They started by asking how people felt about having the lesson at all, and in our pretty &#8220;blue&#8221; ward there was some frustration. But as we proceeded&#8211;and the teachers stuck pretty darn close to the official material&#8211;I think people realized that celebrating the Constitution, the rule of law, pluralism, and the right to pursue happiness as you see fit is actually low-key defiance of the current administration. I would not be surprised if that was President Oaks&#8217; intention.    Not that anyone came out and said anything of the kind&#8211;people were quite good about not being partisan.<\/span>&rdquo; <span class=\"comment-date\">Jun 2, 16:46<\/span><\/div><\/li><li class=\"recentcomments recent-comment\"><div class=\"comment-wrap\"><span class=\"comment-author-link\">Marcia Nielsen<\/span> on <span class=\"comment-post\"><a href=\"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/2026\/06\/53694\/#comment-562627\">A Review: Blood Vessels: Vigilante Violence in the American West<\/a><\/span>: &ldquo;<span class=\"comment-excerpt\">Sounds interesting!
