OMG, it is! You just can't make up this kind of crap:

Teachers at Malcolm X Elementary in Southeast are using the unfolding case and the story surrounding Martin as part of their "Let's Keep Our Children Safe" seminar.

It ain't the whole city that elects Barry, just one ward that elects him to represent that ward in the city council. I think pretty much everyone outside of that ward would rather see him gone.

This website covers DC homicides which the schools claim to want to protect their kids from.

Homicide Watch D.C. | Mark every death. Remember every victim. Follow every case.

Click on the suspects tab. Sort by Race....there are close to 200 suspects listed....2 are white.

But hey, let's not talk about that. We need to use Trayvon so we can warn our kids in DC that racist whites are just out there gunning us down left and right.

Why not choose one of the young men that got involved in drugs and gangs and have a day named after him?

After the outburst by the black NC teacher over criticism of Barack Obama, I can only imagine what kind of Black Kumbayah is taking place in that DC elementary school. I wouldn't be surprised if it's replete with White Devil Theory and rounded out with White Hispanic Racists Lurk Behind Every Tree philosophy.

I truly feel sorry for black children in America. It's a crying shame the regression they're experiencing at the behest of their "progressive" elders.

Not a bad idea if they teach the kids that punching a stranger in the face can get you killed. That would probably be the most valuable lesson they learned all year.

I certainly agree that this seems unwise. Seems like those school officials have made up their mind before all the facts are in, trial, etc.

I bet some of those students think it a stupid ideal also.

If you ever get to know black people you would see that some of the conclusions you jump to are way off. I’ve never even heard of White Devil Theory.

Perhaps we should have a George Zimmerman day where everyone sits around taking adderall, makes fun of minorities, abuses their significant others, applies for jobs on the police force while beating on punching bags of police men, shoots at targets of young black males in hoodies and wins prizes for hitting the head or the heart after they stalk the moving target but say it is his fault for looking suspicious and buying a some candy and a beverage. After that, everyone can move on to demonizing the victim by finding pictures and videos of black males with gold teeth, sticking up their middle finger and fighting - they can then claim it is the boy in the hoodie on the target (whether or not it is) because after all, anyone who shoots a"young black thug" deserves a medal of honor, even if they are dillusional person with other mental issues and a history of aggressive behavior - they should get away with murder. As long as they are murdering a black male because black males are the route of all evil. [/Sarcasm]

A lot of people have made up their minds on both sides. You can jump on any of the TM threads on CD and see this…
