Anyone else see this crazy add for a protest?

We call him Gorbachev around here (or Gorbachov)

Besides, aren't we a bit quick to judge? ceasar010 only said he saw the ad, not that the teacher said "OK class, look at this ad. Every word of it is the truth, and anybody who doesn't protest on October 5th will be placed in detention". The teacher was probably just showing them so they could make their own decision about it. In fact, the teacher could have been mocking the ad. We don't know.

I think the ad is detrimental to the cause. It sounds irrational, although I agree with the views.

I think the protest is a great idea. I hope to streets are swamped with people who want to throw out the Bush Regime. They did it to Mussolini too late.

Bush and Mussolini, that’s a good comparison.

The ad is detrimental to the cause because those who made the ad are irrational.

What would be better is if they were teaching them the things they should be learning in school, reading, writing, math, geography, etc. what class was this? How to look like a fool on “jaywalking”?

In a history or politics class, this has justification for being presented if it is likely to be imporatant or at least interesting and related.

To clear something up.

The teacher is ultra left, But does not shove it down our throats or make an issue of it.

Do the teachers balance out? (ie. do you have an ultra right teacher at all) - in my school the teachers are all biased - however they seems to cancel each other out... and they would never make us learn the material from there political / ideological point of view (ie. i have a jewish RS teacher who supports Israel, but takes the responsibillity and provides a fair assesment of the Israel-Palestine conflict)
