument that indoctrination is good or bad, just that technically this could fall under that term in this case, and cases that are similar where teaching is not implemented along with the practice.

The rules are in place, its my job as a parent to see that he follows them. I wouldn't want my son wearing my political ideologies on his back either. If he wants the shirt, fine, but he doesn't wear it to school. Dress like someone who's in school to learn.
If you want to use the word indoctrination, the parents indoctrinated him to think its ok to wear a sleeveless tshirt with guns and a political ideology on the front of it to school.

The media is to blame for false perception over reality. There's nothing unusual about someone walking down a remote road with a rifle. If he was wearing camo with a 12gauge on his back, nobody would have noticed. The type of rifle is what intimidates people. The perception of said rifle is far from the reality of it.
That guy getting stopped because of his appearance is about the same as a black guy getting stopped for wearing a backwards hat. Neither are in violation of any law, but the perception is misleading.

I think when you register your car you should have to list the path your vehicle travels routinely and whenever you go beyond that path you should have to get a permit. They should also use the progressive snapshot to monitor the driving behavior of all drivers and maybe one day be able to remotely limit a car's ability or shut it off if the driver does something that warrants suspicion or wonders off his path. it would save lives and assist the police in tracking fugitives.

imagine if South Africa adopted some of Obama's gun control policies.... it could have prevented something like this from ever happening.
"In South Africa, owning a gun is conditional on a competency test and several other factors, including background checking of the applicant, inspection of an owner's premises, and licensing of the weapon by the police introduced in July 2004. The process is currently undergoing review,[1] as the police are at present, not able to adequately or within reasonable time, process either competency certification, new licenses or renewal of existing licenses. Minimum waiting period frequently exceeds 2 years from date of application"

I kinda agree with where he's coming from, but i would chose to be more tactful in how i said it. I am tired of these victims being paraded around on the gun control campaign too..... but i also realize that these are grieving families that are being manipulated by politicians. I would carefully express to those victims that the actions of criminals should not have an effect on my rights as a law abiding citizen. Given the chance to speak to Obama, Piers Morgan or any of the other gun control pushers........ i would tell them to suck a dick. Unfortunately..... most of those liberal democrats, Obama especially.... would probably just think to themselves "been there, done that"

Anything regarding his possible Presidency is pure speculation, but I would venture that he probably would not have supported Feinstein's bill to the same degree as Obama has.

So if either administration would have supported some iteration of an assault weapons ban, it is foolish to pretend that only Obama is some kind of evil gun grabbing dictator and that there isn't something more to a gun ban that you might be turning a blinder to because you have some kind of idealogical grudge.

I am not saying that Romney would have supported additional gun regulations.
His political position does not currently support Feinstein's proposal.
"I believe we need to focus on enforcing our current laws rather than creating new laws that burden lawful gun owners. I believe in safe and responsible gun ownership and that anyone who exercises the right to keep and bear arms must do so lawfully and properly. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all federal approach to gun ownership because people keep and use firearms for different reasons. Law-abiding citizens have a right to protect their homes and their families and as President, I will vigorously defend that right." - Romney, Jan 7, 2008, The Washington Post
"Yeah, I'm not in favor of new pieces of legislation on guns and taking guns away or making certain guns illegal. We of course don't want to have automatic weapons, and that's already illegal in this country, to have automatic weapons. What I believe is we have to do is to make enormous efforts to enforce the gun laws that we have and to change the culture of violence we have. And you ask, how are we going to do that? Good schools, to give people the hope and opportunity they deserve, and perhaps less violence from that. But let me mention another thing. And that is parents. We need moms and dads helping raise kids." - Romney, Second Obama-Romney 2012 debate , Oct 16, 2012

