Hostage Drill at NJ School Features Mock ‘Christian Terrorists’ By Jim Brown

The head of a national, Texas-based pro-family group says a recent hostage drill at a New Jersey high school, which portrayed conservative Christians as terrorists, is reflective of a dangerous philosophy that has become prevalent in many parts of America, where it is having negative effects on education.

A local paper reports that a drill at Burlington Township High School in New Jersey involved police portraying mock gunmen, described as “members of a right-wing fundamentalist group called the ‘New Crusaders’ who don’t believe in the separation of church and state.” The fake gunmen were said to have been “seeking justice because the daughter of one [member] had been expelled for praying before class.”

Historian and constitutional expert David Barton is president of WallBuilders, a national pro-family organization that distributes historical, legal, and statistical information and helps citizens become active in their local schools and communities. He says the stereotyping used in the high school’s drill is an accurate indicator of what is being taught in public schools in the Northeast region of the country.

“It’s been interesting to see the indoctrination that goes on,” Barton notes, “where we’ve had in the same region, even federal courts up in that same area, say it’s okay to start teaching second graders about homosexuality and homosexual ‘marriage.’”
