Anti-Gay Preacher? Racist Cop? Middle-School Kids Told to Pick Who Lives, Who Dies, in Controversial School AssignmentThe teacher is reportedly "remorseful" after parents became, understandably, outraged and made their voices heard.
Seventh graders at Roberts Middle School in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio were assigned the task of deciding who got to live and who was doomed to be blown to smithereens. The "Whom to Leave Behind" lesson has caused quite a lot of outrage among moms and dads who believe the assignment sends the wrong message to their children.

Mr. Miller said parents should have been consulted before such a lesson was presented to students. He said some of the language used "could lend to a lot of confusion and in my opinion just kind of implant certain stereotypes and judgments within these young kids' minds that they shouldn't be having at this young age," the city councilman said. The school district says they are investigating the incident and the teacher is reportedly remorseful. This is what identity politics looks like—when you determine a person's value based on their sexuality or their skin color or the bank account. We used to sing a song in Sunday school—"Jesus Loves the Little Children of the World." As they lyrics tell us, "red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight.
