Bill Ayers<\/a>, after avoiding prosecution on domestic terrorism charges, famously stated, “Guilty as hell, free as a bird\u2014it\u2019s a great country.” Well, he really hasn’t changed much. He has just adopted a more peaceful strategy in trying to ruin America.<\/p>\n

Yesterday the Daily Caller<\/a> reported that Bill Ayers has signed a letter urging the United Nations<\/a> to investigate the closing of 49 Chicago<\/a> elementary schools<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The Midwest<\/a> Coalition for Human Rights<\/a> sent the missive to the Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights<\/a> in Geneva, Switzerland<\/a> this week.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The letter says that the closing of the schools is causing massive human rights violations.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The letter argues that the 49 school closings violate human rights because they affect black families disproportionately, because they force students to cross gang lines to get to the new schools they will attend, because class sizes will be slightly larger and because the school closings happened despite the objections of some people.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The dispatch asks the U.N. to \u201curge the United States<\/a> to investigate and prevent these human rights violations.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not clear how or if the U.N.\u2019s human rights office will act. The U.N. has no power to direct or regulate any federal, state or municipal government in the United States. The international body is, of course, free to conduct inquiries and issue findings, however.<\/strong><\/p>\n

An American city trying to balance its budget by closing schools and consolidating their educational program is running the risk of being investigated by the United Nations. This is not acceptable. First of all, according to a website called betterworldcampaign.org<\/a>, America pays 22 percent of the regular UN budget and 27 percent of the peacekeeping budget. I really think we need to take a good look at what we are paying for. While we are at it, I think we should strongly encourage the United Nations to find a new home.<\/p>\n

Bill Ayers was a domestic terrorist. He wanted to overthrow the American government. Now he has signed a letter asking the U.N. to take action undermining American sovereignty. I really don’t think he has changed much.<\/p>\n
