The bulletin was based on the Atlantic <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/08\/17\/yes-the-rosary-is-a-weapon\/\">Article<\/a> About rosary prayer beads being an a \u201cweapon\u201d The <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2020\/08\/24\/rnc-denounces-splc-as-radical-organization-that-inspired-shooting-at-conservative-organization-eight-years-ago\/\">grifting hate group<\/a> Known as the Southern Poverty Law Center. The Richmond field office continues to believe that Catholics who support conservative views or prefer Latin Mass are a threat, despite the retraction.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Department of Justice and FBI, as well as the federal government, have demonstrated their commitment to transparency. <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/09\/19\/democrats-beg-doj-to-target-desantis-abbott-for-transporting-illegal-aliens-after-biden-did-same-thing\/\">repeatedly<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/justice-department\/\">targeted<\/a> conservatives for their speech and beliefs, it might be good to consider some warning signs that possibly landed traditional, faithful Catholics on the radar of law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>As someone who attends the traditional Latin Mass and knows many traditional Catholics across the country, I think I know several things that prompted the memo.<\/p>\n<p> 1. Interest in Homeschooling <\/p>\n<p>A common interest in Latin Mass parishes and among traditional Catholics is homeschooling. This should not be surprising given the <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/10\/17\/how-much-porn-do-libraries-and-schools-have-to-sponsor-to-get-defunded\/\">degeneracy<\/a> and filth in U.S. public schools. Of course, another reason is that many Latin Mass Catholics take seriously the biblical directive that parents are the primary educators of their children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParents have the first responsibility for the education of their children. They bear witness to this responsibility first by <em>creating a home<\/em> where tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and disinterested service are the rule,\u201d the Catechism of the Catholic Church <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scborromeo.org\/ccc\/para\/2223.htm\">states<\/a>. \u201cThe home is well suited for <em>education in the virtues<\/em>. This requires an apprenticeship in self-denial, sound judgment, and self-mastery\u2014the preconditions of all true freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It just drips with radicalism. \u201cForgiveness\u201d and \u201cself-denial\u201d are obvious codewords for white supremacy, I assume the FBI would say.<\/p>\n<p>Given that faithful Christians are concerned about the moral upbringing of their children, it makes sense they would gravitate to flexible educational options that put parents and kids in charge. But we already know that the Department of Justice views parents who want more say in what their kids are taught as similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/10\/28\/the-school-board-domestic-terrorism-dumpster-fire-proves-parents-are-winning-ground\/\">domestic terrorists<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>That is why U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/10\/11\/biden-administration-parents-who-oppose-racism-are-domestic-terrorists\/\">ordered<\/a> federal law enforcement to look for ways to prosecute parents and other citizens who spoke out at public school board meetings against critical race theory, <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2016\/08\/19\/pressed-by-common-core-and-lgbt-agenda-more-families-homeschool\/\">sexualized curricula<\/a>, and lockdown policies. People who opt out of the government system are usually seen as a threat by those in charge.<\/p>\n<p>So it makes sense the FBI would be concerned about parents who have opted out of the public school program. After all, the federal government has lost control over what those kids learn and can\u2019t make those kids wear masks and <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/11\/11\/i-used-to-think-school-vaccine-mandates-made-sense-but-the-covid-jab-requirement-has-changed-everything\/\">accept state-mandated medical treatments<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p> 2.
