I noticed that this case was proceeding.<\/p>\n

This Article<\/a> is short.<\/p>\n

Essentially a high school girl wore a Romney \/ Ryan T-shirt to class. It’s alleged that her teacher told her to leave the room and that wearing that T-Shirt was akin to wearing a KKK outfit. (Neither of which is banned in America, if I recall both are still protected by the first amendment.<\/em>).<\/p>\n

A KKK outfit? Really? Had I been a student in that school I’d have shown up the next day in a Nazi Uniform. With the added touch of putting an Obama \/ Democratic Party logo below the swastika. At least then I’d have been sent home for just cause. I’m assuming that the school has some kind of dress code that precludes something as blatant as a Nazi uniform.<\/em><\/p>\n

The teacher went on to say that the school was Democratic.<\/p>\n

Clearly the teacher forgot the other definitions of \u00a0democratic.<\/p>\n

Websters says<\/p>\n

1) “of, relating to, or favoring democracy”.<\/p>\n

2) “often capitalized:<\/em>\u00a0of or relating to on of the two major political parties in the United States evolving in the early 19th century from the anti-federalists and the Democratic-Republican party and associated in modern times with policies of broad social reform and internationalism.”<\/p>\n

3) “relating to, appealing to, or available to the broad masses of the people”<\/p>\n

4) “favoring equality: not snobbish”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yes I know that the teacher was speaking about the party\u2026 But I’ve noticed recently that the average members of the Democratic party\u2026 the citizens claiming to be Democrats often don’t practice what they preach.<\/p>\n

The school and the teacher are being taken to court for violation of the girls first amendment rights. But the young lady has since transferred to a different school and was apparently threatened by other students due to the teachers action.<\/p>\n

I’m ambivalent about the lawsuit thing.<\/p>\n

I wouldn’t mind seeing the teacher punished.<\/p>\n

Not because they expressed their opinion. But because they in one moment destroyed the concept that everyone has a right to speak their mind. The teacher used their power in the classroom to create a mob mentality. Us vs. THEM!<\/p>\n

The teacher instituted a CLASS distinction. They created a situation where clearly the ruling class (We’re Democrats) had the ability to oppress anyone that disagreed with them.<\/p>\n

The oppression came in this case in the form of the young lady being sent home from school. And subsequently when she was threatened by her peers.<\/p>\n

In our society we must listen to differing opinions. It’s our duty<\/span><\/strong> to protect the rights of people to speak their mind. EVEN if we ourselves disagree vehemently with their position.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
