Ignoring the impact of race and racism in history doesn't make it go away; it just makes you ignorant.

I believe today's high school students can handle the information and, hopefully, it will affect their leadership for the future.

Todays high school students are the weakest, most self centered, most brain washed students ever. Most can't maintain a thought for more than ten seconds.

If you had a history class, you know how terrible the US treated other races and ethnicities. The only difference is a lot of things were left out, like the Oklahoma massacre. Of course it affected our laws & institutions. This is not a new concept.

This continual focus on race is taking us back to a segregated, dark, racist place. It needs to stop.

It's part of the Democratic plan to maintain hate and racism, thereby keeping the slaves on the welfare plantation. They don't mind putting white people on the plantation either, as long as they have a plantation, where hate and discontent can be maintained.

We are teaching children they are oppressed or oppressors based solely on skin color. That is the definition of racism. This country is going backwards with CRT and promoting hate and racism against white people mind blowing madness!

Because it is a racist and goes against the fundamentals of equality.

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Most people already drive 75 MPH, at least. Trust the people.

A lot of people drive faster than the posted speed limit - 75 to 80 instead of 70. Increasing the speed limit will just push the actual travel rates higher - 80 to 85 instead of 75. With all of the heavy trucks on the road (some that drive slow), higher speeds are just dangerous.

Drivers are already driving 5 to 10 miles over the current limits so if it's increased I'm pretty sure they'll exceed the new limits.
