MN government school cancels vet visit

This is yet another reason why I slam government schools: more often than not, they’re political tools for the left.  From Minnesota:

A national tour featuring decorated veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan won’t be stopping at Forest Lake Area High School today as planned, after school leaders abruptly canceled the visit.

Steve Massey, the school principal, said the decision to cancel was prompted by concerns that the event was becoming political rather than educational and therefore was not suitable for a public school.
…
“I think it’s extremely unfortunate that a school would bow to the political pressure of outside groups and not bring in a veterans organization,” Hegseth said. “Are we saying that patriotism and duty and honor have no place in our public schools?” So far, the tour has visited one school, albeit a private school. …

Nice job, MN!  Now go ahead and complete the circle of moonbattery by electing Stuart Smalley to be your Senator this November.

By the way, if you have not yet done so, feel free to go ahead and question the left’s patriotism.
