Civil Defense

Restoring American Sovereignty and Leadership > Domestic > Civil Defense
We support a national and local civil defense system. We urge Congress to rescind all gun laws infringing upon our constitutional rights.
(plank deleted)

This plank's point is unclear. Civil defense is still alive. It has shifted away from responding to miliary attack and is now focused on natural and general disasters.

Gun laws are handled elsewhere.

Educating Our Children > Private Education
Parents have the fundamental right and responsibility for educating their children, and the state should not have power to force any parent or guardian to send their children to public school. Parents or guardians may choose to educate their children in private school without government interference of any kind. Home education is legally recognized as private education. We urge the Legislature to require cities and counties to exempt private school students from daytime curfew ordinances. WeWe urge the Legislature to require University Interscholastic League (UIL) to open participation to private schoolsstudents who do not attend public school.
Reason:

There is no credible movement to force public schooling on those who make other reasonable choices.

On "Home education is legally recognized as private education.": the platform is not where you interpret law, even if that's true.

Daytime curfiew is handled elsewhere.

misuse of platform, redundant, paranoid
