Re: Umm, no

Is someone preventing them from homeschooling?

Who the fuck knows?

However, no, education is not a right. Freedom of conscience is a right, and education is a means to that right. In some respects the difference is small and in others it is big. That said, Israeli education is quite good.

Yes, education is a right because we say it is.

If you move to a community with certain rules, you cannot later on piss on their rules.

Why is a community exempt from rights enforcement while a state or country is not? Fine, the USA is a community (a huge one to be sure)--if it tramples on your rights, to bad, so sad, gtfo.

You are acting like the typical Anglo-Saxon who signs petitions because they are upset there are streets in town where all the signs are in Spanish or Chinese.

No, I'm acting like a guy who thinks little girls have a right to go to school in their community without being harassed. And don't play the race card on me. That's a dick move. You know my objection has nothing to do with race.

It's their community, they have the right to their rules.

Yeah, well this is my country, it has a right to make shit rules if it wants and anyone who lives here should just accept it because it's our heritage, right?

And with a community that has been historically prosecuted everywhere, and in the state created with the single purpose to defend and safe haven them, pissing on them is all the more bitter.

Pissing on them? How about just making them get with the times. It's the 21st century. If they don't want a conflict with the government, they should stop being assholes.
