In Florida, US Republicans are following the footsteps of Chairman Mao and are trying to start their very own Cultural Revolution, where students could decide what the teachers teach - or sue them, if they don´t obey the young GOP Guards:

In the Florida legislature, House Republicans, on the Choice and Innovation Committee, recently voted to pass a bill that threatens to restrain academic scholars. The law would allow students to sue teachers for beliefs that do not concur with conservative perspectives. If, for example, professors argue that evolution is a scientific fact instead of a theory, and if they don’t devote equal time to creationism, under this bill, initiated by conservative David Horowitz’s campaign, students can sue the professor for being biased.