Romney was in support of the 1994 ban back in 2004, but note that when he sign Mass. ban in 2004, that was with the support of his states pro-gun lobby, as they got other concessions that they wanted.
Since 2008, Romney has stated clearly that he does not support a federal ban on assault weapons.
His statement in Jan 2008:
"I do not support any new legislation of an assault weapon ban nature, including that against semiautomatic weapons. I instead believe that we have laws in place that if they're implemented and enforced, will provide the protection and the safety of the American people. But I do not support any new legislation, and I do support the right of individuals to bear arms, whether for hunting purposes or for protection purposes or any other reason. That's the right that people have."
During the 2008 primary campaign, the Washington Post asked Romney, "Do you think tighter restrictions should be in place for those buying a firearm?"
Romney answered, "No. I believe we need to focus on enforcing our current laws rather than creating new laws that burden lawful gun owners. ... I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all federal approach to gun ownership because people keep and use firearms for different reasons. ..."
The only straw man argument is YOUR hypothetical situations, which are detached from reality, but then again, so are you, so we should expect that. Your hypothetical situation is what does not exist. My reality is that Romney did not support the 2013 Feinstein bill, and stated clearly that he was not in support of it.
You need to learn to have the facts on your side before you try to call someone out and utterly and completely fail.

Facepalm
Romney once supported a assault weapons ban similar to that of Feinsteins with bipartisan support. You've agreed to it, and he hasn't changed his position on the issue since then. End of discussion. There is no other reality than that. To think that he is any different than Obama on guns is completely and utterly false.

Can you not read????? I'll bold it for you.

If you still believe that he would have supported Feinstein's 2013 bill, you are delusional, or in denial. It seems that you believe that you know Romney better than he knows himself.
Finally, look at his own website, and his public statement there:
“...will enforce the laws already on the books and punish, to the fullest extent of the law, criminals who misuse firearms to commit crimes. But he does not support adding more laws and regulations that do nothing more than burden law-abiding citizens while being ignored by criminals. Mitt will also provide law enforcement with the proper and effective resources they need to deter, apprehend, and punish criminals.”

Your mistake is not understanding that 2004 came before 2008 (the calendar works like that), and in 2008, he made the above statements. His website had the information listed above in 2012, which also comes well after 2004 (I only mention it because it is obvious that basic math is a serious challenge to you.).
You wanted to create the hypothetical situation of replacing Obama with Romney in 2012, not 2004. His answer in 2012 is clear. It is not the same as Obama's stated position. You have failed to tie them to the same position on Feinstein's 2013 bill, which was the whole basis for your original statement (I figure that I need to remind you, as your memory has been lacking today.).

The fact that he doesn't want MORE laws doesn't change the fact that he felt the ones he put in place in 2004 were appropriate measures, especially since he said so himself. Period.

Again, you show that you have zero reading comprehension skills. Read this quote again, and pay attention to the word "federal". Mass. is not a federal entity, its a state.
Romney answered, "No. I believe we need to focus on enforcing our current laws rather than creating new laws that burden lawful gun owners. ... I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all federal approach to gun ownership because people keep and use firearms for different reasons. ..."
Your statements amounts to saying that Romney cannot change his opinion OR that he was lying in 2008-2012, and he secretly was planning to support Feinstein's 2013 bill. Which is it? He clearly stated that he was not for federal gun restrictions in 2008 and in his recent political campaign.
Oh, and you have no idea what my viewpoint is. I actually know that Romney and Obama have similar viewpoints on many issues - they made it clear in their political statements. While this one bill was not one of them, there were plenty of others.

He never made any such statement in regards to federal restriction. State regulations are not the same as federal regulations. Why can't you understand that? Feinstein's 2013 AWB bill was not a state regulatory bill.
And I can prove that his stated position changed - he supported the 1994 bill, and specifically addressed it.
In 2008, his position changed, and he specifically stated no new federal regulations.
Why did he change his position? Everyone knows that it was because he was to run for the Republican Presidential nomination.

His position might have changed, but what he said, and what you quoted, doesn't suggest his position on gun control changed. It simply suggests he didnt want new regulations.

Blank, I think what you fail to acknowledge is that Romney's personal beliefs both in 2004 and now are irrelevant. He was/is probably far more interested in political consequences. In 2004, it was in his political interest to sign that legislation and in 2013 (assuming he were president), it would probably be in his political interest not to support any new gun laws. His personal views on what is right (which we can only guess) are most likely irrelevant to how he would behave in office.

