She is not allowed to talk about racial charged subjects in the classroom, but the principle wears a Black Pride tshirt to registration day.

She is not allowed to discuss her Christian upbringing because it could offend someone.

You wouldn't believe some of the other stuff in the school handbook.

I know that there needs to be rules for the kids to follow, but at what point do we allow them to express themselves without fear of repercussion in a learning environment.

Let me tell you if someone strikes my child and she gets in trouble for defending herself we will be going to see a lawyer.

You can go back in time and thank the Fonda-worshipping hippies.
