This book is a product of its time and does not reflect the same values as it would if it were written today. Parents might wish to discuss with their children how views on race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and interpersonal relations have changed since this book was written before allowing them to read this classic work.
I Don't know whether to laugh, cry, or get mad! Above you can see a parental warning cautioning parents that they might want to talk to their kids about the contents of the Constitution, The Declaration of Independence, and The Articles of Confederation before allowing them to read them.
This is from a book by A&D Publishing which is owned by Wilder Publishing. Evidently the founding documents of this country can be detrimental to young developing minds if they don't get told by their parents that we the people of the United States no longer share the values espoused in these three great documents! What a bunch of horse s##t! This is a perfect example of political correctness run amok. I'm sure that some schools probably already discourage kids from reading the papers that created the greatest, most free nation on the face of the earth.
For the life of me I can't think of what is so homophobic, racist,-other than references to slaves in the Constitution- or misogynistic about theses documents that they might be unsafe for children to read! This is what we have come to as a people and a nation. The founders must be wondering if we really deserve what they by the Grace of God gave us.
Well I just have to shake my head and call on anyone who reads this to respectfully contact Wilder Publications by clicking the link I just posted and ask them to remove this offensive and odious warning from their books. It's time that people with common sense demand that politically correct nuts-who are always so worried about offending someone else- stop offending us!!