I fully acknowledge that. The question was hypothetical.
The fact remains though that at one point, he thought common sense gun laws were just. Why judge one by what he thinks is right and not the other?

Do you believe that a person's position is not capable of change?
The fact is that Romney has stated for years that no new federal gun laws are needed. It's also fact that his political position changed on an assault weapons ban when he started to run for the Republican nomination.

As mentally strong as he thinks he is, his entire belief system is based upon the fear of not having a safety net. He shares the mentality of the weak.... and that is why gun control is so important to the liberal masses.... because one thing you can note about the bleeding hearts, they're all absolutely terrified of their own blood.

If you think politics is so black and white to say one side is right and the other is wrong, you arent old enough or experienced enough to even make that decision.
Now I will explain why I say this. When you look at any number of issues in a series, you will find that the ideological reasonings dont stand up.
Dems, vehemently against the death penalty, but in favor of abortion. I could easily say dems promote infanticide but do not want to punish criminals. Just because it isnt true doesnt mean it is easy to defend against
GOP, crusading against big, intrusive govt, but want govt to dictate who you get to marry. GOP is an easy target to be called homophobes. Is it true? Not in the VAST majority of cases, but it doesnt matter cause it makes a good sound bite.

Dems, vehemently against the death penalty, but in favor of abortion. I could easily say dems promote infanticide but do not want to punish criminals. Just because it isnt true doesnt mean it is easy to defend against
GOP, crusading against big, intrusive govt, but want govt to dictate who you get to marry. GOP is an easy target to be called homophobes. Is it true? Not in the VAST majority of cases, but it doesnt matter cause it makes a good sound bite.

Read what I said again. You obvioulsy missed the entire point of what I was saying.
On a side note:
Women's choice is another word for abortion. We arent talking about anything else when we talk women's choice. Being in favor of a woman's right to choose IS being in favor of abortion.

Are you trolling? Or are you actually interested in rational discussion?
You need to use some critical thinking here. It seems that you have a lot of difficulty when it comes to using your brain.
Most abortions are simply die to the baby not being wanted by the mother in "woman's choice" situations - we aren't talking about medical emergencies here, we are talking about woman's choice.
So, is killing via abortion different than killing via a firearm? Is one killing, and the other isn't?
Since you have clearly stated how you are for letting a woman use her own personal moral compass to determine if she wants to kill a baby via abortion, why are you against letting a man/woman use their own moral compass to determine if he/she wants to kill someone with an assault rifle?
The discussion is not about abortion per say, but rather, should someones's own personal morality determine whether other's should live or die; and, can you argue that in one case it's fine, but in other cases, it is not allowable.

I'm not arguing whether someone should live or die in one case and not another, because that's not what abortion is at all.
Lets see if you can make your case without using the words "killing", "murder", "baby", and "firearm", as these are all emotionally charged words, or emotional embellishments, and have nothing to do with an abortion procedure. I would hope that you'd agree that you can't kill a baby if its A) Not alive, and B) not a baby. So are you able to judge the subject dispassionately?

Lets see if you can make your case without using the words "killing", "murder", "baby", and "firearm", as these are all emotionally charged words, or emotional embellishments, and have nothing to do with an abortion procedure. I would hope that you'd agree that you can't kill a baby if its A) Not alive, and B) not a baby. So are you able to judge the subject dispassionately?
The hypocrisy is staggering.

What you're trying to do is to strengthen your argument by arguing that the procedure is wrong because its immoral. I'm not gonna sit here and advocate for killing living things, but I don't pretend that its the only thing an abortion is, and then judge the situation based on that.
Abortion is simply an extraction of a fetus or an embryo, surgically or medically, whether its dead or alive, viable or non-viable. There's no alternate definition for it. Period.

A partial birth abortion is a political term used to describe the procedure to remove a fetus from the womb in late pregnancy. The term medical professionals use is "intact dilation and extraction"

And at what point is a fetus alive? When a medical professional does an intact dilation and extraction, is the fetus dead? does it die during the procedure? if so? why does it die? is it natural or is the death a direct cause of the medical professional's action?

