Heck, kids aren t even willing to read much anymore, and if they do, they are pointed toward the kind of literature that typically does not enrich their lives. However, the recent Harry Potter craze got kids to sit down and read 700 page books about magic, triumph, and human redemption. Before long, the denizens of the feminist movement assaulted the Harry Potter mania because of its supposed emphasis on the male characters as heroes, and the females as supporting cast. Another example of the socialist agenda at work. After all, anything that these leftists cry out against has got to be meritorious.
Bookworms are no longer chic.
Education and knowledge, for many of these kids, is not even of the slightest importance to them. For it is the next navel or eyebrow piercing for which they have given high priority status. And yet, when these warped young minds go off and kill, the leftists purport that guns are to blame, and guns are too available, and guns are the evil of the universe. The message should be that our kids are lacking established cultural values that public schools have slowly worked to destroy. They lack a value system inherited from the family, church, and friends.
