I deny you have to right to education if that right involves stealing from your neighbors to pay for it. And given what I have seen you post, someone is denying you this right.

That isn't a red herring.
Public schools come from tax money. You say that that public schools come from stealing from your neighbors. I am just simply asking you "Is it stealing because of the taxes, or something else?" That is implied.
