tell Biden to kiss off!
This goes FAR beyond guns. The issue is just who has the right to tell local schools what to do.
But “Biden” is running a con as old as time:
Back when the Vikings were busy pillaging English villages, the English raised a special tax called the Danegeld — as in “Danish gold.” The Vikings would show up, and either they’d collect the Danegeld or get on with the serious business of raping and pillaging. The locals could put up a fight but it was usually easier to pay up. Once the Danegeld was paid, however, the Vikings knew which villages were easy marks — and they’d be back for more.
Hence the old expression, “Once you pay the Danegeld, you’ll never be rid of the Dane.”
… But the “free” money always comes with strings attached. Worse, the strings only increase over time. And even worse than that is the implicit threat that the money will stop. That’s what Biden’s Department of Education is doing to archery and hunting programs: do as we say or you don’t get the money.
… The modern American formula of the old English expression is, “Once you take the Danegeld, you’ll never be rid of the Dane.”
