I hear you and I agree. I see home school in my peanut's future. But this:
'it is an adjunct of some of the philosophies that maybe you are in favor of'
- do you mean that I'm in favor of capital punishment?
One thing I've been looking forward to asking you is that - you're so in favor of independence and our right to be sovereign to ourselves but you were in the military and you're seemingly 'pro' military. I understand that armies are made up of ernest, sincere and compassionate individuals - but I don't know that the people that direct them are.
