It's surprising that the Bluegrass State's future isn't bleaker than it is, with all the hate that gets taught in our so-called schools.
Parents of students at Pulaski County High School are outraged because a teacher showed a short film to students called 'Fitna', which attacks Muslims and depicts beheadings. This presentation occurred on the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
'Fitna' was written by right-wing Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders. Wilders's intolerance is so intense that he is banned from entering Britain. Predictably, Wilders also supports deregulation of Big Business and expanding the War on Drugs. He's like a Dutch version of Phil Gramm, and is frequently invited to speak to American conservative groups.
Wilders once said, "I'm very afraid of being linked with the wrong rightist fascist groups." I guess he thinks there's a such thing as "the right rightist fascist groups", huh?
'Fitna' itself generated lawsuits for using copyrighted material without permission.
It's unclear whether the Kentucky teacher who showed 'Fitna' was even reprimanded.
This is what Kentucky schools are teaching, folks.
