Are you smarter than a spring-breaker?
Hordes of bikini-clad spring breakers are being mocked mercilessly on-line for failing to reply easy questions from the US citizenship check — with one wildly declaring that Asia borders Canada and that the aptly named Pentagon is formed like a sq..
The footage, posted on-line by conservative social media character Kaitlin Bennett over the weekend, has led some jeering critics so say it’s proof that the American training system has failed, and the US Division of Training needs to be disbanded.
The clip, which racked up greater than 150,000 views in its first 48 hours, showcased scores of faculty children in swimsuits in Clearwater Seaside, Fla., incorrectly firing off solutions to questions concerning the 2nd Modification, who the US declared independence from and whose face is plastered on the $100 invoice.
Requested to call a US state that borders Canada, one dumb-struck pupil mentioned “Asia” whereas one other mentioned, “I didn’t even know Canada had a border.”
One younger girl, who confessed she is majoring in elementary training, recommended the US gained independence from Spain in the course of the Revolutionary Battle, the video reveals.
One other confidently mentioned the Civil Battle was fought between the “East and West” and that the 2nd Modification is the suitable to vote.
Others, in the meantime, insisted the Pentagon constructing was formed like a sq. and that there have been solely seven US senators.
When one was requested what number of justices are on the Supreme Courtroom, one woman sought to make clear: “So if you say that, do you imply just like the FBI?”
Reactions to the clip, posted on the Liberty Hangout YouTube web page, was swift — and unforgiving — on social media.
“I’ve by no means seen a greater video proving why the division of training wanted to be abolished,” one individual tweeted.
“The US Division of Training actually did their job, I see,” one other wrote on X.
One viewer griped, “Defund the division of training already. That is embarrassing.”
And one person raged that “public training is a dismal failure” — arguing that “each eighth grader ought to know this and undoubtedly earlier than graduating highschool.”
