Outrageous ruling by 9th Circuit

Way out left in San Francisco, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court is at it again, as reported by WND's Kevin McCullough:

This week the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said simply, "There is no fundamental right of parents to be the exclusive provider of information regarding sexual matters to their children." In doing so, the most overruled appeals court in the land, in essence, spit in the face of parents who seek to bring up their children, "in the way they should go."

The case involved a California public-school survey that asked children – among other things – "if they ever thought about having sex or touching other people's 'private parts' and whether they could 'stop thinking about having sex.'"

Parents who had been offended at this gross invasion of privacy into the lives of first, third, and fifth graders, had sought legal action to force educators in California to stop such highly inappropriate questioning. The parents maintained that they had the right to be the sole judge over who educated their children in sexual matters.
...
in defiance of common sense and the sensibility of good parents everywhere, the arrogant 9th U.S. Circuit said, "there is no fundamental right of parents to be the exclusive provider of information regarding sexual matters to their children ... Parents have no due process or privacy right to override the determinations of public schools as to the information to which their children will be exposed while enrolled as students."

In other words, conscientious parents are not only not welcomed, they are illegal.

The court went on to add, "no such specific right can be found in the deep roots of the nation's history and tradition or implied in the concept of ordered liberty."

This is why U.S. Supreme Court picks matter.
