9/11 Coloring Book


Teaching kids "truth" about terrorism

"Just in time for the 10th anniversary of September 11, Really Big Coloring Books, Inc., has released "We Shall Never Forget 9/11" -- a "serious children's book," according to the release. In the book, kids will learn "what happens when a terrorist who orders others to bomb our peace loving wonderful nation" and that "terrorism is human made and is very old; it comes in people of all shapes, sizes, and colors."

Really Big Coloring Books publisher Wayne Bell told TPM that when children are exposed to the events on 9/11 -- usually through two-hour specials on cable news -- there is a sense of "fright" that the events are ongoing.

The coloring book, Bell said, is "basically a representation of what happened" on 9/11. "It's a clean, honest read," he said. "It's not degrading or anything like that.'

The book carries a "PG" rating, and there is one page that depicts the raid on Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan. The image shows a Navy SEAL firing at bin Laden."

I'd like to burn some of those books. A bigger bunch of bold-faced lies was never written in something so harmless as a coloring book. Damn those miserable fucks for spreading their racist hatred to the blank-slate minds of innocent kids!

So now little kids will think it is perfectly normal for the good guys to murder Muslims everywhere they go. Perfectly normal and acceptable.
