At a Tucson Unified School District school board meeting on Tuesday — which was a make-up for one canceled after students chained themselves to board-room desks on April 26 — riot police were called in to restore order after program supporters become restless during the public input section of the meeting.

So what exactly has the protesters upset? The answer may surprise you. As we’ve previously reported, the district isn’t trying to ban the program outright. Instead, it wants to make a controversial history class — that calls for “death to the invaders” and was found to advocate overthrowing the U.S. government — an elective instead of allowing it to substitute for required history credits. That’s it. And the disturbing class would still be available to students.

But that’s not the rhetoric coming from the supporters. They’re trumpeting the message that the district is trying to eliminate the program altogether, a tactic used to stir up anger and action.

Outrage over the program isn’t split down liberal vs. conservative lines. As local citizen journalist Mike Shaw recently found out, some of the biggest advocates of removing the program and class are liberals and Democrats. He also found those who believe the student protest movement is being organized by a state university professor:

According to Shaw, the students are getting support from more then just one academic. While reviewing footage from the April 26 chain-in, he noticed something interesting. According to him, Ward Churchill (the controversial, one-time University of Colorado professor who was fired for his views on 9/11) was spotted supporting the protests:

this is the crap they're teaching our kids! IN-DOC-TRIN-A-TION! the marxist and communist left (which has taken over the left) are splitting us along every line they can! by race, by "class," by beliefs. and they're grooming the next generation of foot soldier! it's happening right in front of us, and we're all asleep to it. every time, and in every case, the public is asleep.

I've been following this story and it's truly sickening.

And in today's news, from Massachusettes ...

A teacher refused to let an 11 year old display a picture he'd drawn of the U.S. Flag.

Why?

Because it might offend another student.

The father of the student is contacting the ACLU.

Any bets on whether or not they'll take the case?