And at what point is a fetus alive? What point is a fetus alive? Good question. There's not really a clear medical answer, but the consensus is when the fetus is able to survive outside of the womb
When a medical professional does an intact dilation and extraction, is the fetus dead? does it die during the procedure? if so? why does it die? is it natural or is the death a direct cause of the medical professional's action?If the fetus is already dead before the procedure is performed, and the procedure becomes illegal, how do you suppose you remove it?

False. Very false.
Abortion-Reasons Women Choose Abortion (http://www.m.webmd.com/women/tc/abortion-reasons-women-choose-abortion)
Women's choice isn't a situation. It simply means the choice of woman, and in this discussion, the choice is between having an abortion or not having an abortion. There is no alternate definition for this. Period.
Definition of choice in Oxford Dictionaries (US English) (US) (http://oxforddictionaries.com/us/definition/american_english/choice?q=Choice)

I would hope that you'd agree that you can't kill a baby if its A) Not alive, and B) not a baby. So are you able to judge the subject dispassionately?
Ok, so all that you just established is that you are not capable of reading comprehension and critical thinking. I shouldn't have expected that much from you.
Let me ask you two simple questions that you probably still can't understand.
Should a woman be allowed to choose to kill her baby just because she decides that she does not want it? (not natural, not "health of mother", not already dead fetus)
Should it make a difference if the baby is killed at 24 weeks, or 24 minutes after delivery?
Oh, and as for reasons of a late termination:
71% Woman didn't recognize she was pregnant or misjudged gestation
48% Woman found it hard to make arrangements for abortion
33% Woman was afraid to tell her partner or parents
24% Woman took time to decide to have an abortion
8% Woman waited for her relationship to change
8% Someone pressured woman not to have abortion
6% Something changed after woman became pregnant
6% Woman didn't know timing is important
5% Woman didn't know she could get an abortion
2% A fetal problem was diagnosed late in pregnancy
11% Other

So why have you spent all morning dancing around the fact that most abortions are simply the choice to not want a baby????????????
You believe that if a woman doesnt want to have a baby, she can go to the doctor and have the doctor terminate the baby.
Own what you believe in and quit trying to put a political spin on it.
The real question is, at what point does a fetus become a living child. So far your definition is "when able to survive outside the womb"....
So can i get an abortion in 8 1/2 months as long as the "fetus" is still inside? if not, why not?

Source? Because this seems to conflict with the webMD source I provided
Reasons given for having abortions in the United States (http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/policy/abortion/abreasons.html)
The third table down. It is 2004 data. Only 7% of abortions for medical reasons.
This one puts the numbers at at least 13%.
Why Women Choose Abortion - Statistical Breakdown of Reasons For Abortion (http://womensissues.about.com/od/reproductiverights/a/AbortionReasons_2.htm)
Lets face facts. Abortion is a lifestyle choice in the VAST majority of cases.
Abortion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion)
Wiki also disagrees with your definition of abortion. The unintentional loss of a fetus is called a miscarriage. An abortion is the intentional loss of a fetus.

"An abortion can occur spontaneously, in which case it is usually called a miscarriage, or it can be purposely induced."
So since abortions are also spontaneous miscarriages, using the medical definition of abortion--and I'm just stabbing in the dark here--MOST abortions are kinda medical complications.

Why don't you just cut the bullshit already and address the issue and what you believe instead of side-stepping with political correctness and medical definitions? How many people do you know that identify their ailments and symptoms with proper medical terminology? Probably less than 1% of people you know, or the entire population for that matter. For all intents and purposes the term "abortion" as far as the vast majority of the adult population is concerned refers to the intentional termination of a pregnancy by the mother, and the unintentional loss of a pregnancy is considered a miscarriage. Quit playing with semantics and step into the realm of reality and address the issue at a level that most voters will understand and get off your intellectual high horse with this "well strictly according to the medical definition" crap. After all, the majority of the electorate you are dealing with cares more about Angelina Jolie's double mastectomy and how fat Kim Kardashian looks this week than the fact that Benghazi is a clusterfuck, the fed govt has flexed it's political muscle through the IRS and the EPA while seizing press phone records to "investigate a leak".
