6. Could they make it any more biased
I realize that the 'promotes resentment' was a talking point of the RW wackos that supported this bill but by including this in the question without giving the explanation that the classes may or may not actually teach this (I say they don't but you never know what a particular teacher might do) is highly biased. I agree with the original poster that there isn't really an answer because of the way the question is written. If you vote NO it makes it sound like you agree with teaching racial resentment. This is the old right wing black and white version of the world. If you teach an ethnic group to have pride in their heritage then obviously you are denigrating the other ethnic groups especially Gods chosen people the white, christian, rightwing, conservative people that were the only ones that really built this country. What next are they going to ban Women's studies because it teaches resentment of men especially those of the Caucasian persuasion.
