They’re pulling the wool over our eyes

By Michael Anthony Joseph - Nashua | Apr 3, 2021

Our devious New Hampshire legislative leadership has written a very disturbing, hidden a gag order on free speech for us. It comes in the form of an amendment to the State budget, from House Bill 544. The hidden amendment number is 2021-0 925h. This amendment would ban state agencies, K-12 schools as well as colleges and universities from teaching about systemic racism and sexism (including the Holocaust). They are attempting to stand in conflict with federal law and protections for our citizens by adding it, with the title: “Propagation of Divisive Concepts Prohibited.”

Their problem in attempting to hide this hateful legislation is that, since the horse is already out of the barn, this shaded gag order falls on deaf ears among individuals who aspire to an Esprit de Corps among all people, or for those for whom societal general rules of confidentiality are paramount.

In reading the bill, they deceptively word it to appear to be “all race, religion, sexual orientation or skin color affirming”, however, in the end they actually nip any discussion of the same in the bud. These legislative leaders are ignoring the American Constitutional concept of free speech and standing against their own citizenry who teach or counsel and who have spent their entire careers sensitizing our youth to care about their peers as individuals.

In any event, they must reconsider and reject the idea of making New Hampshire, where people care for their neighbors, to become known as the hateful State.
