Default Re: Parents: Teacher silenced son on hunting

Vlad, I must respectfully disagree with your position. Because we conservatives have always backed down to "keep the peace", we find ourselves being taken advantage of and sneered at more and more. We have boot marks and tire tracks all over our backs because we have not stood up for what we believe is right.

These parents are not teaching their son to be a crybaby when things don't go your way. They are teaching him that if you feel strongly enough about a position, you should stand up for it, no matter what the consequences.
