    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    A private full-time day school or boarding school (EC 48222) where instruction is provided by "persons capable of teaching," Independent study is not an exemption from public school attendance. It is clear that the person capable of teaching (which you referenced) needs to be part of the...

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    I don't know why some teachers send their kids to private schools. Probably for the same reasons many others do. Might be religious. Might be that the students don't want to go where their parents work. Might be for sports or academic reasons. The study you reference only deals with large...

    Obama pro/con

    No, I appropriately pointed out the burden of proof was not met to support the conclusions. That is a fair demonstration that the article is not journalism. That it appears on the Editorials and Opinions page is another good indicator.

    Obama pro/con

    I already showed that the comments don't match the presented evidence and wondered if there was any real evidence to support the claims being made. That is about all that can be done to demonstrate that a claim is a biased unsupported assertion based on hearsay and fueled by wishful thinking...

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    This school did not provide instruction to the child and the child was not attending the school so it does not match one of the 4 valid options. The judges ruling was correct based on the law and there is no judicial activism here.

    Obama pro/con

    What about "Does Investors Daily have any evidence this is true?" So some guy talks to two Americans and suddenly they are Obama staffers or supporters? Where is the evidence that the conversation actually took place and is not simply a fabrication of one guy telling another what he wants to...

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    No, you really didn't. The students were not attending the private school nor receiving instruction from the school so the things you cherrypicked really didn't apply. They were not receiving instruction from somebody who was licensed by the state or from an organiation approved by the state...

    Obama lobbies 'gays'

    The planet where it is obvious to almost everybody that needle sharing is not equivalent to needle exchange. They are pretty much opposites of each other.

    Well, gays get to vote too no matter what your preacher says.

    Obama pro/con

    King sounds like the man who isn't fit for office. This is no different that the anti-Catholic sentiment used in the past to smear candidates about their 'allegiance' to the pope. The GOP is demonstrating that same level of desperation. How exactly does this represent a national security...

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    Well, states rights. What can you do. Judges enforcing a law others find stupid? It's not like this is the first time for that. It's up the the legislature to remove the stupid law, not for the judge to not enforce it. That would be against the constitution and an act of judicial activism...

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    I'm not sure kids are getting dumber and dumber. I never said I wasn't concerned about violence in schools. I am simply pointing out that they are exceptions, not the rule. Is there a lot of violence in the schools in your area? What schools are those? Are there reports in your local paper...

    So this is an example of the unsafe, ineffective, and morally void public schools in your area?

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    No. Not really. Can you provide the name of a unsafe, ineffective, and morally void public school in your area? What is their website? I can't think of one in mine. I deal with kids that go to several different local schools and they are bright, adjusted students who have bright futures...

    California Court Rules Against Homeschoolers

    There was no judicial activism here. You're anger should be with the congressmen of the 50's. For somebody who keeps talking about states rights you sure don't seem to be supported when states do something you disagree with. Where does the constitution say anything about a right to...
